Obesity induced Ext1 reduction mediates the occurrence of NAFLD

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2022
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disorder with intricate etiology. It is closely associated with metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Exostosin1 (Ext1) is an ER-resident transmembrane glycosyltransferase, which plays an important role in ER homeostasis.

Clinical and molecular studies of EXT1/EXT2 in Bulgaria

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2011
AbstractEXT1/EXT2‐CDG (Multiple cartilagineous exostoses, hereditary multiple osteochondroma (MO); OMIM 133700/133701) are common defects of O‐xylosylglycan glycosylation. The diagnostic criteria are at least two osteochondromas of the juxta‐epiphyseal region of long bones with in the majority of cases a positive family history and/or mutation in one ...

Identification and functional characterization of the human EXT1 promoter region

Gene, 2012
Mutations in Exostosin-1 (EXT1) or Exostosin-2 (EXT2) cause the autosomal dominant disorder multiple osteochondromas (MO). This disease is mainly characterized by the appearance of multiple cartilage-capped protuberances arising from children's metaphyses and is known to display clinical inter- and intrafamilial variations. EXT1 and EXT2 are both tumor

cDNA cloning and distribution of XEXT1, the Xenopus homologue of EXT1

Development Genes and Evolution, 2002
Hereditary Multiple Exostosis (EXT) is an autosomal dominant disorder. Here, we have isolated XEXT1, a Xenopus homologue of EXT1, as an ovary-enriched cDNA clone. The 2,598-bp XEXT1 cDNA had a single open reading frame encoding 735 amino acids. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that transcripts of XEXT1 were present maternally and consumed prior to ...

Identification of the Xenopus laevis cDNA for EXT1: A Phylogenetic Perspective

DNA Sequence, 2002
The EXT family of genes is involved in the developmentally important biosynthesis of heparan sulfate molecules. Members of the EXT family have a demonstrated role in gastrulation, wing formation in flies, and proper bone development in vertebrates. EXT family members have been isolated from several phylogenetically diverse species.
