Glucocerebroside is a kind of soluble glycolipid, which is one of the components of cells and widely exists in human body. Can Gaucher's disease be cured? Let's talk about it
Can Gaucher's disease be cured?
Study on the recombination of Ceredase gene β- Glucocerebrosidase has a significant effect on prolonging the life span and improving the quality of life of patients. Most of the clinical symptoms were improved and the organs were no longer involved. It is mainly used in the treatment of Gaucher's disease type I. It is not an indication of enzyme replacement therapy for type III patients.
Using hematopoietic progenitor cells and myoblast transplantation, GBA gene was introduced into patients, and a large number of cells containing GBA gene were obtained in vivo through their proliferative characteristics to produce bioactive cells β- Glucocerebrosidase plays a long-term therapeutic role. 4. Symptomatic treatment
Splenectomy is suitable for patients with splenomegaly and hypersplenism, aged 4-5 years or above, which can improve the clinical symptoms. Splenectomy is recommended for type I and type III patients. Including support, nutrition, blood transfusion, etc. Type II patients also need pain relief, spasmolysis and so on.
