Urine-Derived Kidney Progenitor Cells in Cystinosis
Nephropathic cystinosis is an inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the cystinosin (CTNS) gene and is characterized by the excessive shedding of proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs) and podocytes into urine ...

Ocular Involvement in Patients with Infantile Nephropathic Cystinosis [PDF]
Cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease associated with high mortality and morbidity rates. The most distinctive ocular manifestations of cystinosis are photophobia, tearing, and blurred vision.

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

ABSTRACT Nutritional therapy is critical in managing inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs), and includes specialized diets and single nutritional therapy products (sNTPs) such as vitamins, cofactors, and amino acids. Many sNTPs function as medicines, but are regulated as food (e.g., food supplements), which can limit access, reimbursement, and consistent

The Pitfall of White Blood Cell Cystine Measurement to Diagnose Juvenile Cystinosis [PDF]
Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease, caused by mutations in the CTNS gene, resulting in multi-organ cystine accumulation. Three forms of cystinosis are distinguished: infantile and juvenile nephropathic cystinosis affecting ...

TTV is a promising marker to assess immune competence in a cohort of pediatric renal transplant recipients. Based on our data, immunosuppressive status and gender‐related factors affect TTV kinetics after transplantation and should be considered when interpreting TTV as a biomarker of immune function. ABSTRACT Background Torque Teno Virus (TTV), family

This study identifies that the PD‐associated TMEM175‐L156P variant disrupts lysosomal ion channel trafficking by causing aberrant endoplasmic reticulum retention. A “chaperone–agonist” bifunctional small molecule restores TMEM175‐L156P lysosomal localization and channel function, thereby alleviating PD‐relevant cellular phenotypes and highlighting a ...

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