Lysosomal storage of oligosaccharide and glycosphingolipid in imino sugar treated cells.

Sandhoff and Tay-Sachs disease are autosomal recessive GM2 gangliosidoses where a deficiency of lysosomal beta-hexosaminidase results in storage of glycoconjugates. Imino sugar (2-acetamido-1,4-imino-1,2,4-trideoxy-L-arabinitol) inhibition of beta-hexosaminidase in murine RAW264.7 macrophage-like ce...
