Metabolic Stroke: Atypical Presentation of Succinic Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase Deficiency

open access: yesJIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive neurometabolic disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in ALDH5A1, encoding the mitochondrial enzyme SSADH. This enzyme catalyses the conversion of succinic semialdehyde to succinic acid in the γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) degradation pathway.

Getting the diagnostic clue, role of MRI in the diagnosis of type 1 Glutaric aciduria in resource-limited settings

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports
Glutaric aciduria type 1 is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase, which is the key mitochondrial enzyme involved in the final degradation of lysine, L-hydroxylysine, and L-tryptophan. It is an inherited

Biochemical Testing Promotes Interpretation of Variants of Uncertain Significance in Prenatal Genetic Disease Testing in Four Organic Acidurias

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 211-217, February 2026.
This review demonstrates how amniotic fluid biochemical testing provides critical phenotypic evidence (ACMG PP4) for reclassifying variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in prenatal organic acidurias. Integrating metabolite analysis with genetic testing enhances diagnostic accuracy and enables informed clinical decisions for affected families ...
