They accumulate in cells within tiny structures called lysosomes. This leads to dysfunction the cells, resulting in dysfunction of tissues and organs. There are many different types of MPS including: Hurler; Hunter; Sanfillipo; Morquio; Maroteaus-Lamy and Sly.<br><br><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Donations:<br></span>During these difficult financial times we all face it is obviously more difficult for charitable organisations due to government cuts and individuals feeling the pinch.
