Vesicular and non-vesicular transport feed distinct glycosylation pathways in the Golgi. [PDF]
Newly synthesized proteins and lipids are transported across the Golgi complex via different mechanisms whose respective roles are not completely clear. We previously identified a non-vesicular intra-Golgi transport pathway for glucosylceramide (GlcCer)--

RNA‐Based Therapies for Inherited Metabolic Disorders
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) are a diverse and complex group of genetic conditions resulting from deficiencies in enzymes, transporters, or cofactors. These deficiencies lead to metabolic dysfunction and severe clinical consequences. Despite significant progress in understanding their molecular basis, treatment options remain limited ...

Transcriptional Response to Acute Thermal Exposure in Juvenile Chinook Salmon Determined by RNAseq. [PDF]
Thermal exposure is a serious and growing challenge facing fish species worldwide. Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) living in the southern portion of their native range are particularly likely to encounter warmer water due to a confluence of ...

A Meta‐Analysis to Unveil the Diagnostic Gaps in Anderson–Fabry Disease in Women
ABSTRACT Anderson–Fabry disease (AFD) is an X‐linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the GLA gene, leading to deficient α‐galactosidase A activity. Although historically considered a male disease, it is now recognized that heterozygous women can present with a wide range of symptoms. However, diagnosis in women remains challenging, as

Structure and biological functions of fungal cerebrosides
Ceramide monohexosides (CMHs, cerebrosides) are glycosphingolipids composed of a hydrophobic ceramide linked to one sugar unit. In fungal cells, CMHs are very conserved molecules consisting of a ceramide moiety containing 9-methyl-4,8-sphingadienine in ...

Association of NGF receptors with membrane rafts in PC12 cells : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University [PDF]
Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) signal transduction is involved in the survival, differentiation and maintenance of neurons through the receptors TrkA and p75NTR. These receptors activate downstream protein kinase cascades that regulate cell survival.

Alkaline Phosphatase and Infantile GM1 Gangliosidosis: A Simple Biomarker for a Complex Disease?
ABSTRACT GM1 gangliosidosis is a lysosomal storage disease (LSD) caused by β‐galactosidase deficiency, characterized by the accumulation of gangliosides in various tissues. Among different GM1 forms (infantile form, late‐infantile and juvenile form, and late‐onset form), the infantile form is the most severe: despite an early clinical onset with rapid ...

Abnormalities of glycosphingolipids in mucopolysaccharidosis type III B.
Glycosphingolipids from brain, liver, and spleen of a patient with mucopolysaccharidosis type III B were quantitatively analyzed. Neutral glycosphingolipids containing glucosylceramide, lactosylceramide, globotriaosylceramide, globotetraosylceramide, and

ABSTRACT Anorexia nervosa (AN) leads to severe dietary restriction, low body weight, and in many patients, hepatocellular steatosis. Clinically, hepatic fat in AN is usually macrovesicular, whereas microvesicular steatosis is more often associated with severe starvation and mitochondrial dysfunction.
