Tissue-specific roles of peroxisomes revealed by expression meta-analysis

open access: yesBiology Direct
Peroxisomes are primarily studied in the brain, kidney, and liver due to the conspicuous tissue-specific pathology of peroxisomal biogenesis disorders. In contrast, little is known about the role of peroxisomes in other tissues such as the heart. In this

PIP4K2A regulates intracellular cholesterol transport through modulating PI(4,5)P2 homeostasis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2018
The transport of LDL-derived cholesterol from lysosomes to peroxisomes is facilitated by membrane contacts formed between the lysosomal protein synaptotagmin VII and the peroxisomal lipid phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2].

Peroxisomal dysfunction interferes with odontogenesis and leads to developmentally delayed teeth and defects in distinct dental cells in Pex11b-deficient mice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Human peroxisomal biogenesis disorders of the Zellweger syndrome spectrum affect skeletal development and induce tooth malformations. Whereas several peroxisomal knockout mouse studies elucidated the pathogenesis of skeletal defects, little information ...

Role and Function of Peroxisomes in Neuroinflammation

open access: yesCells
Peroxisomes are organelles involved in many cellular metabolic functions, including the degradation of very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs; C ≥ 22), the initiation of ether-phospholipid synthesis, and the metabolism of reactive oxygen species.

HSD17B4 deficiency causes dysregulation of primary cilia and is alleviated by acetyl-CoA

open access: yesNature Communications
Primary cilia are dynamic sensory organelles orchestrating key signaling pathways, and disruption of primary ciliogenesis is implicated in a spectrum of genetic disorders. The peroxisomal bifunctional enzyme HSD17B4 is pivotal for peroxisomal β-oxidation

A diagnostic and management odyssey of a rare case of rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata

open access: yesJournal of the Pakistan Medical Association
Rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP) is one of the rare inherited peroxisomal disorders that belongs to the heterogeneous group of chondrodysplasias presenting with proximal shortening of the limbs and distinctive punctate calcifications of bones
