Abstract:
In this study, a case of Griscelli Syndrome (GS) in a 7 years old girl was reported. The patient initially presented with fever and pancytopenia in laboratory results; after ruling out the malignancies, she went under treatment with the diagnosis of infectious disease and was discharged after two weeks. Nevertheless, ten days after discharge, she developed new symptoms. Due to patient symptoms and general appearance, microscopic analysis of her hair shaft was done, and the abnormal distribution of pigments in the shaft was observed, indicating GS.

The Retinoblastoma Gene
The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...

Glucose Transporters
Facilitated diffusion-glucose transporters (GLUTs) are encoded by the solute-linked carrier (SLC) family 2, subfamily A gene family, or SLC2A. The 14 GLUT protein members are distributed into three classes:
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
The ER provides optimal conditions for synthesizing steroid hormones and lipids, such as phospholipids and triglycerides. Traditionally, lipid metabolism was considered to be a smooth ER function. However, there is no direct evidence to prove that rough ER is completely excluded from lipid...
