•• 11-- CystinuriaCystinuria
• Marked increase in urinary cystine,
lysine, arginine and ornithine.
• Defective renal tubular reabsorption of
these amino acids.

•• 22-- CystinosisCystinosis • Cystine accumulates in lysosomes • No transport to cytoplasm • Deposition of cystine crystals in tissues • Impaired renal functions • Generalized amino aciduria • Renal failure
