Neonatal-onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathy: High genetic yield and long-term outcomes in a multicenter southern European cohort. [PDF]
Abstract Objective To determine the genetic diagnostic yield, characterize the clinical and genetic landscape, and evaluate long‐term epilepsy, neurodevelopmental, and survival outcomes in a strictly defined cohort of neonatal‐onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE).

Mutations in the aldh7a1 gene cause pyridoxine-dependent seizures [PDF]
in this gene have been shown to be present in the majority of patients with a clinical diagnosis of pyridoxinedependent seizures 3-6 . These mutations cause a deficien cy in α-aminoadipic semialdehyde (α-AASA) dehydrogenase, indirectly leading to a secondary deficiency in pyri doxal-5-phosphate (P5P), which causes seizures. Administration of pyridoxine

Neonatal Refractory Seizures and Hyperammonemia in a Neonate With ALDH7A1 Deficiency. [PDF]
ABSTRACTPyridoxine‐dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare, autosomal recessive neurometabolic disorder characterized by intractable seizures responsive to pyridoxine. We present the case of an 11‐day‐old female neonate with a history of refractory multifocal seizures beginning on day three of life, accompanied by hepatomegaly, metabolic acidosis, elevated ...

A case of pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy with novel ALDH7A1 mutations [PDF]
Abstract Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare autosomal-recessive disorder typically presenting with neonatal seizures and is sometimes difficult to diagnose, because the clinical features mimic those of birth asphyxia. A Japanese newborn boy presented with pulmonary haemorrhage and convulsions on the day of birth.

Biallelic pathogenic variants in ALDH7A1 are associated with pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE). ALDH7A1 encodes for the third enzyme of the lysine catabolism pathway.

BackgroundPyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is due to biallelic variants in ALDH7A1 (PDE-ALDH7A1). ALDH7A1 encodes α-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase in lysine catabolism.

Characterization of the first knock-out aldh7a1 zebrafish model for pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy using CRISPR-Cas9 technology. [PDF]
Pyridoxine dependent epilepsy (PDE) is caused by likely pathogenic variants in ALDH7A1 (PDE-ALDH7A1) and inherited autosomal recessively. Neurotoxic alpha-amino adipic semialdehyde (alpha-AASA), piperideine 6-carboxylate and pipecolic acid accumulate in ...

The impact of ALDH7A1 variants in oral cancer development and prognosis
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.

Pyridoxine‐dependent epilepsy: Current perspectives and questions for future research
Pyridoxine‐dependent epilepsy (PDE) was historically defined by a dramatic clinical response to a trial of pyridoxine and the re‐emergence of seizures after withdrawal of pyridoxine.

Genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (ALDH7A1 deficiency) [PDF]
Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy was recently shown to be due to mutations in the ALDH7A1 gene, which encodes antiquitin, an enzyme that catalyses the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent dehydrogenation of l-alpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde/L-Delta1-piperideine 6-carboxylate.
