Identification of novel bile acids as biomarkers for the early diagnosis of Niemann-Pick C disease [PDF]
This article describes a rapid UPLC-MS/MS method to quantitate novel bile acids in biological fluids and the evaluation of their diagnostic potential in Niemann-Pick C (NPC). Two new compounds, NPCBA1 (3β-hydroxy,7β-N-acetylglucosaminyl-5-cholenoic acid)

Treatment with miglustat reverses the lipid-trafficking defect in Niemann–Pick disease type C
Niemann–Pick disease type C (NP-C) is a hereditary neurovisceral lipid storage disorder. Although traditionally considered a primary cholesterol storage disorder, a variety of glycolipids accumulate in NP-C cells, which resemble those from ...

Quantitating the epigenetic transformation contributing to cholesterol homeostasis using Gaussian process. [PDF]
To understand the impact of epigenetics on human misfolding disease, we apply Gaussian-process regression (GPR) based machine learning (ML) (GPR-ML) through variation spatial profiling (VSP). VSP generates population-based matrices describing the spatial
