Cysteamine affects skeletal development and impairs motor behavior in zebrafish
Cysteamine is a kind of feed additive commonly used in agricultural production. It is also the only targeted agent for the treatment of cystinosis, and there are some side effects in clinical applications. However, the potential skeletal toxicity remains

Effect of Cystamine on Sperm and Antioxidant Parameters of Ram Semen Stored at 4 °C for 50 Hours [PDF]
Physical and chemical changes caused by oxidative stress in the spermatozoa membrane can reduce spermatozoa function and even lead to death. Cystamine (NH2-CH2-CH2-SH, β-mercaptoethylamine) is a natural substance that modulates the endocrine and ...

Immunomodulatory effects of cysteamine and its potential use as a host-directed therapy for tuberculosis [PDF]
ObjectiveCysteamine, a drug approved to treat cystinosis, has been proposed as a host-directed therapy for M. tuberculosis (Mtb) and SARS-CoV-2. The impact of cysteamine on the immune responses has not been fully investigated.

Thiol-SAM Concentration Effect on the Performance of Interdigitated Electrode-Based Redox-Free Biosensors [PDF]
Despite the direct, redox-free and simple detection non-faradaic impedimetric biosensors offer, considerable optimizations are required to enhance their performance for the detection of various biomarkers. Non-faradaic EIS sensors’ performance depends on

Mitigative role of cysteamine against unilateral renal reperfusion injury in Wistar rats [PDF]
BackgroundIschemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is unavoidable during kidney transplant and it is responsible for delayed or non-function after kidney transplantation. Cysteamine is the standard drug in the management of nephropathic cystinosis and its extra-

Enteric-Coated Cysteamine Bitartrate in Cystinosis Patients
Cystinosis is a severe inherited metabolic storage disease caused by the lysosomal accumulation of cystine. Lifelong therapy with the drug cysteamine bitartrate is necessary. Cysteamine cleaves intralysosomal cystine, and thereafter, it can exit from the

Cysteamine suppresses invasion, metastasis and prolongs survival by inhibiting matrix metalloproteinases in a mouse model of human pancreatic cancer. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cysteamine, an anti-oxidant aminothiol, is the treatment of choice for nephropathic cystinosis, a rare lysosomal storage disease. Cysteamine is a chemo-sensitization and radioprotection agent and its antitumor effects have been investigated ...
