Initial Effect of Recombinant Human Growth Hormone Treatment in a Patient with Löwe Syndrome
Objectives: Löwe syndrome (the oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Löwe, OCRL, OMIM #309000, ORPHA: 534) is a very rare multisystem X-linked disorder characterized by ocular, kidney and nervous system anomalies.

Nephrolithiasis, kidney failure and bone disorders in Dent disease patients with and without CLCN5 mutations [PDF]
open9noDent disease (DD) is a rare X-linked recessive renal tubulopathy characterised by low-molecular-weight proteinuria (LMWP), hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis and/or nephrolithiasis. DD is caused by mutations in both the CLCN5 and OCRL genes.

Rab5 is required for macropinosome formation, but its site and mode of action remain unknown. We report that Rab5 acts at the plasma membrane, downstream of ruffling, to promote macropinosome sealing and scission.

Inositol 5-phosphatases: insights from the Lowe syndrome protein OCRL [PDF]
The precise regulation of phosphoinositide lipids in cellular membranes is crucial for cellular survival and function. Inositol 5-phosphatases have been implicated in a variety of disorders, including various cancers, obesity, type 2 diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases and rare genetic conditions. Despite the obvious impact on human health, relatively

Mutations in the inositol 5-phosphatase OCRL cause Lowe syndrome and Dent's disease. Although OCRL, a direct clathrin interactor, is recruited to late-stage clathrin-coated pits, clinical manifestations have been primarily attributed to intracellular ...

X-inactivation analysis of embryonic lethality in Ocrl wt/−;Inpp5b −/− mice [PDF]
Mutations in the human OCRL gene, which encodes a phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate 5-phosphatase, result in the X-linked oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe. Mice with a targeted disruption of Ocrl have no phenotypic abnormalities. Targeted disruption of its closest paralog, Inpp5b, causes male infertility in the 129S6 background.

Living on soup:Macropinocytic feeding in amoebae [PDF]
Macropinocytosis is used by a variety of amoebae for feeding on liquid medium. The amoebae project cups and ruffles from their plasma membrane, driven by actin polymerization, and eventually fuse these back to the membrane, entrapping droplets of medium ...
