HDAC-6 inhibition ameliorates the early neuropathology in a mouse model of Krabbe disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionIn Krabbe disease (KD), mutations in β-galactosylceramidase (GALC), a lysosomal enzyme responsible for the catabolism of galactolipids, leads to the accumulation of its substrates galactocerebroside and psychosine.

inPHAP: Interactive visualization of genotype and phased haplotype data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: To understand individual genomes it is necessary to look at the variations that lead to changes in phenotype and possibly to disease. However, genotype information alone is often not sufficient and additional knowledge regarding the phase of ...

Endocrine and Growth Abnormalities in 4H Leukodystrophy Caused by Variants in POLR3A, POLR3B, and POLR1C

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020
Context 4H or POLR3-related leukodystrophy is an autosomal recessive disorder typically characterized by hypomyelination, hypodontia, and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in POLR3A, POLR3B, POLR1C, and POLR3K.
