Nephropathic Cystinosis: Symptoms, Treatment, and Perspectives of a Systemic Disease

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

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

open access: yesSaudi 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.
