Biochemical Mechanisms beyond Glycosphingolipid Accumulation in Fabry Disease: Might They Provide Additional Therapeutic Treatments?

Giovanni Bertoldi, Ilaria Caputo, Giulia Driussi, Lucia Federica Stefanelli et autres

Fabry disease is a rare X-linked disease characterized by deficient expression and activity of alpha-galactosidase A (α-GalA) with consequent lysosomal accumulation of glycosphingolipid in various organs. Currently, enzyme replacement therapy is the cornerstone of the treatment of all Fabry patients, although in …

Calcineurin-Inhibitor-Induced Hypomagnesemia in Kidney Transplant Patients: A Monocentric Comparative Study between Sucrosomial Magnesium and Magnesium Pidolate Supplementation

Lucia Federica Stefanelli, Marianna Alessi, Giovanni Bertoldi, Valentina Rossato et autres

Magnesium (Mg) contributes to DNA stability, protein synthesis and cardiac excitability, while Mg deficiency leads to increased cardiovascular mortality, diabetes, hyperparathyroidism and risk of fractures. In kidney transplant patients, calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) downregulating Mg channel TRPM6 in the distal collecting tubule induce …

The Effect of Green Tea as an Adjuvant to Enzyme Replacement Therapy on Oxidative Stress in Fabry Disease: A Pilot Study

Giovanni Bertoldi, Gianni Carraro, Verdiana Ravarotto, Valentina Di Vico et autres

Enzymatic replacement therapy (ERT) is not very effective in halting the progression of Fabry disease (FD) toward cardiovascular (CV)-renal remodeling, particularly in case of late diagnosis. FD patients have increased oxidative stress (OS), critical for the induction of CV-renal remodeling. We investigated …
