ALDH7A1 rs12514417 polymorphism may increase ischemic stroke risk in alcohol-exposed individuals
Background: Epidemiological studies have identified common risk factors for cerebral stroke worldwide. Some of these factors include hypertension, diabetes, smoking, excessive drinking, and dyslipidemia.

Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE-ALDH7A1) in adulthood: A Dutch pilot study exploring clinical and patient-reported outcomes [PDF]
Background: Little is known about pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy due to α-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency (PDE-ALDH7A1) in adulthood, as the genetic basis of the disorder has only been elucidated 15 years ago.

ALDH7A1 Deficiency and Pyridoxine-Dependent Epilepsy
Researchers at University College and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, London, and other centers in the UK and Europe investigated the genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) by measurement of urinary alpha ...

RASGEF1B suppresses hepatocellular carcinoma through the ALDH7A1/Betaine/SNAI1 metabolic‒epigenetic axis [PDF]
Background Metabolic‒epigenetic crosstalk critically orchestrates hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) pathogenesis. Deciphering the precise mechanism underlying epigenetic remodeling and metabolic reprogramming in HCC may lead to novel treatment paradigms ...

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 7A1 (ALDH7A1) attenuates reactive aldehyde and oxidative stress induced cytotoxicity [PDF]
Mammalian aldehyde dehydrogenase 7A1 (ALDH7A1) is homologous to plant ALDH7B1 which protects against various forms of stress such as increased salinity, dehydration and treatment with oxidants or pesticides. Deleterious mutations in human ALDH7A1 are responsible for pyridoxine-dependent and folinic acid-responsive seizures. In previous studies, we have

Targeting AASS alleviates neurotoxicity and improves mitochondrial function in astrocyte models for pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy [PDF]
Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare neurometabolic disorder of lysine catabolism caused by bi-allelic variants in ALDH7A1. This enzyme deficiency leads to accumulation of neurotoxic metabolites, pyridoxal-phosphate inactivation, and ...

Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 7A1 (ALDH7A1) Is a Novel Enzyme Involved in Cellular Defense against Hyperosmotic Stress [PDF]
Mammalian ALDH7A1 is homologous to plant ALDH7B1, an enzyme that protects against various forms of stress, such as salinity, dehydration, and osmotic stress. It is known that mutations in the human ALDH7A1 gene cause pyridoxine-dependent and folic acid-responsive seizures.

Atypical pyridoxine dependent epilepsy resulting from a new homozygous missense mutation, in ALDH7A1 [PDF]
Pyridoxine dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare autosomal recessive neurometabolic disorder. In the classical form, seizures are observed within the first month of life, while in the atypical form seizures appear later in life, sometimes as late as at the age of 3 years of life.

Case report: Clinical and genetic characterization of a novel ALDH7A1 variant causing pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy, developmental delay, and intellectual disability in two siblings [PDF]
BackgroundPathogenic variants in ALDH7A1 are associated with pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE), a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by epileptic seizures, unresponsiveness to standard antiseizure medications (ASM), and a response only to ...

Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare autosomal recessive developmental and epileptic encephalopathy caused by pathogenic variants in the ALDH7A1 gene (PDE-ALDH7A1), which mainly has its onset in neonates and infants. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent severe neurological sequelae or death.
