Open AccessImagable 4T1 model for the study of late stage breast cancer
The 4T1 mouse mammary tumor cell line is one of only a few breast cancer models with the capacity to metastasize efficiently to sites affected in human breast cancer. Here we describe two 4T1 cell lines modifi...

Caprine mucopolysaccharidosis IIID
Mucopolysaccharidosis IIID (MPS IIID) is a lysosomal storage disease associated with deficient activity of the enzyme N-acetylglucosamine 6-sulfatase (EC 3.1.6.14), a lysosomal hydrolase in the heparan sulfate gl...

Caprine mucopolysaccharidosis IIID
Mucopolysaccharidosis type IIID (MPS IIID) is a lysosomal storage disorder resulting from lack of activity of the lysosomal hydrolase N-acetylglucosamine 6-sulfatase (6S) (EC 3.1.6.14). The syndrome is associated...

Infantile GM1 Gangliosidosis: Complete Morphology and Histochemistry of Two Autopsy Cases, with Particular Reference to Delayed Central Nervous System Myelination
Inborn metabolic errors causing lysosomal storage, such as β-galactosidase deficiency (GM1 gangliosidosis [GM1]), have well-recognized effects on cellular function and morphology. In some classically “neuronal” ...

An in vitro model for abnormal skeletal development in the lysosomal storage diseases
Lysosomal storage diseases such as GM1-gangliosidosis are associated with skeletal abnormalities. Radiological and histological studies, both in human and corresponding animal models, indicate retarded bone forma...

Identification of a developmentally regulated sialidase inEimeria tenella that is immunologically related to theTrypanosoma cruzi enzyme
Sporozoites and merozoites of three species ofEimeria, E. tenella, E. maxima, andE. necatrix, that cause diarrhea in chickens worldwide, were examined for their expression of sialidase (SA) activity. The enzyme w...
