Pulmonary dysfunction in children with Cystinosis: single center study, original article

open access: yesEgyptian 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.

Fertility in Cystinosis

open access: yesCells, 2021
Cystinosis is a rare inheritable lysosomal storage disorder characterized by cystine accumulation throughout the body, chronic kidney disease necessitating renal replacement therapy mostly during adolescence, and multiple extra-renal complications.

Genetic Landscape of Nephropathic Cystinosis in Russian Children

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Nephropathic cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by amino acid cystine accumulation and caused by biallelic mutations in the CTNS gene.

Low density lipoprotein oxidation by ferritin at lysosomal pH [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) has been proposed to be involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. We have previously shown that LDL can be oxidised by iron in lysosomes.

Programmed Cell Death in Cystinosis

open access: yesCells, 2022
Cystinosis is a lethal autosomal recessive disease that has been known clinically for over 100 years. There are now specific treatments including dialysis, renal transplantation and the orphan drug, cysteamine, which greatly improve the duration and ...

Development of a fibrin-mediated gene delivery system for the treatment of cystinosis via design of experiment

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Cystinosis is a rare disease, caused by a mutation in the gene cystinosin and characterised by the accumulation of cystine crystals. Advantages of biomaterial-mediated gene delivery include reduced safety concerns and the possibility to cure organs that ...

Halitosis in cystinosis patients after administration of immediate-release cysteamine bitartrate compared to delayed-release cysteamine bitartrate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Halitosis due to dimethylsulfide (DMS) generation is a major side effect of cysteamine in the treatment of cystinosis. Recently, an enteric coated formulation of cysteamine bitartrate (RP103) administered twice daily was demonstrated to be non-inferior ...

Multisystem involvement, defective lysosomes and impaired autophagy in a novel rat model of nephropathic cystinosis

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2022
Recessive mutations in the CTNS gene encoding the lysosomal transporter cystinosin cause cystinosis, a lysosomal storage disease leading to kidney failure and multisystem manifestations.

Synthesis of diacylated γ-glutamyl-cysteamine prodrugs, and in vitro evaluation of their cytotoxicity and intracellular delivery of cysteamine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
To overcome the major disadvantages of cysteamine, the only registered treatment for the rare genetic disease cystinosis, nine prodrugs of γ-glutamyl-cysteamine (4) were synthesized for evaluation.

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.
