Published in 2019 at "Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ymgmr.2019.100494

Abstract: The pharmacological chaperone migalastat is indicated for the treatment of Fabry disease in patients with an amenable GLA variant. Amenability is determined by an in vitro, good laboratory practice (GLP)-validated assay using HEK293 cells (GLP-HEK… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Genetics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1038/gim.2016.122

Abstract: Purpose:Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the α-galactosidase A gene. Migalastat, a pharmacological chaperone, binds to specific mutant forms of α-galactosidase A to restore lysosomal activity.Methods:A pharmacogenetic assay was… read more here.
