Assay of tissue free cystine: application to the diagnosis of cystinosis. 1978

D Allard, and P Parvy, and J C Castets, and Y Huang, and P Kamoun

A fast method for the determination of tissue free cystine is shown. Its usefulness for free cystine assays in leucocytes and muscle biopsies is discussed. The use of muscle biopsy as a means of diagnosis is proposed.

D003553 Cystine A covalently linked dimeric nonessential amino acid formed by the oxidation of CYSTEINE. Two molecules of cysteine are joined together by a disulfide bridge to form cystine. Copper Cystinate,L-Cystine,L Cystine
D003554 Cystinosis A metabolic disease characterized by the defective transport of CYSTINE across the lysosomal membrane due to mutation of a membrane protein cystinosin. This results in cystine accumulation and crystallization in the cells causing widespread tissue damage. In the KIDNEY, nephropathic cystinosis is a common cause of RENAL FANCONI SYNDROME.
