Abstract Infantile nephropathic cystinosis (INC) is a rare lysosomal storage disease caused by biallelic mutations in the cystinosin gene, leading to cystine accumulation in various organs. The aim of this cross‐sectional study was to investigate neuromuscular complications in a cohort of 55 patients (aged 2.8‐41.3 years, median 18.5 years) with INC ...

Bioengineered Cystinotic Kidney Tubules Recapitulate a Nephropathic Phenotype
Nephropathic cystinosis is a rare and severe disease caused by disruptions in the CTNS gene. Cystinosis is characterized by lysosomal cystine accumulation, vesicle trafficking impairment, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. Additionally, cystinotic patients
