An Isogenic Human Myoblast Cell Model for Cystinosis Myopathy Reveals Alteration of Key Myogenic Regulatory Proteins. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Cystinosis is a rare multisystem, autosomal recessive disease caused by dysfunction or loss of cystinosin (CTNS), which results in lysosomal cystine accumulation, primarily affecting the kidneys. Advances in renal transplantation, cysteamine treatment and improved medical care have increased life expectancy, revealing additional ...
