There is a table of syndromes associated with breakage syndromes. Associations of chromosome anomalies and cancer cell lines have been excluded.

متن کاملUrea cycle disorders.
Most patients with urea cycle disorders who present as neonates, do so with deteriorating feeding, drowsiness and tachypnoea, following a short initial period when they appear well. The plasma ammonia should be measured at the same time as the septic screen in such patients. Ammonia levels above 200 micromol/l are usually caused by inherited metabolic diseases and it is essential to make a diag...
متن کاملUrea Cycle Disorder
RATIONALE. With no effective clearance system for ammonia, levels increase rapidly, resulting in cerebral edema with severe neurologic compromise. Dialysis is the only means of rapid removal of ammonia from blood in acute neonatal hyperammonemia, and hemodialysis is preferred over peritoneal dialysis because it is much more effective. If hemodialysis is not available, hemofiltration can be used...
متن کاملUrea cycle regulation by mitochondrial sirtuin, SIRT5
Mammalian sirtuins have diverse roles in aging, metabolism and disease. Recently we reported a new function for SIRT5 in urea cycle regulation. Our study uncovered that SIRT5 localized to mitochondria matrix and deacetylates carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1), an enzyme which is the first and rate-limiting step of urea cycle. Deacetylation of CPS1 by SIRT5 resulted in activation of CPS1 en...
متن کاملThe nutritional management of urea cycle disorders.
Diet is one of the mainstays of the treatment of patients with urea cycle disorders. The protein intake should be adjusted to take account of the inborn error and its severity and the patient's age, growth rate, and individual preferences. Currently, the widely used standards for protein intake are probably more generous than necessary, particularly for those with the more severe variants. Most...
