Primary fibroblasts from CSPα mutation carriers recapitulate hallmarks of the adult onset neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis [PDF]
Mutations in the co- chaperone protein, CSPα, cause an autosomal dominant, adult-neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (AD-ANCL). The current understanding of CSPα function exclusively at the synapse fails to explain the autophagy-lysosome pathway (ALP ...

Genome scan reveals several loci associated with torus palatinus
Abstract Objective Torus Palatinus (TP) is a common trait with an unclear aetiology. Although prior studies suggest a hereditary component, the genetic factors that influence TP risk remain unknown. The purpose of this study is to identify genetic variants associated with TP.

Loss of ceramide synthase 3 causes lethal skin barrier disruption [PDF]
The stratum corneum as the outermost epidermal layer protects against exsiccation and infection. Both the underlying cornified envelope (CE) and the intercellular lipid matrix contribute essentially to these two main protective barriers. Epidermis-unique

Sphingolipidoses is a group of rare inherited lysosomal diseases that require an early and accurate diagnosis for effective treatment and patient management. A high‐resolution mass spectrometry method coupled with liquid chromatography has beendeveloped to analyze lysosphingolipids in plasma and dried blood spots.

Unifying biology of neurodegeneration in lysosomal storage diseases
Abstract There are currently at least 70 characterised lysosomal storage diseases (LSD) resultant from inherited single‐gene defects. Of these, at least 30 present with central nervous system (CNS) neurodegeneration and overlapping aetiology. Substrate accumulation and dysfunctional neuronal lysosomes are common denominator, but how variants in 30 ...

A perspective on research, diagnosis, and management of lysosomal storage disorders in Colombia
Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are a group of about 50 inborn errors of metabolism characterized by the lysosomal accumulation of partially or non-degraded molecules due to mutations in proteins involved in the degradation of macromolecules, transport,
