Stem Cells in Niemann‐Pick Disease [PDF]

Disease Markers, 2008
Neural stem cells are multi‐potent and able to self renew to maintain its character throughout the life. Loss of self renewal ability of stem cells prevents recovery or replacement of cells damaged by disease with new cells. The Niemann‐Pick type C1 (NPC1) disease is one of the neurodegenerative diseases, caused by a mutation of NPC1 gene which affects

Case Report: Be Aware of “New” Features of Niemann–Pick Disease: Insights From Two Pediatric Cases

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Niemann–Pick disease is a relatively common lysosomal storage disease. Cholestatic liver disease is a typical clinical phenotype of Niemann–Pick disease in infancy. The diagnosis is traditionally based on Niemann–Pick cells in bone marrow smears or liver

Niemann-Pick disease

Turkish Journal of Hematology, 2011
doi:10.5152/tjh.2011.15 The peripheral blood smear is an easy, inexpensive, and very useful diagnostic method. Although some think that it has lost its importance following the development of new automated complete blood counts, the peripheral blood smear should remain a primary diagnostic tool for clinicians, especially pediatricians. Peripheral blood
