2025-02-18

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Niemann-Pick disease (NPD), also known as acid sphingomyelinase deficiency, represents a group of rare genetic disorders first described in 1914. <italic>SMPD1</italic> is a crucial gene in this disease, which encodes the enzyme sphingomyelinase essential for the breakdown of sphingomyelin, a component of cell membranes. Mutations in the <italic>SMPD1</italic> gene disrupt t...
