Abstract
Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are multisystem inherited metabolic disorders caused by dysfunctional lysosomal enzymes, resulting in the accumulation of undegraded macromolecules in a variety of organs/tissues, including the central nervous system (CNS). Treatments include enzyme replacement therapy, stem/progenitor cell transplantation and in vivo gene therapy. However, these treatments are not fully effective in treating the CNS as neither enzymes, stem cells nor viral vectors efficiently cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Here we will review the latest advancements in improving delivery of different therapeutic agents to the CNS and comment upon outstanding questions in the field of neurological LSDs.
