Pathologic substrate of gastropathy in Anderson-Fabry disease
In both classic and late-onset AFD, mutations of the GLA gene cause deficient activity of the alpha-galactosidase enzyme resulting in intracellular accumulation of the undigested substrate. Gastrointestinal symptoms (GI) are common but non-specific and imputed to the AFD, irrespective of the demonst...

description | In both classic and late-onset AFD, mutations of the GLA gene cause deficient activity of the alpha-galactosidase enzyme resulting in intracellular accumulation of the undigested substrate. Gastrointestinal symptoms (GI) are common but non-specific and imputed to the AFD, irrespective of the demonstration of substrate accumulation in GI cells. We demonstrate substrate accumulation in gastric epithelial, vascular, and nerve cells of patients with classic AFD and, vice versa, absence of accumulation in late-onset AFD and controls. |
