Narcolepsy and rapid eye movement sleep

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Since the first description of narcolepsy at the end of the 19th Century, great progress has been made. The disease is nowadays distinguished as narcolepsy type 1 and type 2. In the 1960s, the discovery of rapid eye movement sleep at sleep onset led to improved understanding of core sleep‐related disease symptoms of the disease (excessive ...

Clinical and genetic analysis of Niemann-Pick disease type C with a novel NPC1 variant

Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Niemann-Pick disease type C poses a significant challenge within the landscape of rare genetic disorders, marked by its connection to variants in the NPC1 or NPC2 genes. This autosomal recessive lipid storage disorder unfolds with a relentless

Cyclodextrin triggers MCOLN1-dependent endo-lysosome secretion in Niemann-Pick type C cells[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2019
In specialized cell types, lysosome-related organelles support regulated secretory pathways, whereas in nonspecialized cells, lysosomes can undergo fusion with the plasma membrane in response to a transient rise in cytosolic calcium. Recent evidence also

Unveiling a New Link: Cholesterol Deficiency in Smith–Lemli–Opitz and Niemann–Pick C as a Driver of Ciliopathies

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 6, Page 1179-1191, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

Lysosomal and Mitochondrial Liaisons in Niemann-Pick Disease

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSD) are characterized by the accumulation of diverse lipid species in lysosomes. Niemann-Pick type A/B (NPA/B) and type C diseases Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) are progressive LSD caused by loss of function of distinct ...
