Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency: MR imaging features.
Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency is a rare autosomal inherited disorder of the normal degradation of sulfur-containing amino acids. Premature death in infancy secondary to severe neurologic deterioration is the usual outcome. This article provides an analysis, in temporal form, of brain imaging findings in this disorder.
متن کاملXanthine oxidase. III. Sulfite oxidation as an ultra sensitive assay.
Previous papers in this series have reported the hypoxanthinedependent oxidation of sulfite by cyanide-inhibited xanthine oxidase (1) and experiments which permitted postulation of the structure of the active site of this enzyme (2). In the present study, xanthine oxidase acting on its substrates has been found to initiate the aerobic oxidation of sulfite by free radical chains of great length ...
متن کاملAssociation between Polymorphisms in Bitter Taste Receptor Genes and Clinical Features in Korean Asthmatics.
BACKGROUND Bitter taste receptors (TAS2R) in human airway smooth muscle have recently been shown to have an important role in bronchodilation, together with β2-adrenergic receptors. OBJECT To evaluate the association between genetic variations in TAS2R and clinical features, including bronchodilator response and asthma control. METHOD We analyzed the association between single nucleotide po...
متن کاملSensitivity and tolerance to tartrazine in aspirin-sensitive asthmatics.
The occurrence of sensitivity to tartrazine was examined in 51 patients with asthma and aspirin sensitivity. All patients underwent oral challenge tests with aspirin and tartrazine. Sensitivity to tartrazine was found in 16 i.e. 31.4% of tested asthmatics. The symptoms of sensitivity to tartrazine were similar to those of aspirin. Tolerance to tartrazine was induced in 5 aspirin and tartrazine ...
متن کاملLocalized periorbital edema as a clinical manifestation of sulfite sensitivity.
Sulfite is commonly used in pharmaceuticals as a preservative. We report a unique clinical presentation of localized periorbital edema on the left eye after administration of sulfite-containing dexamethasone. The patient's sulfite sensitivity was confirmed by sulfite oral provocation test: periorbital edema on the same site developed after ingestion of 200 mg sodium bisulfite. She was non-atopi...
