Defective Cytochrome P450-Catalysed Drug Metabolism in Niemann-Pick Type C Disease. [PDF]
Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease is a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in either the NPC1 or NPC2 gene. NPC is characterised by storage of multiple lipids in the late endosomal/lysosomal compartment, resulting in cellular ...
