Biology of Cardiac Troponins: Emphasis on Metabolism
Understanding of the biology of endo- and exogenous molecules, in particular their metabolism, is not only of great theoretical importance, but also of high practical significance, since many molecules serve as drug targets or markers for the laboratory ...

Cardiac troponins (cTns) have long been the most valuable and specific biomarkers for detecting ischemic myocardial cells (MCs) injury, which is one of the key signs of myocardial infarction (MI).

Messenger RNA (mRNA) therapies are emerging in different disease areas, but have not yet reached the kidney field. Our aim was to study the feasibility to treat the genetic defect in cystinosis using synthetic mRNA in cell models and ctns −/− zebrafish ...

Transcriptional and Posttranscriptional Regulation of the CTNS Gene [PDF]
Cell cysteine (Cys) levels and/or the [Cys/CySS] redox potential have been shown to regulate mRNA levels of the CTNS gene, which encodes for a lysosomal cystine (CySS) carrier that is defective in cystinosis. To investigate the mechanisms involved CTNS mRNA regulation, different portions of the CTNS promotor were cloned into a luciferase vector and ...

Mutational spectrum of the CTNS gene in Italy [PDF]
Classic nephropathic or infantile cystinosis (NC) is an autosomal recessive disorder; the gene coding for the integral membrane protein cystinosin, which is responsible for membrane transport of cystine (CTNS), was cloned. Mutation analysis of the CTNS gene of Caucasian patients revealed a common 57-kb deletion, and several other mutations spread ...

Stem cell microvesicles transfer cystinosin to human cystinotic cells and reduce cystine accumulation in vitro. [PDF]
Cystinosis is a rare disease caused by homozygous mutations of the CTNS gene, encoding a cystine efflux channel in the lysosomal membrane. In Ctns knockout mice, the pathologic intralysosomal accumulation of cystine that drives progressive organ damage ...
