mTOR signaling in renal ion transport
Abstract The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway is crucial in maintaining cell growth and metabolism. The mTOR protein kinase constitutes the catalytic subunit of two multimeric protein complexes called mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2).

Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Nephropathic Cystinosis [PDF]
Nephropathic cystinosis (MIM # 219800) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the lysosomal cystine transporter cystinosin, encoded by the CTNS gene (17p13.2).

Atypical manifestations of infantile-onset nephropathic cystinosis: a diagnostic challenge
A 7-month-old male infant was referred to us for evaluation of hypercalcemia and failure to thrive. He was the second-born child to third-degree consanguineous parents with a birth weight of 3.5 kg. The index child was severely underweight. Initial laboratory investigations showed hypercalcemia (13.6 mg/dL), hypophosphatemia, hyponatremia, hypokalemia ...

Liver Transplant From a Deceased Donor With Cystinosis: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Many inherited metabolic disorders (IMD) are associated with end‐organ damage necessitating organ transplantation. Although utilization of deceased donors with history of IMD warrants caution, there may be circumstances under which such donors could be considered as suitable organ donor candidates.
