Table 3.

Select polar lipid species from myelin extracted from the corpus callosum of heterozygous dogs (CTL, n = 4), untreated dogs affected with mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS, n = 4) and MPS I dogs treated with recombinant human alpha-l-iduronidase into the cerebrospinal fluid every three months from age 4m to 21m (MTr, N = 4). Data are expressed as mean ± SD nmol/mg protein. PC, phosphatidylcholine; SM, sphingomyelin; DSM, dihydrosphingomyelin; PS, phosphatidylserine; PI, phosphatidylinositol; PA, phosphatidic acid; e, ether-linked. (A) Polar lipid species that were low in affected dogs despite treatment (P < 0.05 for overall ANOVA, and Bonferroni-adjusted P < 0.05 for t-tests comparing CTL vs. MPS and CTL vs. MTr). SM, ePC, PS, and ePS species comprise the majority. Only one PC species remained significantly low with treatment. (B) Polar lipid species that were low in MPS, but were not significantly low in MTr dogs (P < 0.05 for overall ANOVA, and Bonferroni-adjusted P < 0.05 for t-test comparing CTL vs. MPS, and no significant difference between CTL vs. MTr).

(A) Species significantly low in affected dogs even with
treatment
(B) Species low in affected dogs, but improved (not
significantly low) with treatment

Note: Although species in panel B may be considered improved as defined by statistical testing, the degree of improvement in many species still appears incomplete.
