Human Fibroblast Cell Lines with PMM2 Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation for Therapeutic Development

Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDGs) are inherited disorders of abnormal protein glycosylation that affect multiple organ systems. More than 100 different CDGs have been described, affecting protein and lipid glycosylation. NHGRI investigators have been able to isolate fibroblasts from patients with PMM2 (phosphomannomutase)-CDG, also known...

Development of a Therapy for the Treatment of Zellweger Spectrum Disorder

This technology includes a method for selecting a therapeutic effective amount of one of two compounds (including naltriben and naltrin) for the treatment of Zellweger Spectrum Disorder (ZSD), or any disease associated with peroxisome dysfunction. The compounds were identified using a cell-image based high-content screening (HCS) assay to identify small...
