1. Lysosomal Diseases and Therapeutic Options: An Overview -- 2. Alternative Treatment Options: Enzyme Replacement and Small Molecule Therapies -- 3. Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Inborn Errors of Metabolism -- 4. Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Lysosomal Storage Disorders: Long Term Neurodevelopmental and Somatic Outcome -- 5.

Stem Cell therapy for lysosomal diseases (LSDs) is developing rapidly. This volume discusses the history, current practice and future perspectives of stem cells in inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) and provides an international perspective on progress, limitations, and future directions (e.g. gene therapy, iPS, ES) in the field. Beginning with an overview of these diseases, the book covers the breadth of this topic from treatment options, bone marrow transplantation, and alternative treatment options, through long-term outcomes and future perspectives.
