An Australian standard of care for Niemann–Pick disease type C

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Niemann–Pick disease type C (NP‐C) is the fifth most prevalent lysosomal disorder in Australia. Diagnostic delay is common, impacted by disease heterogeneity, limited awareness within clinical gateway services and exclusion from state‐based newborn screening programmes.

Oxidative stress in Niemann–Pick disease, type C [PDF]

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2010
Niemann-Pick disease, type C (NPC) is a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder due to impaired intracellular cholesterol and lipid transport. Increased oxidative stress has been reported in human NPC1 mutant fibroblasts and in tissues from Npc1 mutant mice. However, oxidative stress in NPC patients has not been established.

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 ...

Niemann-Pick Type C Disease Reveals a Link between Lysosomal Cholesterol and PtdIns(4,5)P2 That Regulates Neuronal Excitability. [PDF]

, 2019
There is increasing evidence that the lysosome is involved in the pathogenesis of a variety of neurodegenerative disorders. Thus, mechanisms that link lysosome dysfunction to the disruption of neuronal homeostasis offer opportunities to understand the ...

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
