Recent Technological Advances in Hepatogenic Differentiation of Stem Cells Relevant to Treatment of Liver Diseases
Liver failure, in an acute or chronic form, is a growing health problem ranking as one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Inborn errors of metabolism characterized by defects in hepatic enzymes or other proteins with metabolic functions, such as receptors or transporters accompanied with environmental factors involve etiology and presentation of liver failure. Currently, the only establi...
متن کاملA Stepwise Clinical Approach to Inherited Metabolic Diseases
Inherited metabolic diseases, as a group, present a particular challenge for the general paediatrician. The diseases are individually rare, and most generalists have little experience with their diagnosis and management. In addition, the clinical presentation of the diseases often mimics common acquired conditions, especially infections, intoxications, and some nutritional deficiency disorders....
متن کاملLong-term correction of ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency by WPRE-mediated overexpression using a helper-dependent adenovirus.
The urea cycle disorders (UCDs) are important models for developing gene replacement therapy for liver diseases. Long-term correction of the most common UCD, ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency, has yet to be achieved in clinical or preclinical settings. The single human clinical trial using early-generation adenovirus (Ad) failed to show any biochemical correction. In adult OTC-deficie...
متن کاملThe Kidney Involvement In Inborn Errors Of Metabolism
Inborn errors of metabolism are characterized by a significant heterogeneity in pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical manifestations. A variety of kidney disorders, inherited or acquired, can consist clinical signs of metabolic disorders. The most frequent of them include Fanconi syndrome, renal tubular acidosis, nephrolithiasis, renal cysts and acute kidney injury. On the other hand, many...
متن کاملInborn errors of metabolism at the turn of the millennium.
Great progress has been made in the field of hereditary metabolic diseases since the beginning of the past century, when metabolic disorders were not really understood and could only be clinically described. Due to the development of basic sciences and advances in technology, we gained insight in the biochemical and molecular basis of hereditary metabolic diseases. It opened possibilities for t...
