A New and Rapid LC-MS/MS Method for the Determination of Cysteamine Plasma Levels in Cystinosis Patients

open access: yesPharmaceuticals
Cystinosis is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the CTNS gene that encodes for the cystine transporter cystinosin, which is expressed on the lysosomal membrane mediating the efflux of cystine.

Unveiling cystinosis in India

open access: yesJournal of Rare Diseases
Background Cystinosis, a rare autosomal recessive disease, stems from genetic alterations in the CTNS gene, leading to a malfunction of lysosomal ‘cystinosin’ protein.

Structural & functional studies on cystinosin, the proton-coupled cystine transporter

open access: yes
The lysosome is a major signalling centre within the cell and an important regulator of metabolism through its regulation of mTORC1 activity. A key function of the lysosome is to degrade proteins to their constituent amino acids and export these to the cytoplasm for metabolic recycling or sensing. In comparison to amino acid transport across the plasma

Nlrp2 deletion ameliorates kidney damage in a mouse model of cystinosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the CTNS gene that encodes cystinosin, a ubiquitous lysosomal cystine/H+ antiporter.

CTNS Mutations Causing Autosomal Recessive Cystinosis in a Subset of Iranian Population: Report of Two New Variants

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research
Background: Nephropathic cystinosis (NC) is an uncommon autosomal recessive disease with abnormality in lysosomal storage that appearances in patients with mutations in the CTNS gene encoding a lysosomal transporter cystinosin. Disrupted function of this

Targeting oxidative stress-induced lipid peroxidation enhances podocyte function in cystinosis

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine
Background Cystinosis is a rare, incurable lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the CTNS gene encoding the cystine transporter cystinosin, which leads to lysosomal cystine accumulation in all cells of the body.

Oh cystinosin: let me count the ways!

open access: yesKidney International, 2019
Nephropathic cystinosis is the most common genetic cause of a renal Fanconi syndrome and results from dysfunction of the lysosomal cystine-transporter protein cystinosin. The multiple organ dysfunctions of affected patients were thought to be related to the defective protein, with cystine crystal formation.

Lysosomal Targeting of Cystinosin Requires AP‐3

Traffic, 2015
Cystinosin is a lysosomal cystine transporter defective in cystinosis, an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder. It is composed of seven transmembrane (TM) domains and contains two lysosomal targeting motifs: a tyrosine‐based signal (GYDQL) in its C‐terminal tail and a non‐classical motif in its fifth inter‐TM loop.
