ABSTRACT Long‐chain fatty acid oxidation disorders (LC‐FAOD) are rare inherited defects of mitochondrial β‐oxidation that impair energy generation during fasting or metabolic stress. Clinical manifestations range from neonatal hypoketotic hypoglycemia and cardiomyopathy to hepatopathy, recurrent rhabdomyolysis, and chronic myopathy.

Targeting PIKfyve: Chemical Biology and Drug Discovery Insights
PIKfyve inhibitors have progressed from niche chemical probes to powerful tools for interrogating endolysosomal biology, enabled by rapid and robust cellular phenotypes. Compounds such as apilimod establish PIKfyve as a druggable lipid kinase, while agents like vacuolin‐1 underscore the importance of distinguishing true target engagement from ...

Corneal dystrophies: Molecular genetic studies and mutational analysis of candidate genes [PDF]
Corneal dystrophies are a clinically heterogeneous group of rare inherited ocular disorders that often result in a reduction in visual acuity. These dystrophies can be inherited as either an autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive trait, which can ...
