Hematopoietic Disorders, Renal Impairment and Growth in Mucopolysaccharidosis-Plus Syndrome

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 23(10), P. 5851 - 5851

Published: May 23, 2022

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are rare lysosomal storage disorders (LSD) characterized by the excessive accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG). Conventional MPS, caused inborn deficiencies enzymes involved in GAG degradation, display various multisystemic symptoms-including progressive neurological complications, ophthalmological disorders, hearing loss, gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary issues, cardiorespiratory problems, bone joint abnormalities, dwarfism, coarse facial features. Mucopolysaccharidosis-Plus Syndrome (MPSPS), an autosomal recessive disease a mutation endo-lysosomal tethering protein VPS33A, shows additional renal hematopoietic abnormalities ("Plus symptoms") uncommon conventional MPS. Here, we analyze data from biochemical, histological, physical examinations-particularly blood counts kidney function-to further characterize clinical phenotype MPSPS. A series tests indicate symptoms including anemia thrombocytopenia, which correlate with histological observations hypoplastic marrow. High urinary excretion (caused impairments filtration), hypoalbuminemia, elevated levels creatinine, cholesterol, uric acid dysfunction. Histological analyses MPSPS kidneys similarly suggest extensive destruction glomerular structures foamy podocytes. Height weight did not significantly deviate average, but some cases, growth began to decline at around six months or one year age.

Abstract: Current cancer treatment options have presented numerous challenges in terms of reaching high efficacy. As a result, an immediate step must be taken to create novel therapies that can achieve more than satisfying outcomes the fight against tumors. Ferroptosis, emerging form regulated cell death (RCD) is reliant on iron and reactive oxygen species, has garnered significant attention field therapy. Ferroptosis been reported induced by variety small molecule compounds known as ferroptosis inducers (FINs), well several licensed chemotherapy medicines. These compounds' low solubility, systemic toxicity, limited capacity target tumors are some limitations hindered their clinical effectiveness. A therapy paradigm created hypothesis nanoparticles superior preclinical properties drugs overcome apoptosis resistance. Knowing different ideas behind preparation nanomaterials very helpful generating new ideas. Simultaneously, improvement nanomaterial design needed make them appropriate for therapeutic treatment.

Several years ago, dozens of cases were described in patients with symptoms very similar to mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS). This new disease entity was as mucopolysaccharidosis-plus syndrome (MPSPS). The name the indicates that addition typical conventional MPS, develop other features such congenital heart defects and kidney hematopoietic system disorders. are highly advanced, usually do not survive past second year life. MPSPS is inherited an autosomal recessive manner caused by a homozygous-specific mutation gene encoding VPS33A protein. To date, it has been 41 patients. Patients exhibited excessive excretion glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) urine exceptionally high levels heparan sulfate plasma, but accumulation substrates decrease activity any lysosomal enzymes. Here, we discuss pathomechanisms MPSPS, comparing them those MPS. Moreover, asked question whether should be classified type MPS or separate disease, contrary ‘classical’ types, despite GAG accumulation, no enzymes responsible for degradation these compounds could detected MPSPS. molecular mechanism appearance suggested on basis results available literature.

Published: July 7, 2022

The podocyte is a key cell in maintaining renal filtration barrier integrity. Several recent studies have analyzed the genome and transcriptome at deep resolution. This avenue of "podocyte-ome" research was enabled by variety techniques, including 1) single-cell transcriptomics, 2) FACS with without genetically encoded markers, 3) proteomics. However, data across various omics techniques are currently not well integrated each other. Here, we aimed to establish common, simplified knowledge base for mouse podocyte-ome integrating bulk RNA sequencing, proteomics FACS-sorted podocytes, transcriptomics. Three publicly available datasets technique from different laboratories were bioinformatically visualized. Our approach only revealed conserved processes podocytes but also sheds light on benefits limitations used technologies. We identified that high expression glycan glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor synthesis turnover, as retinol metabolism, relatively understudied features podocytes.

PLoS ONE, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 18(4), P. e0284636 - e0284636

Published: April 18, 2023

Podocytes are key to preventing the filtration of serum proteins into urine. Recent evidence also suggests that in immune mediated kidney diseases, podocytes targets complexes (ICs). The mechanisms whereby handle and respond ICs remain unknown. neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) is involved IgG handling required dendritic cells traffic lysosome for proteolytic degradation antigen presentation on MHC II. Here we examine role FcRn podocytes. We show knockout results decreased trafficking increases IC recycling endosomes. KO alters lysosomal distribution, decreases surface area cathepsin B expression activity. demonstrate signaling pathways cultured differ after treatment with alone versus podocyte proliferation both WT suppressed by treatment. Our findings suggest differentially modifies response ICs. Elucidating underlying may provide novel modulate disease progression.
