Mucopolysaccharide (MPS) and related diseases are Lysosomal Storage Diseases. These are rare, life-limiting, progressive, genetic conditions caused by the shortage of a particular enzyme.The cause of MPS I is inherited genetic mutations on chromosome 4 that leads to deficiency in the lysosomal enzyme a-L-iduronidase. MPS I is inherited by an autosomal recessive gene that they receive from each parent.However, possible treatments are being investigated in several clinical trials. Laronidase (Aldurazyme) is an enzyme replacement therapy for patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type I, a progressive, debilitating, and fatal genetic disease for which specific drug treatments currently are available.
