ABSTRACT Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is classically caused by biallelic pathogenic variants, yet monoallelic variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in PFIC‐associated genes are increasingly identified in children with cholestasis, creating diagnostic uncertainty.

Peroxisomal defects in microglial cells induce a disease-associated microglial signature
Microglial cells ensure essential roles in brain homeostasis. In pathological condition, microglia adopt a common signature, called disease-associated microglial (DAM) signature, characterized by the loss of homeostatic genes and the induction of disease-

Lipid droplet profiling during neutrophil differentiation by stimulated Raman scattering microscopy
Abstract Lipid droplets (LDs) are dynamic organelles that serve as metabolic hubs and emerging regulators of immune cell fate. Although LDs have been implicated in immune regulation, how LD metabolism is remodeled during neutrophil differentiation and how stage‐specific LD dynamics shape mature neutrophil function remain poorly defined.

Peroxisome biogenesis disorders
Defects in PEX genes impair peroxisome assembly and multiple metabolic pathways confined to this organelle, thus providing the biochemical and molecular bases of the peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBD). PBD are divided into two types--Zellweger syndrome spectrum (ZSS) and rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP).

Identification and characterization of novel peroxisomal disorders [PDF]
Peroxisomes are vital organelles found in virtually every human cell. Defects in peroxisomes may lead to peroxisomal disorders, for example the autosomal recessive Zellweger Spectrum Disorders (ZSDs) which are caused by mutations in different PEX genes ...

Zellweger spectrum disorders (ZSD) are rare, debilitating genetic diseases of peroxisome biogenesis that affect multiple organ systems and present with broad clinical heterogeneity. Although many case studies have characterized the multitude of signs and

The important role of biochemical and functional studies in the diagnostics of peroxisomal disorders
Peroxisomes are dynamic organelles that play an essential role in a variety of metabolic pathways. Peroxisomal dysfunction can lead to various biochemical abnormalities and result in abnormal metabolite levels, such as increased very long-chain fatty ...

Control of mitochondrial dynamics and apoptotic pathways by peroxisomes
Peroxisomes are organelles containing different enzymes that catalyze various metabolic pathways such as β-oxidation of very long-chain fatty acids and synthesis of plasmalogens. Peroxisome biogenesis is controlled by a family of proteins called peroxins,

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.
