Abstract

The invention provides methods of diagnosing or monitoring lysosomal storage disorders based on detecting levels of saposins, LAMPs and/or α-glucosidase in patient sample. Elevated levels of saposins and/or LAMPs are indicative of a disorder. Elevated levels of α glucosidase are indicative of some types of lysosomal storage disorders and decreased levels of α glucosidase are indicative of other types of lysosomal storage disorder. In some methods, the profile of elevation of different saposins, LAMPs and α glucosidase allows distinction between different types of lysosomal storage disorder.
