Oxidative phosphorylation in creatine transporter deficiency [PDF]
X‐linked creatine transporter deficiency (CTD) is one of the three types of cerebral creatine deficiency disorders. CTD arises from pathogenic variants in the X‐linked gene SLC6A8. We report the first phosphorus (31P) MRS study of patients with CTD, where both phosphocreatine and total creatine concentrations were found to be markedly reduced.

Early Indicators of Creatine Transporter Deficiency [PDF]
Early identification is a goal for creatine transporter deficiency and will be critical for future treatment. Before their first birthday, one-half of this sample showed both a significant feeding/weight gain issue and delayed sitting or crawling. Combined, these early indicators could have alerted providers to conduct a urine screen.

Deciphering neuronal deficit and protein profile changes in human brain organoids from patients with creatine transporter deficiency [PDF]
Creatine transporter deficiency (CTD) is an X-linked disease caused by mutations in the SLC6A8 gene. The impaired creatine uptake in the brain results in intellectual disability, behavioral disorders, language delay, and seizures.

Creatine Transporter Deficiency Presenting as Autism Spectrum Disorder [PDF]
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is the most common disability-causing neurodevelopmental disorder in childhood. Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are rare causes of ASD, they are significant for several reasons, including implications in genetic counseling and determination of prognosis.

Elevated amyloid beta peptides and total tau in cerebrospinal fluid in individuals with Creatine transporter deficiency [PDF]
Background: Creatine transporter deficiency (CTD) is a rare X-linked disorder of creatine transport caused by pathogenic variants in SLC6A8 (Xq28). The disorder is marked by developmental delay, especially speech delay.

Screening for creatine transporter deficiency in autism spectrum disorder: a pilot study
Investigation of inherited metabolic disorders in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a matter of debate. X-linked creatine transporter deficiency is among the metabolic disorders which may present predominantly with features of ASD and intellectual ...

Heterozygous females from a rat model for creatine transporter deficiency reveal altered behavioral response to stressors, normal body weight and slight metabolic changes [PDF]
Creatine (Cr) is an organic acid essential for recycling ATP, important in tissues with high energy demand such as muscle or brain. Cr is synthesized in a 2-step pathway by the enzymes AGAT and GAMT, and transported by SLC6A8 (also called CrT).

How a patient-led advocacy organization supports the road to diagnosis and treatment of creatine transporter deficiency [PDF]
The current era of drug development has evolved significantly. Patient advocacy organizations are moving beyond simply supporting community members and are taking the reins to improve the speed of diagnoses, initiate therapeutic discoveries, and lay the ...
