Alglucosidase alfa
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Alglucosidase alfa (rhGAA) is a recombinant human acid α-glucosidase. Alglucosidase alfa is taken up by cells via the cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) pathway and transported to lysosomes, where GAA degrades glycogen in the acidic lysosomal environment. Alglucosidase alfa is applicable to research related to lysosomal glycogen metabolism and glycogen storage diseases.

Description
In Vivo
Neither alglucosidase alfa (120 µg; intracranial injection; single dose; analyzed 7 days post-injection) nor alglucosidase alfa (13.2-17.2 µg/day; intracranial injection; continuous infusion; 14-30 days) reduces the number of Lafora bodies, brain glycogen levels, or improves behavioral outcomes in Epm2a-/- knockout mice with Lafora disease[2].
Alglucosidase alfa (40 mg/kg; i.v.; once weekly; 4 weeks) reduces hepatic glycogen accumulation by 21% in GSD IV mice, but does not significantly decrease glycogen in skeletal muscle; a dose of 20 mg/kg does not produce a significant reduction in glycogen accumulation in the tested tissues[4].
Long-term administration of alglucosidase alfa (20 mg/kg; intravenous injection; once every two weeks; 2 doses total) fails to improve muscle function, myofiber size, or dysferlin localization in Gaa-KO mice[1].
Following administration of alglucosidase alfa (20 mg/kg; i.v.; once every 2 weeks, for a total of 4 doses), extensive Lamp1/LC3-positive autophagic accumulation remains in the muscle fibers of Gaa-KO mice, with over 95% of the examined muscle fibers still containing such autophagic accumulation[1].
Alglucosidase alfa (20 mg/kg; i.v.; weekly; 12 weeks) induces anti-rhGAA-specific IgG responses in E4-8GAAKO Pompe mice; upon re-exposure after a 4-week withdrawal, the antibody response is further elevated in the rhGAA-alone group, whereas the group receiving combined treatment with low-dose Methotrexate (HY-14519) maintains low antibody levels[3].
Alglucosidase alfa (20 or 40 mg/kg; i.v.; once weekly; 4 weeks) dose-dependently increases GAA activity in multiple tissues of Gbe1ys/ys GSD IV mice; GAA activity in the liver increases by 29-fold and 48-fold in the 20 mg/kg and 40 mg/kg groups, respectively, while that in the heart increases by 1.7-fold and 2.8-fold, respectively, with only a slight increase observed in the quadriceps femoris[4].

Dosage:20 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.v.; biweekly; 2 doses
-
Result:Reduced glycogen storage by 27.5% in quadriceps, 21.2% in gastrocnemius, 14.6% in triceps, and 45.2% in heart.
Showed limited reduction in lysosomal Lamp1 signal in quadriceps, heart, and diaphragm, with greater effect in type I muscle fibers.
Did not reduce autophagic buildup (over 95% of muscle fibers retained autophagic accumulation).
Had no effect on phosphorylation levels of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (p-GSK S9) or glycogen synthase (p-GS S641).

Result:Did not improve muscle fiber size (minimum Feret’s diameter of quadriceps fibers was 32 μm, similar to vehicle-treated mice).
Did not reduce intracellular accumulation of dysferlin in quadriceps or triceps.
Did not improve grip strength or wire-hang test performance over 5 months of treatment.
Left prominent areas of autophagic debris visible in muscle fibers via second harmonic generation/2-photon excited fluorescence imaging.

Dosage:20 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.v.; biweekly; 12 doses
-
Result:Resulted in only a very small increase in quadriceps muscle fiber minimum Feret’s diameter compared with vehicle-treated mice.
Did not reduce abnormal intracellular dysferlin accumulation in quadriceps and triceps.

Administration:i.c.v.; single injection; 7 days post-injection analysis
-
Result:Did not reduce the number of Lafora bodies in the hippocampal CA1 region following single i.c.v. injections of 120 µg, 240 µg, or 480 µg.

-
Dosage:20 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.v.; weekly
