One of the oligosaccharidose is α-mannosidosis, an extremely rare and often undiagnosed disorder. It is characterized by a deficiency in the enzymatic activity of α-mannosidase, which is responsible for cleaving mannose from N-linked oligosaccharides. This study aimed to investigate the activity of α-mannosidase in dried blood spot (DBS) samples that had undergone screening for MPSs.engMucopolysaccharidosis (MPSs)Lysosomal Storage DisordersOligosaccharidosisα-mannosidaseDoenças GenéticasDifferential Diagnosis of Alpha-Mannosidosis in MPSsconference object
