Barry Richards is running a charity fishing competition on 12th May at Greenacres Fishery in Biddenden, Kent in aid of Cystinosis Foundation http://www.cystinosis.org.uk. This competition will be held on the 12th May 2012.
What Causes Cystinosis?
The cystine content of cystinotic cells averages 50-100 times the normal value. The cause is a defect in the transport of cystine out of a cell compartment called the lysososme, in which cystine accumulates. Because of cystine's low solubility, this amino acid forms crystals within the lysosomes of cells, and this is probably what destroys the cells. Only approx 2000 people in the WORLD! have this so we need to do all we can.
A old school friend of my missis ..her son has this condition so we need to make the effort here guys.
