Autism and Metabolic Cytopathy
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Autism is a wide spectrum disorder and a lot of factors play role in the etiology. Autism may accompany some genetic disorders such as fragile X, tuberosclerosis, neurofibromatosis and phenylketonuria [1]. However, the absence of sufficient evidence on the etiological roles of environmental, neuroanatomical and biochemical factors has shifted the direction of research to g...
متن کاملHistopathology of mitochondrial cytopathy and the Laurence-Moon-Biedl syndrome.
Clinical and histopathological studies of two patients with distinctly different inherited juvenile retinal dystrophies indicate that the ocular defect in mitochondrial cytopathy involves the underlying pigment epithelium, whereas in the Laurence-Moon-Biedl syndrome the photoreceptor cells are primarily affected.
متن کاملMetabolic Dysfunction Underlying Autism Spectrum Disorder and Potential Treatment Approaches
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by deficits in sociability and communication, and increased repetitive and/or restrictive behaviors. While the etio-pathogenesis of ASD is unknown, clinical manifestations are diverse and many possible genetic and environmental factors have been implicated. As such, it has been a great challenge to identify key neurobiological mechanisms and to de...
متن کاملRenal function and mitochondrial cytopathy (MC): more questions than answers?
Our knowledge of mitochondrial biology has advanced significantly in the last 10 years. The effects of mitochondrial dysfunction or cytopathy (MC) on the heart and neuromuscular system are well known, and its involvement in the pathophysiology of several common clinical disorders such as diabetes, hyperlipidaemia and hypertension, is just beginning to emerge; however, its contribution to renal ...
متن کاملMitochondrial cytopathy in adults: what we know so far.
Mitochondrial cytopathies are a diverse group of inherited and acquired disorders that result in inadequate energy production. They can be caused by inheritable genetic mutations, acquired somatic mutations, exposure to toxins (including some prescription medications), and the aging process itself. In addition, a number of well-described diseases can decrease mitochondrial energy production; th...
