Overview of Niemann-pick Disease, Type B

Most recent studies have shown that Niemann-pick Disease, Type B shares some biological mechanisms with aggressive-systemic-mastocytosis, dyspnea, fibrosis, gaucher-disease, hepatomegaly, histiocytosis, liver-cirrhosis, liver-diseases, lung-diseases, lysosomal-storage-diseases, metabolic-diseases, niemann-pick-disease-type-a, niemann-pick-diseases, pick-disease-of-the-brain, pulmonary-fibrosis, retinal-diseases, sea-blue-histiocyte-syndrome, storage-disease.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Niemann-pick Disease, Type B, and have been seen in publications frequently: Autophagy, Cell Death, Cholesterol Efflux, Cholesterol Esterification, Cholesterol Transport, Lipid Storage, Localization, Pathogenesis, Reverse Cholesterol Transport, Secretion, Transport
