Metabolic switch from fatty acid oxidation to glycolysis in knock‐in mouse model of Barth syndrome [PDF]

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2023
Mitochondria are central for cellular metabolism and energy supply. Barth syndrome (BTHS) is a severe disorder, due to dysfunction of the mitochondrial cardiolipin acyl transferase tafazzin.

Bezafibrate as treatment in males for Barth syndrome: CARDIOMAN, a double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover RCT

Efficacy and Mechanism Evaluation
Background Barth syndrome is a rare, life-threatening X-linked recessive mitochondrial disorder of lipid metabolism primarily affecting males. Previous research suggests that bezafibrate may ameliorate cellular lipid abnormalities and reduce cardiac ...

Extended recovery of cardiac function after severe infantile cardiomyopathy presentation of Barth syndrome

JIMD Reports, 2022
Cardiomyopathy is the most common presenting feature of Barth syndrome, often presenting in infancy with severe heart failure and cardiac dysfunction. Historically, affected infants commonly died early after presentation, sometimes before a diagnosis of ...

Defining functional classes of Barth syndrome mutation in humans [PDF]

, 2016
The X-linked disease Barth syndrome (BTHS) is caused by mutations in TAZ; TAZ is the main determinant of the final acyl chain composition of the mitochondrial-specific phospholipid, cardiolipin.

Barth syndrome cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Cardiovascular Research, 2017
Barth syndrome (BTHS) is an inherited form of cardiomyopathy, caused by a mutation within the gene encoding the mitochondrial transacylase tafazzin. Tafazzin is involved in the biosynthesis of the unique phospholipid cardiolipin (CL), which is almost exclusively found in mitochondrial membranes.
