Central nervous system pathology in preclinical MPS IIIB dogs reveals progressive changes in clinically relevant brain regions

Abstract Mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB (MPS IIIB; Sanfilippo syndrome B) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by the deficiency of alpha-N-acetylglucosaminidase activity, leading to increased levels of nondegraded heparan sulfate (HS). A mouse model has been useful to evalua...
