Tay-Sachs disease
Human medical condition
Gaucher's disease
human disease characterized by deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase which results in the accumulation of harmful quantities of the glycolipid glucocerebroside throughout the body
Fabry disease
rare human genetic lysosomal storage disorder
Canavan disease
neurodegenerative disorder
Krabbe disease
congenital disorder of the nervous system
metachromatic leukodystrophy
human disease
Niemann-Pick disease
severe metabolic disorders in which sphingomyelin accumulates in lysosomes in cells
juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis
extremely rare and fatal autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder in humans
Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease
hypomyelinating leukodystrophy characterized by impaired myelin formation, nystagmus, spastic quadriplegia, ataxia, and developmental delay that has material basis in mutation in the PLP1 gene on chromosome Xq22
Farber lipogranulomatosis
extremely rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease marked by a deficiency in the enzyme ceramidase
cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis
autosomal recessive form of xanthomatosis.
Wolman disease
autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism that results in the body not producing enough active lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) enzyme
Sandhoff disease
lysosomal storage disorder from the GM2 gangliosidosis family, characterised by central nervous system degeneration

neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis
human disease
mucosulfatidosis
lysosomal storage disease
sphingolipidosis
Sphingolipidoses are a class of lipid storage disorders or degenerative storage disorders caused by deficiency of an enzyme that is required for the catabolism of lipids that contain ceramide, also relating to sphingolipid metabolism. The main members of this group are Niemann–Pick disease, Fabry disease, Krabbe disease, Gaucher disease, Tay–Sachs disease and metachromatic leukodystrophy. They are generally inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion, but notably Fabry disease is X-linked recessive. Taken together, sphingolipidoses have an incidence of approximately 1 in 10,000, but substantia
gangliosidosis
Gangliosidosis contains different types of lipid storage disorders caused by the accumulation of lipids known as gangliosides. There are two distinct genetic causes of the disease. Both are autosomal recessive and affect males and females equally.
lipid storage disease
lysosomal storage disease that involves the accumulation of harmful amounts of lipids (fats) in some of the body's cells and tissues
gangliosidosis GM1
lysosomal storage disease
Schindler disease
Rare congenital metabolic disorder in humans.

Niemann–Pick disease, type C
autosomal recessive lipid storage disorder that is characterized by accumulation of cholesterol and sphingomyelins in cells of the viscera and the central nervous system
Jansky–Bielschowsky disease
autosomal recessive genetic disorder
neutral lipid storage disease
lipid storage disease that is characterized by accumulation of triglycerides in the cytoplasm of leukocytes, muscle, liver, fibroblasts, and other tissues
Tay-Sachs disease AB variant
extremely rare, severe genetic disorder characterized by progressive neurological decline due to ganglioside activator deficiency
