Dedifferentiation and aberrations of the endolysosomal compartment characterize the early stage of nephropathic cystinosis [PDF]
Nephropathic cystinosis, a lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the CTNS gene encoding the lysosomal cystine transporter cystinosin, is characterized by generalized proximal tubule (PT) dysfunction that progresses, if untreated, to end-stage ...

Infantile Nephropathic Cystinosis - Homozygous c.516dupC Mutation of the CTNS Gene
Objective: Cystinosis is a rare, autosomal recessive, lysosomal storage disorder characterized by cystine accumulation throughout the body, due to mutations in the gene encoding cystinosin, named CTNS.

Substrate selectivity and inhibition of the human lysyl hydroxylase JMJD7
Abstract Jumonji‐C (JmjC) domain‐containing protein 7 (JMJD7) is a human Fe(II) and 2‐oxoglutarate dependent oxygenase that catalyzes stereospecific C3‐hydroxylation of lysyl‐residues in developmentally regulated GTP binding proteins 1 and 2 (DRG1/2). We report studies exploring a diverse set of lysine derivatives incorporated into the DRG1 peptides as

Population pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cysteamine in nephropathic cystinosis patients
Background Nephropathic cystinosis is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting in an impaired transport of cystine trough the lysosomal membrane causing an accumulation of free cystine in lysosomes.
