The Pathogenic Sphingolipid Psychosine is Secreted in Extracellular Vesicles in the Brain of a Mouse Model of Krabbe Disease

open access: yesASN Neuro, 2022
Psychosine exerts most of its toxic effects by altering membrane dynamics with increased shedding of extracellular vesicles (EVs). In this study, we discovered that a fraction of psychosine produced in the brain of the Twitcher mouse, a model for Krabbe ...

Lipidomic analysis identifies age-disease-related changes and potential new biomarkers in brain-derived extracellular vesicles from metachromatic leukodystrophy mice

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2022
Background Recent findings show that extracellular vesicle constituents can exert short- and long-range biological effects on neighboring cells in the brain, opening an exciting avenue for investigation in the field of neurodegenerative diseases ...

Deficiency of a Niemann-Pick, type C1-related protein in toxoplasma is associated with multiple lipidoses and increased pathogenicity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2011
Several proteins that play key roles in cholesterol synthesis, regulation, trafficking and signaling are united by sharing the phylogenetically conserved 'sterol-sensing domain' (SSD).

Estudo da doença de Gaucher em Santa Catarina Study of Gaucher disease in Santa Catarina

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2008
A doença de Gaucher (DG) foi a primeira doença de armazenamento lisossomal descrita e a mais encontrada. Caracteriza-se pela deficiência hereditária da atividade da enzima lisossomal glucocerebrosidase, que bloqueia o metabolismo do glicocerebrosídeo.

Clinical and genetic analysis of lipoprotein glomerulopathy patients caused by APOE mutations

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2020., 2020
For the first time APOE‐Osaka/Kurashiki and APOE‐Chicago mutations reported in Chinese; Lipoprotein glomerulopathy (LPG) patients with urine protein remission had slower renal function decrease; LPG was associated with higher blood pressure; Serum apoE levels were higher in patients with low‐density lipoprotein receptor binding region mutations of APOE

Lysosomal size matters

open access: yesTraffic, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 60-75, January 2020., 2020
Over the last decade, we witnessed an unprecedented interest in lysosomes, most prominently as catabolic centers and as intracellular signaling platforms. Interestingly, lysosomal activity is strongly dependent on organelle numbers, size and position. The dynamic nature of lysosomes has been extensively documented but the importance of lysosomal size ...

Corneal dystrophies

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2009
The term corneal dystrophy embraces a heterogenous group of bilateral genetically determined non-inflammatory corneal diseases that are restricted to the cornea. The designation is imprecise but remains in vogue because of its clinical value. Clinically,
