From the cytosol to the inner membrane: biogenesis of the mitochondrial carrier family
Abstract Mitochondrial carrier proteins are essential for cellular physiology as they are active in a wide range of metabolic pathways including production of cellular energy, amino acid synthesis, redox balance and ion homeostasis. The double membrane of mitochondria provides a tightly gated environment through which carrier proteins facilitate the ...

Severe transient neonatal hyperinsulinism: First Peruvian case series
Congenital hyperinsulinism is characterized by dysregulated insulin secretion and is the most common and severe cause of persistent hypoglycemia in pediatrics. Brain damage rates can be as high as 50% due to inadequate treatment.

Timeline of events. ABSTRACT Great emphasis is placed upon addressing hyperinsulinism in at‐risk infants with recurrent hypoglycemia. We report two preterm infants with recurrent nonhyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia due to transient impairment of glucose mobilization, warranting diazoxide use.

ABSTRACT O‐GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and its antagonist O‐GlcNAcase (OGA) regulate protein O‐GlcNAcylation, a highly conserved post‐translational modification involved in metabolic sensing. Pathogenic variants in the OGT gene cause an X‐linked congenital disorder of glycosylation (OGT‐CDG) presenting developmental delay, hypotonia, intellectual ...

Molecular mechanisms of congenital hyperinsulinism [PDF]
Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a complex heterogeneous condition in which insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells is unregulated and inappropriate for the level of blood glucose. The inappropriate insulin secretion drives glucose into the insulin-sensitive tissues, such as the muscle, liver and adipose tissue, leading to severe hyperinsulinaemic

ABSTRACT Septo‐optic dysplasia (SOD) is a rare condition with highly heterogenous clinical manifestations and can be a diagnostic challenge. It can present with pituitary hormone deficiencies, growth failure, visual impairment, and neurological symptoms. SOD can be diagnosed at different time points—from the prenatal period to childhood. Our team cared

Monocarboxylate transporters: new players in body weight regulation. [PDF]
Over the last two decades, several genes have been identified that appear to play a role in the regulation of energy homeostasis and body weight. For a small subset of them, a reduction or an absence of expression confers a resistance to the development ...

Congenital hyperinsulinism with hyperammonaemia
Congenital hyperinsulinism is considered to be the most frequent cause of persistent recurrent hypoglycaemia in infants. The clinical presentation and response to pharmacological treatment may vary significantly depending on the underlying pathology. We report a case of a female infant with mild but early onset of recurrent hypoglycaemia.

ABSTRACT Hyperammonemia is a medical emergency, and the cause must be identified quickly in order to treat appropriately. Malnutrition is a known risk factor for hyperammonemia; however, there are limited reliable lab indicators used to identify malnutrition.
