Germline Whole-Exome Sequencing in Non-Smoker Lung Cancer Patients Reveals Pathogenic Variants in Lung Cancer Driver Genes. [PDF]

open access: yesGenes Chromosomes Cancer
ABSTRACT Approximately 10%–15% of all lung cancers arise in non‐smokers. Although there are no established aetiological factors, non‐smokers with a family history of cancer have an increased risk of lung cancer, implying host genetic factors in lung cancer susceptibility. We sought to identify, in a cohort of 75 patients recruited before lung lobectomy,

Cysteine transporter SLC3A1 promotes breast cancer tumorigenesis [PDF]

open access: yesTheranostics, 2017
Cysteine is an essential amino acid for infants, aged people as well as patients with metabolic disorders. Although the thiol group of cysteine side chain is active in oxidative reactions, the role of cysteine in cancer remains largely unknown. Here, we report that the expression level of the solute carrier family 3, member 1 (SLC3A1), the cysteine ...

The zebrafish cationic amino acid transporter/glycoprotein-associated family: sequence and spatiotemporal distribution during development of the transport system b 0,+ (slc3a1/slc7a9) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
System b0,+ absorbs lysine, arginine, ornithine, and cystine, as well as some (large) neutral amino acids in the mammalian kidney and intestine. It is a heteromeric amino acid transporter made of the heavy subunit SLC3A1/rBAT and the light subunit SLC7A9/

Metabolic consequences of cystinuria

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2019
Background Cystinuria is an inherited disorder of renal amino acid transport that causes recurrent nephrolithiasis and significant morbidity in humans. It has an incidence of 1 in 7000 worldwide making it one of the most common genetic disorders in man ...

Feline Cystinuria Caused by a Missense Mutation in the SLC3A1 Gene [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2015
Abstract Background Cystinuria is an inherited metabolic disease that is relatively common in dogs, but rare in cats and is characterized by defective amino acid reabsorption, leading to cystine urolithiasis. Objectives

An animal model of type A cystinuria due to spontaneous mutation in 129S2/SvPasCrl mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Cystinuria is an autosomal recessive disease caused by the mutation of either SLC3A1 gene encoding for rBAT (type A cystinuria) or SLC7A9 gene encoding for b0,+AT (type B cystinuria).

DataSheet_1_Genetic and Clinical Analyses of 13 Chinese Families With Cystine Urolithiasis and Identification of 15 Novel Pathogenic Variants in SLC3A1 and SLC7A9.docx [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BackgroundCystinuria is a rare genetic disorder characterized by defective renal reabsorption of cystine, ornithine, arginine, and lysine. The increased urinary excretion of cystine results in the development of cystine urolithiasis (CU).

Diversity of Phenotype and Genetic Etiology of 23 Cystinuria Saudi Patients: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
Background: Cystinuria is an inborn error of metabolism that manifests with renal stones due to defective renal epithelial cell transport of cystine which resulted from pathogenic variants in the SLC3A1 and/or SLC7A9 genes. Among nephrolithiasis diseases,

Cystinuria Associated with Different SLC7A9 Gene Variants in the Cat. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Cystinuria is a classical inborn error of metabolism characterized by a selective proximal renal tubular defect affecting cystine, ornithine, lysine, and arginine (COLA) reabsorption, which can lead to uroliths and urinary obstruction.
