β-hexosaminidase enzyme levels are expressed as the average ± SEM for each group. Results are presented as nmol/min/mg tissue. * indicates p < 0.05, One-way ANOVA, Tukey’s post-hoc test, Normal vs. MPS I. ** indicates p < 0.001, One-way ANOVA, Tukey’s post-hoc test, Normal vs. MPS I untreated or Normal vs. MPS I SDT.
