Researching Lysosomal Storage Disorders (ReLyS)
Researching Lysosomal Storage Disorders (ReLyS) involves studying rare genetic conditions where faulty enzymes cause harmful substances to accumulate within cell structures called lysosomes. These accumulations disrupt normal cell function, leading to symptoms like organ damage and developmental issues. ReLyS aims to better understand these diseases, identify markers for diagnosis, and develop effective treatments or cures. The research combines genetics, biochemistry, and clinical studies to improve outcomes and quality of life for affected individuals.
