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 ...

Amino acid metabolism and disease
4 p.The origin of life is still a matter of debate, and several hypotheses have been proposed to explain how the building blocks leading to the minimal cell were formed [1], with the amino acids among them. However, when considering their role, the first

Dual Urea Cycle Dysfunction Caused by Coexisting Argininosuccinic Aciduria and Citrin Deficiency: Clinical, Biochemical, and Molecular Insights From an Exceptional Case. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Dual inherited defects affecting urea cycle function are exceptionally rare. We report the first case, to our knowledge, of the coexistence of argininosuccinic aciduria (ASA) and citrin deficiency (CD). A girl born to consanguineous Tunisian parents presented at 6 months of age with recurrent seizures, vomiting, developmental delay, and severe

Metabolic Evaluation of Epilepsy: A Diagnostic Algorithm With Focus on Treatable Conditions: A Diagnostic Algorithm With Focus on Treatable Conditions [PDF]
Although inborn errors of metabolism do not represent the most common cause of seizures, their early identification is of utmost importance, since many will require therapeutic measures beyond that of common anti-epileptic drugs, either in order to ...
