Metabolomics and proteomics reveal blocking argininosuccinate synthetase 1 alleviates colitis in mice [PDF]
To date, treating ulcerative colitis (UC) remains a significant challenge due to its complex etiology. In this study, metabolomics and proteomics analysis for multi-center cohorts reveal that both serum arginine levels and the rate-limiting enzyme ...

Synergistic effects of L-arginine and argininosuccinate synthetase 1 in inducing apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]
Backgrounds/Aims Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignant cancer with an increasing incidence worldwide. Although numerous efforts have been made to identify effective therapies for HCC, current strategies have limitations. We present a new approach

Reduced expression of argininosuccinate synthetase 1 has a negative prognostic impact in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. [PDF]
Argininosuccinate synthetase 1 (ASS1), the rate-limiting enzyme for arginine biosynthesis, is expressed in many types of human malignancies. Recent studies showed that ASS1 may have tumor suppressor function and that ASS1 deficiency is associated with ...

Functional profiling of 2,193 ASS1 missense variants: Insights into variant pathogenicity and epistatic interactions in citrullinemia type I. [PDF]
Sequence variants in the urea cycle gene argininosuccinate synthase (ASS1) cause Citrullinemia type 1 (CTLN1), a rare autosomal recessive disease. Mechanistically, reduction in argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS) enzyme activity impairs the urea cycle ...

Physical, cognitive, and social status of patients with urea cycle disorders in Japan
Urea cycle disorders (UCDs) are inherited metabolic diseases that lead to hyperammonemia. Severe hyperammonemia adversely affects the brain. Therefore, we conducted a nationwide study between January 2000 and March 2018 to understand the present status ...
