Glycohydrolases in the central nervous system: the role of GBA2 in the neuronal differentiation [PDF]
Mammalian neurodevelopment is characterized by qualitative and quantitative changes in plasma membrane glycosphingolipids due to a fine regulation of their metabolic pathways. While the biosynthetic pathway is largely studied scant is the information available on the catabolic one.

Mfsd14a disruption causes globozoospermia [PDF]
The Mfsd14a gene, previously called Hiat1, encodes a transmembrane protein of unknown function with homology to the solute carrier protein family. To study the function of the MFSD14A protein, mutant mice (Mus musculus, strain 129S6Sv/Ev) were generated ...

Diagnosis, investigation and management of hereditary spastic paraplegias in the era of next-generation sequencing. [PDF]
The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a group of genetic conditions in which spastic paralysis of the legs is the principal clinical feature. This is caused by a relatively selective distal axonal degeneration involving the longest axons of the ...

Synthesis and Application of Bioactive N‐Functionalized Aziridines
This review discusses modern synthetic methods for the preparation of aziridine‐containing small molecules, including biocatalytic, electrocatalytic, and photocatalytic strategies. We highlight the compatibility of various synthetic methods with control of the exocyclic N‐substituent.

The membrane lipid glucosylceramide (GlcCer) is continuously formed and degraded. Cells express two GlcCer-degrading β-glucosidases, glucocerebrosidase (GBA) and GBA2, located in and outside the lysosome, respectively.

Iminosugar-based inhibitors of glucosylceramide synthase increase brain glycosphingolipids and survival in a mouse model of Sandhoff disease. [PDF]
The neuropathic glycosphingolipidoses are a subgroup of lysosomal storage disorders for which there are no effective therapies. A potential approach is substrate reduction therapy using inhibitors of glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) to decrease the ...

: Deficiency of glucocerebrosidase (GBA), a lysosomal β-glucosidase, causes Gaucher disease. The enzyme hydrolyzes β-glucosidic substrates and transglucosylates cholesterol to cholesterol-β-glucoside.

Unifying biology of neurodegeneration in lysosomal storage diseases. [PDF]
Abstract There are currently at least 70 characterised lysosomal storage diseases (LSD) resultant from inherited single‐gene defects. Of these, at least 30 present with central nervous system (CNS) neurodegeneration and overlapping aetiology. Substrate accumulation and dysfunctional neuronal lysosomes are common denominator, but how variants in 30 ...

Spectral analysis and slow spreading dynamics on complex networks [PDF]
The susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) model is one of the simplest memoryless systems for describing information or epidemic spreading phenomena with competing creation and spontaneous annihilation reactions.
