An Inborn Error of Fructose Metabolism
Although essential fructosuria has been known for 70 years and has been recognized as an inborn error of metabolism for more than 20 years (Lasker, 1941), it is only recently that a second metabolic anomaly involving fructose has been described by Froesch, Prader, Labhart, Stuber and Wolf (1957). These authors recorded four affected (two children and two adults) and three probably affected memb...
متن کاملSelective screening of 650 high risk Iranian patients for detection of inborn error of metabolism
Objective: Although metabolic diseases individually are rare ,but overall have an incidence of 1/2000 and can cause devastating and irreversible effect if not diagnosed early and treated promptly. selective screening is an acceptable method for detection of these multi presentation diseases.Method: using panel neonatal screening for detection of metabolic diseases in 650 high risk Iranian patie...
متن کاملArgininosuccinic aciduria, an inborn error of amino acid metabolism.
It is probable that many, if not all, of the inherited ('inborn') metabolic disturbances result from a specific enzyme defect, arising from a single abnormal gene. Examples are now known of a number of such inherited defects, some involving amino acids, which result in a block of a metabolic pathway. For example, the normal pathway for the metabolism of phenylalanine and tyrosine is by a series...
متن کاملAlkaptonuria: An Inborn Error of Amino Acid Metabolism
Background: Alkaptonuria (AKU) is a rare hereditary metabolic disorder that occupies a unique position in the history of medical and biochemical genetics because it was the first human metabolic disorder to be interpreted as genetically determined. This condition is characterized by deficiency of HGAO, an enzyme that is mainly found in hepatocytes. The medical interest in alkaptonuria stems fro...
متن کاملEssential hypertension: inborn error of sodium metabolism?
Salt-induced Hypertension in Rats The history of NaCl-induced hypertension in rats is given iby Meneely and 'Dahl (1961). In our laboratory iwe now have two strains of white Sprague-Dawley rats, both with fairly predictable prognosis relative to the development of hypertension, (Dahl, Heine and Tassinari, 1962). They are called R (for Resistant) and S (for Sensitive), and if chronically fed the...
