Mfsd8 Modulates Growth and the Early Stages of Multicellular Development in Dictyostelium discoideum

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
MFSD8 is a transmembrane protein that has been reported to transport chloride ions across the lysosomal membrane. Mutations in MFSD8 are associated with a subtype of Batten disease called CLN7 disease.

Exome sequencing is an efficient tool for variant late-infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis molecular diagnosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinoses (NCL) is a group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by epilepsy, visual failure, progressive mental and motor deterioration, myoclonus, dementia and reduced life expectancy.

Mutations in CLN7/MFSD8 are a common cause of variant late-infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis [PDF]

open access: yesBrain, 2009
The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs), the most common neurodegenerative disorders of childhood, are characterized by the accumulation of autofluorescent storage material mainly in neurons. Although clinically rather uniform, variant late-infantile onset NCL (vLINCL) is genetically heterogeneous with four major underlying genes identified so far ...

A Multistakeholder Perspective on Advancing Individualized Therapeutics

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 114, Issue 5, Page 994-1001, November 2023., 2023
Precision medicine has evolved from the application of pharmacogenetic biomarkers to the prospective development of targeted therapies in patients with specific molecular/genetic subtypes of disease to truly “N‐of‐1” medicines targeted to very small numbers of patients – in some cases, a single identified patient.

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses in children

open access: yesAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2021
Background: The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL) constitute a group of gray matter neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the accumulation of ceroid lipopigment in lysosomes in neurons and other cell types.

“Atypical” Phenotypes of Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis: The Argentine Experience in the Genomic Era

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2021
Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL) refers to a group of inherited lysosomal storage disorders characterized by the intracellular accumulation of ceroid-lipofuscin compounds and neurodegeneration.

A major facilitator superfamily domain 8 frameshift variant in a cat with suspected neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2020
A 2‐year‐old male domestic shorthair cat was presented for a progressive history of abnormal posture, behavior, and mentation. Menace response was absent bilaterally, and generalized tremors were identified on neurological examination.

AAV9/MFSD8 gene therapy is effective in preclinical models of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 7 disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2022
Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 7 (CLN7) disease is a lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the facilitator superfamily domain containing 8 (MFSD8) gene, which encodes a membrane-bound lysosomal protein, MFSD8.
