Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2016 Cystinosis is the most common hereditary cause of renal Fanconi syndrome in children. It is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the CTNS gene encoding for the carrier protein cystinosin, transporting cystine out of the lysosomal compartment. Defective cystinosin function leads to intra-lysosomal cystine accumulation

Health‐related quality of life and patient‐reported outcome measurements in patients with cystinosis
JIMD Reports, 2023 Nephropathic cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder. With the availability of treatment and renal replacement therapy, nephropathic cystinosis has evolved from an early fatal disease to a chronic, progressive disorder with ...

Cell therapy for cystinosis [PDF]
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2010 In the September 2009 issue of Blood, Syres et al. [1] report on syngeneic bone marrow cell (BMC) and haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) therapy as a successful treatment in a mouse model of cystinosis, an autosomal recessive metabolic disease caused by a defect in the transport of cystine across the lysosomal membrane. The accumulation of cystine crystals

Iraqi Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021 Background: Cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease with high morbidity and mortality. It is caused by mutations in the CTNS gene that encodes the cystine transporter, cystinosin, which leads to lysosomal cystine accumulation ...

Repression of Virulence in Staphylococcus aureus by 2‐Aminothiol‐Mediated Quorum Quenching
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Simple analogues of cysteine that can eliminate the native autoinducing peptides (AIPs) of staphylococci extracellularly, before they activate their receptor, and turn off quorum sensing in different Staphylococcus aureus. The elimination of AIPs occurs through a mechanism similar to native chemical ligation (NCL). Further, this strategy showed promise

Nephropathic Cystinosis: Symptoms, Treatment, and Perspectives of a Systemic Disease
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2018 Cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the CTNS gene. Main dysfunction is a defective clearance of cystine from lysosomes that leads to accumulation of cystine crystals in every tissue of the body ...

Pulmonary dysfunction in children with Cystinosis: single center study, original article
Egyptian Pediatric Association Gazette, 2022 Background Cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive disorder involving lysosomal storage of the amino acid cystine due to a defect in the membrane transport protein, cystinosin.
