Global Learning Objectives

  • Get introduced to molecular and cellular mechanisms as related to different lysosomal functions and disease pathology and progression in LSDs,

  • Gain knowledge about burden/role of inflammatory pathways leading to cell death and the manifestation of LSDs,

  • Get introduced to the role of genomics and metabolomics approaches in precision or individualized medicine,

  • Gain insights into current treatment strategies and findings from preclinical studies in different model systems and clinical trials towards novel therapies,

  • Discuss the efficacy, safety of clinical studies involving next-generation enzyme replacement therapies that utilize hyper-mannosylation and other techniques such as antibody peptides and targeting sequences for improved tissue penetration,

  • Review pharmacochaperones and small molecular approaches as disease-specific or symptomatic treatment of various LSDs,

  • Learn about novel tools and technologies that incorporate big data and machine learning,

  • Discuss the clinical utility of sphingolipid and other biomarkers in the diagnosis, and therapeutic management of LSDs.
