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 ...

Untargeted Metabolomics for Diagnosis, Monitoring, and Understanding the Pathophysiology of Inherited Metabolic Disorders. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) encompass a diverse and expanding group of rare diseases caused by genetic disruptions mainly in metabolic enzymes and transporters. Clinical diagnosis of IMDs presents significant challenges due to phenotypic heterogeneity, nonspecific symptoms, and the limited scope of current targeted biochemical assays ...

The impact of ALDH7A1 variants in oral cancer development and prognosis [PDF]
The gene encoding aldehyde dehydrogenase 7 family member A1 (ALDH7A1) has been associated with the development and prognosis in multiple cancers; however, the role of ALDH7A1 polymorphisms in oral cancer remains unknown. For this purpose, the influences of ALDH7A1 rs13182402 and rs12659017 on oral cancer development and prognosis were analyzed.

Biochemical, structural, and computational analyses of two new clinically identified missense mutations of ALDH7A1. [PDF]
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 7A1 (ALDH7A1) catalyzes a step of lysine catabolism. Certain missense mutations in the ALDH7A1 gene cause pyridoxine dependent epilepsy (PDE), a rare autosomal neurometabolic disorder with recessive inheritance that affects almost 1:65,000 live births and is classically characterized by recurrent seizures from the neonatal period.
