Neonatal seizures: Advances in diagnosis and management
Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) created the ILAE Neonatal Task Force that classified neonatal seizures, defined neonatal epilepsy syndromes, and specified treatment guidelines. These frameworks, in addition to improved access to genetic testing and other recent advances, have revolutionized the diagnosis and management of ...

Consensus guidelines for the diagnosis and management of pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy due to α-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency [PDF]
Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE-ALDH7A1) is an autosomal recessive condition due to a deficiency of α-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase, which is a key enzyme in lysine oxidation.

Frequently Identified Genetic Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy: A Review Focusing on Precision Medicine [PDF]
In this article, we reviewed current knowledge regarding gene-specific therapies for some developmental and epileptic encephalopathy caused by genes with high diagnostic yields, and which are therefore, also more frequently encountered by physicians ...

Complementary Muscle Metabolomics and Proteomics of Muscle in Cows With Post‐Calving Ketosis
ABSTRACT Background The muscle tissue of dairy cows is a site of β‐hydroxybutyrate (BHBA) metabolism. The mechanisms underlying the changes in proteins and metabolites in the muscle tissue of cows with ketosis remain unclear. Objectives To elucidate the metabolic and physiological molecular adaptation mechanisms in the muscle tissue of cows with ...

Abstract Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a rare cause of epilepsy, seizures are a common presentation in these disorders. Seizures in IEM are frequently refractory to conventional anti‐seizure medication and might warrant initiation of specific treatments based on vitamins or dietary modifications or provision of alternative substrates ...

Novel homozygous missense mutation in ALDH7A1 causes neonatal pyridoxine dependent epilepsy
Pyridoxine dependent epilepsy (PDE) (OMIM#266100) is a neonatal form of epilepsy, caused by dysfunction of the enzyme α-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH7A1 or Antiquitin). This enzyme converts α-aminoadipic semialdehyde (α-AASA) into α-aminoadipate (AAA), a critical step in the lysine metabolism of the brain.

ABSTRACT Background Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle weakness, with inflammation and fibrosis contributing to its pathogenesis. Despite advancements in genetic disease‐modifying treatment, there is currently no effective pharmacological treatment for DMD.

Characterization of Two Distinct Structural Classes of Selective Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1A1 Inhibitors. [PDF]
Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDH) catalyze the irreversible oxidation of aldehydes to their corresponding carboxylic acid. Alterations in ALDH1A1 activity are associated with such diverse diseases as cancer, Parkinson?s disease, obesity, and cataracts ...
