A 57 kB Genomic Deletion Causing CTNS Loss of Function Contributes to the CTNS Mutational Spectrum in the Middle East. [PDF]
Background: Nephropathic Cystinosis, the most common cause of renal Fanconi syndrome, is a lysosomal transport disorder with an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. A large number of mutations in CTNS have been identified as causative to date.

Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Nephropathic Cystinosis [PDF]
Nephropathic cystinosis (MIM # 219800) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the lysosomal cystine transporter cystinosin, encoded by the CTNS gene (17p13.2).

Abstract Children with infantile nephropathic cystinosis (INC), an inherited lysosomal storage disease resulting in cystine accumulation in all body cells, are prone to progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD), impaired growth and reduced weight gain; however, systematic anthropometric analyses are lacking.

Expert guidance on the multidisciplinary management of cystinosis in adolescent and adult patients [PDF]
Cystinosis, a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder, results in an abnormal accumulation of the amino acid cystine in multiple organs and tissues of the body.

Infantile cystinosis is a rare disorder which leftuntreated results in end -stage renal disease early in life. Together with dehydration and electrolyte imbalance due to renal tubular Fanconi syndrome, endstage renal disease used to be the leading cause

Abstract ELX‐02 is an investigational compound being developed as a therapy for genetic diseases caused by nonsense mutations such as cystic fibrosis. Structurally, ELX‐02 is an aminoglycoside analogue that induces read‐through of nonsense mutations through interaction with the ribosome, resulting in the production of full‐length functional proteins ...

Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the accumulation of the amino-acid cysteine in various organs and tissues. Infantile nephropathic cystinosis is the most severe form of the disorder.

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

First two unrelated cases of isolated sedoheptulokinase deficiency: A benign disorder? [PDF]
We present the first two reported unrelated patients with an isolated sedoheptulokinase (SHPK) deficiency. The first patient presented with neonatal cholestasis, hypoglycemia, and anemia, while the second patient presented with congenital arthrogryposis ...

Executive Function in Nephropathic Cystinosis [PDF]
We studied executive function (EF) in children and adolescents with cystinosis.Cystinosis is a genetic metabolic disorder in which the amino acid cystine accumulates in all organs of the body, including the brain. Previous research has shown that individuals with cystinosis have visuospatial deficits, but normal intelligence and intact verbal abilities.
