Overview of Niemann-pick Diseases

Most recent studies have shown that Niemann-pick Diseases shares some biological mechanisms with aggressive-systemic-mastocytosis, fabry-disease, gangliosidoses, gaucher-disease, inborn-errors-of-metabolism, leukodystrophy-metachromatic, lipoidosis, lysosomal-storage-diseases, metabolic-diseases, mucopolysaccharidoses, nerve-degeneration, nervous-system-disorder, nervousness, neurodegenerative-disorders, niemann-pick-disease-type-a, niemann-pick-disease-type-b, niemann-pick-disease-type-c, sphingolipidoses, storage-disease.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Niemann-pick Diseases, and have been seen in publications frequently: Autophagy, Cell Death, Cholesterol Efflux, Cholesterol Esterification, Cholesterol Homeostasis, Cholesterol Storage, Cholesterol Transport, Endocytosis, Hyperphosphorylation, Intestinal Cholesterol Absorption, Intracellular Cholesterol Transport, Intracellular Transport, Lipid Storage, Lipid Transport, Localization, Myelination, Pathogenesis, Secretion, Sterol Transport, Transport

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Niemann-pick Diseases, such as ABCA1, APOA1, APP, ARHGAP4, CTLA4, GBA, GFAP, GLB1, HLA-DQA1, HNRNPC, LDLR, MAPT, NOD2, NPC1, NPC1L1, NPC2, PFDN4, SMPD1, TNF.

In a later update, we will include information such as current drugs and therapy solutions as well as on-going and past clinical trials for this disease. Plesae stay updated.
