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 ...

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

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 ...
