AGAT, GAMT and SLC6A8 distribution in the central nervous system, in relation to creatine deficiency syndromes: A review [PDF]
Summary: Creatine deficiency syndromes, either due to AGAT, GAMT or SLC6A8 deficiencies, lead to a complete absence, or a very strong decrease, of creatine within the brain, as measured by magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Hyperammonemia-induced toxicity for the developing central nervous system [PDF]
In pediatric patients, hyperammonemia can be caused by various acquired or inherited disorders such as urea cycle deficiencies or organic acidemias. The brain is much more susceptible to the deleterious effects of ammonium during development than in ...

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 ...

Creatine deficiency syndromes and the importance of creatine synthesis in the brain [PDF]
Creatine deficiency syndromes, due to deficiencies in AGAT, GAMT (creatine synthesis pathway) or SLC6A8 (creatine transporter), lead to complete absence or very strong decrease of creatine in CNS as measured by magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

X‐linked creatine deficiency syndrome: A novel mutation in creatine transporter gene SLC6A8
AbstractAmong creatine deficiency syndromes, an X‐linked condition related to a defective creatine transport into the central nervous system has been described recently. Hallmarks of the disease are the absence of a creatine signal at brain spectroscopy, increased creatine levels in blood and urine, ineffectiveness of oral supplementation, and a ...

Metabogenic and Nutriceutical Approaches to Address Energy Dysregulation and Skeletal Muscle Wasting in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy [PDF]
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal genetic muscle wasting disease with no current cure. A prominent, yet poorly treated feature of dystrophic muscle is the dysregulation of energy homeostasis which may be associated with intrinsic defects in ...
