Inborn errors of metabolism: a clinical overview [PDF]
CONTEXT: Inborn errors of metabolism cause hereditary metabolic diseases (HMD) and classically they result from the lack of activity of one or more specific enzymes or defects in the transportation of proteins.

Earwax: A potentially useful medium to identify inborn errors of metabolism?
Earwax was investigated as a source to identify patients' different inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs). Acylcarnitines, amino acids, and guanidino metabolites were measured from 28 treated patients with 11 different metabolic disorders including 3 ...

Inborn Errors of Sulfur-Containing Amino Acid Metabolism [PDF]
Two superimposed metabolic sequences, transsulfuration and the methionine/homocysteine cycle, form the pathway for methionine metabolism in mammalian liver. This combined pathway was formulated first to explain observations in subjects with homocystinuria caused by cystathionine synthase deficiency.

Functional Assessment of Lipoyltransferase-1 Deficiency in Cells, Mice, and Humans
Summary: Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) link metabolic defects to human phenotypes. Modern genomics has accelerated IEM discovery, but assessing the impact of genomic variants is still challenging.

Economics of tandem mass spectrometry screening of neonatal inherited disorders [PDF]
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of neonatal screening for phenylketonuria (PKU) and medium-chain acyl-coA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency using tandem mass spectrometry (tandem MS). Methods: A systematic review

In many countries, neonatal screening programs have been unable to expand and have been limited to a few diseases. We highlight herein the opportunity available for the early detection of some inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) in those countries ...
