Tricarboxylic acid cycle enzyme activities in a mouse model of methylmalonic aciduria [PDF]
Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is a propionate pathway disorder caused by dysfunction of the mitochondrial enzyme methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MMUT). MMUT catalyzes the conversion of methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA, an anaplerotic reaction which feeds into ...

EPIDEMIOLOGY, PATHOPHYSIOLOGY, AND HINDRANCE OF UREA CYCLE ERROR OF METABOLISM [PDF]
Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) are a class of genetic disorders that are rare individually, but collectively they occur in common terms exhibiting an average prevalence of 1 in 1000 individuals.

Exploring the genetic patterns of complex diseases via the integrative genome-wide approach [PDF]
Motivation: Genome-wide association studies (GWASs), which assay more than a million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in thousands of individuals, have been widely used to identify genetic risk variants for complex diseases. However, most of the variants that have been identified contribute relatively small increments of risk and only explain a ...

Griscelli syndrome type 2: Rare 3 cases from Iraq
Griscelli syndrome (GS) is multisystem disorder of three subtypes, hereditary autosomal recessive diseases characterized by inborn silvery gray hair, partial skin albinism & immune deficiency. It was first reported by Griscelli et al. in 1978.

Inborn errors of metabolism comprise a broad range of genetic diseases of which most are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Although being rare, there is a significant increase in their rate especially in countries where consanguineous marriages

An International Classification of Inherited Metabolic Disorders (ICIMD) [PDF]
Several initiatives at establishing a classification of inherited metabolic disorders have been published previously, some focusing on pathomechanisms, others on clinical manifestations, while yet another attempted a simplified approach of a ...

Genome-wide Causation Studies of Complex Diseases [PDF]
Despite significant progress in dissecting the genetic architecture of complex diseases by genome-wide association studies (GWAS), the signals identified by association analysis may not have specific pathological relevance to diseases so that a large fraction of disease causing genetic variants is still hidden. Association is used to measure dependence

Mapping the Genetic-Imaging-Clinical Pathway with Applications to Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive form of dementia that results in problems with memory, thinking, and behavior. It often starts with abnormal aggregation and deposition of beta amyloid and tau, followed by neuronal damage such as atrophy of the hippocampi, leading to Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
