Rhabdomyolysis: a genetic perspective [PDF]
Rhabdomyolysis (RM) is a clinical emergency characterized by fulminant skeletal muscle damage and release of intracellular muscle components into the blood stream leading to myoglobinuria and, in severe cases, acute renal failure.

Objective: Glutaric aciduria type 1 is a rare disease, with the estimated prevalence about 1 in 100,000 newborns. GCDH gene mutation can lead to glutaric acid and 3- OH glutaric acid accumulation, with clinical manifestation of neuronal damage, brain ...

A cross-sectional controlled developmental study of neuropsychological functions in patients with glutaric aciduria type I [PDF]
Background: Glutaric aciduria type I (GA-I) is an inherited metabolic disease due to deficiency of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase (GCDH). Cognitive functions are generally thought to be spared, but have not yet been studied in detail.

A Treatable Neurometabolic Disorder: Glutaric Aciduria Type 1
Glutaric aciduria type 1 (GA-1) is an autosomal recessive disorder of lysine, hydroxylysine, and tryptophan metabolism caused by deficiency of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase. It results in the accumulation of 3-hydroxyglutaric and glutaric acid.

A rare case of type i glutaric aciduria in an early child
Glutaric aciduria type I (deficiency of glutaryl-COA dehydrogenase, glutaric acidemia type I) is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding the enzyme glutaryl – COA - dehydrogenase (GCDH).

Extrastriatal changes in patients with late-onset glutaric aciduria type I highlight the risk of long-term neurotoxicity [PDF]
Background: Without neonatal initiation of treatment, 80–90% of patients with glutaric aciduria type 1 (GA1) develop striatal injury during the first six years of life resulting in a complex, predominantly dystonic movement disorder.

Inhibition of cytochrome c oxidase activity in rat cerebral cortex and human skeletal muscle by d-2-hydroxyglutaric acid in vitro [PDF]
l-2-Hydroxyglutaric (LGA) and d-2-hydroxyglutaric (DGA) acids are the characteristic metabolites accumulating in the neurometabolic disorders known as l-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria and d-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria, respectively.
