The Effect of Amino Acid, Carbohydrate, and Lipid Metabolism Disorders on Eyes

Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) are a class of genetic disorders. Each metabolic disorder may have different forms with different age of onset, clinical manifestations, severity, and even type of inheritance. Ideally, a group of different specialists, including ophthalmologists, pediatricians, biochemists, and medical geneticists are needed for the final diagnosis and management of IMDs. B...

Studies on the Metabolism of Kynurenic Acid

In preceding reports from this laboratory, kyneurenic acid was shown to be degraded by cell-free extracts of Pseudomonas Jluorescens (ATCC 11299B) with the formation of L-glutamic acid, Dand L-alanine, and acetic acid as the major end products (2, 3). Subsequently, tracer experiments with kynurenic acid labeled with Cl4 at various positions demonstrated that the carbon skeleton of glutamic acid...

Amino Acid Metabolism

AB S T R A C T To evaluate the factors regulating gluconeogenesis in pregnancy, plasma amino acid levels were determined during the course of an 84-90 hr fast in physically healthy women studied during wk 16-22 of gestation (before undergoing therapeutic abortion), and in nonpregnant controls. The effect of pregnancy on the glycemic response to exogenous alanine administration during starvation...
