Zellweger Syndrome

Information about Zellweger Syndrome: characteristics, related genes and pathways, plus antibodies you can use for research. This page is being enriched constantly, if you see some information you would like this page to include please send your suggestions to us.

Overview of Zellweger Syndrome

Most recent studies have shown that Zellweger Syndrome shares some biological mechanisms with acidemia, adrenoleukodystrophy, adrenoleukodystrophy-neonatal, brain-diseases, chondrodysplasia-punctata, chondrodysplasia-punctata-rhizomelic, diffuse-cerebral-sclerosis-of-schilder, disorders-of-peroxisome-biogenesis, hepatomegaly, hereditary-diseases, inborn-errors-of-metabolism, infantile-refsum-disease-(disorder), kidney-diseases, liver-diseases, metabolic-diseases, muscle-hypotonia, nervousness, peroxisomal-disorders, refsum-disease.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Zellweger Syndrome, and have been seen in publications frequently: Brain Development, Cell Death, Cholesterol Homeostasis, Electron Transport, Excretion, Fatty Acid Beta-oxidation, Fatty Acid Oxidation, Gliogenesis, Localization, Membrane Assembly, Membrane Biogenesis, Myelination, Organelle Assembly, Pathogenesis, Protein Import, Protein Targeting, Protein Transport, Proteolysis, Translation, Transport

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Zellweger Syndrome, such as AAAS, ABCD1, ABCD3, ACOX1, APP, CAT, DAO, GNPAT, HSD17B4, PEX1, PEX10, PEX12, PEX13, PEX2, PEX5, PEX6, PEX7, PHEX, ZNF260. See what Boster has to offer for the research of these genes by clicking the gene name links below and view a more detailed info card/product listing for that gene.

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.
