Intermediate cystinosis: a case report of 10-year treatment with cysteamine

BMC Nephrology
Background Cystinosis is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by an autosomal recessive phenotype. Intermediate cystinosis, which progresses slowly and causes renal failure, accounts for approximately 5% of all cystinosis cases.

Infantile nephropathic cystinosis with incomplete fanconi syndrome, hypothyroidism, hydro-uretero-nephrosis, and megacystis

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2016
Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the accumulation of the amino-acid cysteine in various organs and tissues. Infantile nephropathic cystinosis is the most severe form of the disorder.

Cystinosis and two rare mutations in CTNS gene: two case reports

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2022
Background Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by an accumulation of the amino acid cystine in lysosomes throughout the body. Cystinosis is an inherited disease resulting from the failure of lysosomal cystine transport.

Advancing Therapies for Mycobacterial Diseases: From Small Molecules to Host‐Directed Strategies

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global burden of multidrug‐resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) and the rising incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections highlight the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Current treatments are prolonged, toxic, and increasingly compromised by resistance and limited diagnostic capacity.
