Generation and characterization of NGLY1 patient-derived midbrain organoids

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
NGLY1 deficiency is an ultra-rare, autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the NGLY1 gene encoding N-glycanase one that removes N-linked glycan.

Genetic disruption of mammalian endoplasmic reticulum‐associated protein degradation: Human phenotypes and animal and cellular disease models

open access: yesTraffic, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 312-333, August 2023., 2023
Degradation of unassembled, misfolded, and other defective proteins is mediated by a major quality control mechanism, named the endoplasmic reticulum‐associated protein degradation (ERAD). Throughout this manuscript, we present the various genetically manipulated higher cellular and mammalian animal models that were depleted for specific ERAD ...

Analysis of urinary oligosaccharide excretion patterns by UHPLC/HRAM mass spectrometry for screening of lysosomal storage disorders

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 206-219, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Oligosaccharidoses, sphingolipidoses and mucolipidoses are lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) in which defective breakdown of glycan‐side chains of glycosylated proteins and glycolipids leads to the accumulation of incompletely degraded oligosaccharides within lysosomes. In metabolic laboratories, these disorders are commonly diagnosed by thin‐

An Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell‐Derived Neuromuscular Junction Platform for Study of the NGLY1‐Congenital Disorder of Deglycosylation

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, Volume 5, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
NGLY1‐CDDG is a rare and recently identified congenital deglycosylation disorder that impairs motor function. Motoneurons (MNs) derived from NGLY1‐deficient patients are co‐cultured with skeletal muscle in a neuromuscular junction microphysiological system.

Generation of two gene corrected human isogenic iPSC lines (NCATS-CL6104 and NCATS-CL6105) from a patient line (NCATS-CL6103) carrying a homozygous p.R401X mutation in the NGLY1 gene using CRISPR/Cas9

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2021
NGLY1 deficiency is a rare recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the NGLY1 gene which codes for N-glycanase 1 (NGLY1). Here, we report the generation of two gene corrected iPSC lines using a patient-derived iPSC line (NCATS-CL6103) that ...

Knowledge-based approaches to drug discovery for rare diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The conventional drug discovery pipeline has proven to be unsustainable for rare diseases. Herein, we discuss recent advances in biomedical knowledge mining applied to discovering therapeutics for rare diseases. We summarize current chemogenomics data of

Congenital Hypotonia: Cracking a SAGA of consanguineous kindred harboring four genetic variants

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2022., 2022
We report the molecular and biochemical basis of an extended highly consanguineous family with five children presenting severe congenital hypotonia who underwent a ‘diagnostic odyssey.’ We have identified a novel nonsense variant in NGLY1 in two affected siblings, and compound heterozygosity for three novel RYR1 variants in two affected sisters from ...

An induced pluripotent stem cell line (NCATS-CL9075) from a patient carrying compound heterozygote mutations, p.R390P and p.L318P, in the NGLY1 gene

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2021
NGLY1 deficiency is a rare disorder caused by mutations in the NGLY1 gene which codes for the highly conserved N-glycanase1 (NGLY1). This enzyme functions in cytosolic deglycosylation of N- linked glycoproteins.

Spatial Transcriptomic Analysis Using R‐Based Computational Machine Learning Reveals the Genetic Profile of Yang or Yin Deficiency Syndrome in Chinese Medicine Theory

open access: yesEvidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Objectives. Yang and Yin are two main concepts responsible for harmonious balance reflecting health conditions based on Chinese medicine theory. Of note, deficiency of either Yang or Yin is associated with disease susceptibility. In this study, we aim to clarify the molecular feature of Yang and Yin deficiency by reanalyzing a transcriptomic data set ...

Identification of MYH6 as the potential gene for human ischaemic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 25, Issue 22, Page 10736-10746, November 2021., 2021
Abstract The present study aimed to explore the potential hub genes and pathways of ischaemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) and to investigate the possible associated mechanisms. Two microarray data sets (GSE5406 and GSE57338) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.
