Pathophysiology of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal-recessive lipid storage disease caused by mutations in the CYP27A1 gene, which lead to deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme, sterol 27-hydroxylase, resulting in the accumulation of cholestanol in the serum and many affected lesions.

Familial variability of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis lacking typical biochemical findings
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of bile acid synthesis caused by pathogenic variants in the CYP27A1 gene encoding the mitochondrial enzyme sterol 27‐hydroxylase.

Abstract Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a treatable genetic disorder associated with deficiency of the sterol 27‐hydroxylase enzyme (CYP27A1), important in bile acid synthesis. CTX may present in the newborn period as hepatic jaundice/cholestasis, that can resolve or can progress to fatal liver disease.

Nerve Ultrasound Detects Peripheral Nerve Enlargement in Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by variants in the CYP27A1 gene, resulting in cholestanol accumulation in various tissues, including peripheral nerves. Polyneuropathy is common but often under‐recognized in CTX.
