Maroteaux - Lamy syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis type VI, MPS VI) is a lysosomal storage disease resulting from insufficient enzymatic activity for degradation of the specific glycosaminoglycans (GAG) chondroitin sulphate (CS) and dermatan sulphate (DS). Among the most pronounced MPS VI clinical manifestations caused by cellular accumulation of excess CS and DS are eye disorders, in particular those that affect the cornea. Ocular manifestations are not treated by the current standard of care, enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), leaving patients with a significant unmet need. Using in vitro and in vivo models, we previously demonstrated the potential of the β-D-xyloside, odiparcil, as an oral GAG clearance therapy for MPS VI. Here, we characterized the eye phenotypes in MPS VI arylsulfatase B deficient mice (Arsb-) and studied the effects of odiparcil treatment in early and established disease models. Severe levels of opacification and GAG accumulation were detected in the eyes of MPS VI Arsb- mice. Histological examination of MPS VI Arsb- eyes showed an aggregate of corneal phenotypes, including reduction in the corneal epithelium thickness and number of epithelial cell layers, and morphological malformations in the stroma. In addition, colloidal iron staining showed specifically GAG accumulation in the cornea. Orally administered odiparcil markedly reduced GAG accumulation in the eyes of MPS VI Arsb- mice in both disease models and restored the corneal morphology (epithelial layers and stromal structure). In the early disease model of MPS VI, odiparcil partially reduced corneal opacity area, but did not affect opacity area in the established model. Analysis of GAG types accumulating in the MPS VI Arsb- eyes demonstrated major contribution of DS and CS, with some increase in heparan sulphate (HS) as well and all were reduced with odiparcil treatment. Taken together, we further reveal the potential of odiparcil to be an effective therapy for eye phenotypes associated with MPS VI disease.
