Lipids regulate the hydrolysis of membrane bound glucosylceramide by lysosomal β-glucocerebrosidase
Glucosylceramide (GlcCer) is the primary storage lipid in the lysosomes of Gaucher patients and a secondary one in Niemann-Pick disease types A, B, and C.

ABSTRACT The host genetic factors that resulted in the heterogeneous clinical outcomes of COVID‐19 remained poorly understood, especially in admixed populations that are underrepresented in global genomic studies. In this study, we investigated the genetic landscape associated with COVID‐19 severity using whole‐exome sequencing data from 325 Brazilian ...

Genetic disease and Niemann-Pick disorders: novel treatments and drug delivery systems
A large number of diseases result from mutation or alteration in the structure and function of genes. Niemann-Pick disease is a very rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder.

Keys to overcoming the challenge of diagnosing autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia
Introduction: Autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia refers to a large group of diseases affecting the cerebellum and/or its connections, although they may also involve other regions of the nervous system.

Lipidomic and proteomic profiling of fat and skeletal muscle from farmed Atlantic salmon at different production stages revealed a signature resembling mammalian metabolic ageing at the seawater stage. This included lipid remodelling, a reduction in markers of substrate handling for ATP production, decreased abundance of autophagy–lysosomal and ...

This study identifies that the PD‐associated TMEM175‐L156P variant disrupts lysosomal ion channel trafficking by causing aberrant endoplasmic reticulum retention. A “chaperone–agonist” bifunctional small molecule restores TMEM175‐L156P lysosomal localization and channel function, thereby alleviating PD‐relevant cellular phenotypes and highlighting a ...

Analysis of Genetic Variation of rs1542705 Marker in SMPD1 Gene Region as an Informative Marker for Molecular Diagnosis of Niemann-Pick Disease in Isfahan Population [PDF]
Background: Niemann-Pick disease (NPD) refers to a group of lysosomal storage diseases that causes abnormal metabolism of lipids. One of the genes that play a role in the pathogenesis of this disease is SMPD1.

Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are characterized by the accumulation of undegraded substrates within lysosomes, often associated with oxidative stress and impaired lysosomal function. In this study, we investigate the role of the c-Abl/TFEB pathway in

Impaired Autophagy in the Lipid-Storage Disorder Niemann-Pick Type C1 Disease
Autophagy dysfunction has been implicated in misfolded protein accumulation and cellular toxicity in several diseases. Whether alterations in autophagy also contribute to the pathology of lipid-storage disorders is not clear.
