Mutation analysis in glutaric aciduria type I.
Glutaric aciduria type 1 (GA1), resulting from the genetic deficiency of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase (GDH), is a relatively common cause of acute metabolic brain damage in infants. Encephalopathic crises may be prevented by carnitine supplementation and diet, but diagnosis can be difficult as some patients do not show the typical excretion of large amounts of glutaric and 3-hydroxyglutaric acids...
متن کاملGlutaric aciduria type 1--importance of early diagnosis and treatment.
Glutaric aciduria type 1 is a rare inherited organic academia. Untreated patients characteristically develop dystonia secondary to striatal injury during early childhood, which results in high morbidity and mortality. In patients diagnosed during neonatal period, striatal injury can be prevented by metabolic treatment including low lysine diet, carnitine supplementation and aggressive emergency...
متن کاملComplementation studies of isovaleric acidemia and glutaric aciduria type II using cultured skin fibroblasts.
Using cultured skin fibroblasts, we studied the heterogeneity of inborn errors of leucine metabolism such as isovaleric acidemia (IVA), glutaric aciduria type II (GA II), and multiple carboxylase deficiency (MC). We first developed a simple macromolecular-labeling test to measure the ability of cells to oxidize [1-14C]isovaleric acid in situ in culture. Cells from two different lines were fused...
متن کاملGlutaric aciduria type 1: a clinician's view of progress.
Glutaric aciduria type 1 (GA1) arises from an enzymatic block in the common degradation pathway for lysine and tryptophan. It is a cause of crippling striatal necrosis during infancy (Strauss et al., 2003). Clinical experience teaches us two things about GA1. First, predicting precisely when and if basal ganglia injury will occur in an individual is presently difficult, if not impossible. Secon...
