Niemann-Pick disease type B: HRCT assessment of pulmonary involvement
Objective: To analyze HRCT findings in patients with Niemann-Pick disease (NPD) type B, in order to determine the frequency of HRCT patterns and their distribution in the lung parenchyma, as well as the most common clinical characteristics.

ABSTRACT Background Epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a cellular process involved in the invasion and metastasis of cancer cells. Deregulated cellular cholesterol is associated with treatment resistance and metastatic potential in cancer cells; however, the link between EMT and cholesterol is unclear.

ABSTRACT Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD), historically known as Niemann‐Pick disease, is a rare and potentially fatal lysosomal storage disease caused by pathogenic variants in the sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1 (SMPD1) gene, which encodes acid sphingomyelinase (ASM).

Unique molecular signature in mucolipidosis type IV microglia
Background Lysosomal storage diseases (LSD) are a large family of inherited disorders characterized by abnormal endolysosomal accumulation of cellular material due to catabolic enzyme and transporter deficiencies.

Delivery Systems for Therapeutic Genome Editing: Challenges, Innovations, and Future Perspectives
Schematic illustration of four emerging CRISPR–Cas delivery platforms defined by distinct design principles and structural features: virus‐mimicking nanosystems (e.g., VLPs), cell‐derived extracellular vesicles, cell‐penetrating peptides, and stimuli‐responsive scaffolds. These platforms enable spatiotemporally controlled delivery of RNPs, mRNA, or DNA

Abstract Background Common and rare genetic variants in leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) have been linked with sporadic and familial Parkinson's disease (PD). Recently, we discovered that common genetic variation near the LRRK2 locus determined survival in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP).

We identified predictors of early onset and poor prognosis in childhood cerebellar atrophy. Our findings advocate for a shift towards early, targeted diagnostic strategies based on genetic and imaging profiles. ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the associations among clinical features, neuroimaging findings, and genetic data in children with hereditary

ABSTRACT Introduction Ataxia‐telangiectasia (AT) is characterized by progressive cerebellar ataxia, oculomotor apraxia, immunodeficiency, and increased cancer susceptibility. No disease‐modifying treatment is available. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pharmacological interventions for ataxia in pediatric AT. Method A

Lipid Antigen Presentation by CD1b and CD1d in Lysosomal Storage Disease Patients
The lysosome has a key role in the presentation of lipid antigens by CD1 molecules. While defects in lipid antigen presentation and in invariant Natural Killer T (iNKT) cell response were detected in several mouse models of lysosomal storage diseases ...
