Primary fibroblasts from CSPα mutation carriers recapitulate hallmarks of the adult onset neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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

open access: yesOrthodontics &Craniofacial Research, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 159-165, February 2025.
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]

open access: yes, 2017
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

Lysosphingolipid Quantitation in Plasma and Dried‐Blood Spots Using Targeted High‐Resolution Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 39, Issue 1, January 2025.
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

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2025.
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

open access: yesHeliyon, 2020
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,

A review of sphingolipids from marine sources and their analytical method, metabolic process, and essential roles in human health

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 2015-2042, September 2024.
Sphingolipids from marine sources are abundant, diverse, and have good physiological functions, with great potential for maintaining human health. Dietary supplementation with marine sphingolipids influences the occurrence and progression of a wide range of diseases.

Homozygous variants in the HEXB and MBOAT7 genes underlie neurological diseases in consanguineous families

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2019
Background Neurological disorders are a common cause of morbidity and mortality within Pakistani populations. It is one of the most important challenges in healthcare, with significant life-long socio-economic burden. Methods We investigated the cause of

Impaired neural differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells generated from a mouse model of Sandhoff disease.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Sandhoff disease (SD) is a glycosphingolipid storage disease that arises from mutations in the Hexb gene and the resultant deficiency in β-hexosaminidase activity.
