Tissue GAG reduction after ERT with and without tolerance or higher-dose therapy.

In organs with large amounts of nonspecific uptake by reticuloendothelial cells (liver, spleen, and lymph node; AC), there is less of a difference in GAG storage reduction with dose or tolerance status. In organs without high levels of reticuloendothelial cells (renal cortex, renal medulla, and lung; DF), tolerance enhances GAG storage reduction to a greater extent than an increased dose.
