Assessing olfactory functions in patients with Barth syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Barth syndrome is a rare X-linked disease affecting less than 200 individuals worldwide. Several comorbidities have been associated with the pathology and, among those, cardiac myopathy and neutropenia are the most life threatening.

Mechano‐energetic aspects of Barth syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2021
AbstractEnergy‐demanding organs like the heart are strongly dependent on oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria. Oxidative phosphorylation is governed by the respiratory chain located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The inner mitochondrial membrane is the only cellular membrane with significant amounts of the phospholipid cardiolipin, and ...

Generation of a homozygous TAZ knockout hESCs line by CRISPR/Cas9 system

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2022
Tafazzin (TAZ), a mitochondrial transacylase located on chromosome X, is required for the production of the mitochondrial phospholipid cardiolipin. Mutations occurring in the TAZ gene will lead to Barth syndrome, an X-linked recessive disease generally ...

Deficiency in Cardiolipin Reduces Doxorubicin-Induced Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial Damage in Human B-Lymphocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Cardiolipin (CL) is an inner mitochondrial membrane phospholipid which plays an important role in mitochondrial function. Perturbation in CL biosynthesis alters mitochondrial bioenergetics causing a severe genetic disorder commonly known as Barth ...

Late diagnosis of Barth syndrome in a 39‐year‐old patient with non‐compaction cardiomyopathy and neutropenia

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2020
Barth syndrome is a rare X‐linked recessive disorder characterized by a broad spectrum of clinical features including cardiac and skeletal myopathy, neutropenia, exercise intolerance, and growth delay.

Current Knowledge on the Role of Cardiolipin Remodeling in the Context of Lipid Oxidation and Barth Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Barth syndrome (BTHS, OMIM 302060) is a genetic disorder caused by variants of the TAFAZZIN gene (G 4.5, OMIM 300394). This debilitating disorder is characterized by cardio- and skeletal myopathy, exercise intolerance, and neutropenia.

Re-Expression of Tafazzin Isoforms in TAZ-Deficient C6 Glioma Cells Restores Cardiolipin Composition but Not Proliferation Rate and Alterations in Gene Expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Tafazzin—an acyltransferase—is involved in cardiolipin (CL) remodeling. CL is associated with mitochondrial function, structure and more recently with cell proliferation. Various tafazzin isoforms exist in humans.
