Lysosomal Storage Disorders
View through CrossRef
Lysosomal storage disorders are characterized by the presence of nondegraded material in endosomal / lysosomal compartments. Any process that interferes with the lysosomal degradation or endosomal / lysosomal transport of molecules can give rise to storage. The cause may be genetic in nature or environmental, as is the case in drug-induced lipidoses or when undegradable materials are present. In this chapter we discuss the genetic lysosomal storage disorders.
