Retinal disease in ciliopathies: Recent advances with a focus on stem cell-based therapies.

Translational science of rare diseases

Chen HY, Welby E, Li T, Swaroop A.
PMID: 31763178
Transl Sci Rare Dis. 2019 Jul 04;4(1):97-115. doi: 10.3233/TRD-190038.

Ciliopathies display extensive genetic and clinical heterogeneity, varying in severity, age of onset, disease progression and organ systems affected. Retinal involvement, as demonstrated by photoreceptor dysfunction or death, is a highly penetrant phenotype among a vast majority of ciliopathies....

Regenerative Medicine Therapies for Rare Diseases.

The field of regenerative medicine is growing rapidly with the introduction of new therapies that have the potential to treat and cure serious medical conditions, including rare diseases, for which there are no available treatments. In the United States,...

Lysinuric protein intolerance: Pearls to detect this otherwise easily missed diagnosis.

Translational science of rare diseases

Alqarajeh F, Omorodion J, Bosfield K, Shur N, Ferreira CR.
PMID: 33134088
Transl Sci Rare Dis. 2020 Aug 03;5(1):81-86. doi: 10.3233/TRD-190035.

BACKGROUND: Lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by deficient membrane transport of cationic amino acids. It is caused by pathogenic variants in SLC7A7, resulting in impairment of intestinal import and renal proximal tubule loss...

Conducting an investigator-initiated randomized double-blinded intervention trial in acute decompensation of inborn errors of metabolism: Lessons from the N-Carbamylglutamate Consortium.

Translational science of rare diseases

Ah Mew N, Cnaan A, McCarter R, Choi H, Glass P, Rice K, Scavo L, Gillespie CW, Diaz GA, Berry GT, Wong D, Konczal L, McCandless SE, Coughlin Ii CR, Weisfeld-Adams JD, Ficicioglu C, Yudkoff M, Enns GM, Lichter-Konecki U, Gallagher R, Tuchman M.

Transl Sci Rare Dis. 2018 Dec 20;3(3):157-170. doi: 10.3233/TRD-180031.

Organic acidemias and urea cycle disorders are ultra-rare inborn errors of metabolism characterized by episodic acute decompensation, often associated with hyperammonemia, resulting in brain edema and encephalopathy. Retrospective reports and translational studies suggest that N-carbamylglutamate (NCG) may be effective...

Lysosomal storage diseases.

Translational science of rare diseases

Ferreira CR, Gahl WA.
PMID: 29152458
Transl Sci Rare Dis. 2017 May 25;2(1):1-71. doi: 10.3233/TRD-160005.

Lysosomes are cytoplasmic organelles that contain a variety of different hydrolases. A genetic deficiency in the enzymatic activity of one of these hydrolases will lead to the accumulation of the material meant for lysosomal degradation. Examples include glycogen in...

Cerebro-facio-thoracic dysplasia (Pascual-Castroviejo syndrome): Identification of a novel mutation, use of facial recognition analysis, and review of the literature.

Translational science of rare diseases

Tender JAF, Ferreira CR.
PMID: 29682451
