- DLDDにおける神経病の遺伝的および分子的基礎を調査する.
- DLDDに関連する神経疾患に対する標的治療の有効性を評価する.
主な方法:
- 臨床評価 電気生理学 神経生検
- DLD変異の遺伝子解析と DLDタンパク質のウェスタン・ブロッティング
- BCAA のない配方,メチルコバラミン,チアミンで治療する.
主要な成果:
- 20歳の女性が肝臓機能障害と 脂肪の蓄積を伴う重度の感覚軸索神経症を発症しました
- 複合性ヘテロジゴトのDLD変種 (c.745G>T,p.G249C;c.1344_1347del,p.D448Efs*16) が特定され,DLDタンパク質が減少した.
- 治療は嘔吐の完全解消と神経疾患の症状の有意な改善をもたらした.

Pleiotropy
41.1K
Pleiotropy is the phenomenon in which a single gene impacts multiple, seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits. For example, defects in the SOX10 gene cause Waardenburg Syndrome Type 4, or WS4, which can cause defects in pigmentation, hearing impairments, and an absence of intestinal contractions necessary for elimination. This diversity of phenotypes results from the expression pattern of SOX10 in early embryonic and fetal development. SOX10 is found in neural crest cells that form melanocytes,...

Glucose Transporters
24.1K
Glucose transporters facilitate the transport of glucose across the cell membrane. In addition to glucose, some glucose transporters can also aid the movement of other hexoses such as fructose, mannose, and galactose.
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:

Lysosomal Hydrolases
3.9K
Lysosomes are the site for the degradation of macromolecules and biological polymers released during membrane trafficking events such as secretory, endocytic, autophagic, and phagocytic pathways. The membrane-enclosed area of the lysosome, called the lumen, contains hydrolytic enzymes active in an acidic environment. These acid hydrolases are functional at a pH between 4.5 and 5 and are involved in cellular processes such as cell signaling, energy metabolism, restoration of the plasma membrane,...

Peripheral Arterial Disease II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Evaluation
34
Clinical manifestationsPeripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) manifests through a range of symptoms, from the characteristic intermittent claudication to atypical presentations and severe complications in advanced stages. Intermittent claudication, a hallmark symptom of PAD, presents as exercise-induced muscle pain that typically resolves within minutes of rest. This pain is reproducible and stems from inadequate blood flow, leading to the accumulation of lactic acid produced during anaerobic...
