Rapid healing of a patient with dramatic subacute combined degeneration of spinal cord: a case report [PDF]
Background: Prevalence of cobalamin deficiency is high especially in older patients and an immediate therapy start is necessary to prevent irreversible neurological damages. Unfortunately, the diagnosis of cobalamin deficiency is difficult and at present,

Cystathionine β‐synthase (CBS) is an essential enzyme involved in cysteine metabolism, where it combines homocysteine and serine to form cystathionine, the immediate precursor of cysteine. The R336C mutation, which has a high prevalence in Qatar and is associated with a severe form of the amino acid metabolism disorder homocystinuria, reduces CBS ...

Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase-1: Is It the Link between Sulfur Amino Acids and Lipid Metabolism?
An association between sulfur amino acids (methionine, cysteine, homocysteine and taurine) and lipid metabolism has been described in several experimental and population-based studies.

ABSTRACT Spontaneous abdominal aortic thrombosis in neonates due to various causes is a known entity. Hypernatremic dehydration with acute kidney injury/failure can also be one of the aetiologies. A 14‐ and 11‐day‐old term neonate born to primigravida mothers presented to two different facilities with a similar presentation of hypernatremic dehydration

The figure illustrates how high plasma glutathione levels can promote the dethiolation of homocysteinylated proteins, leading to the release of homocysteine. The freed homocysteine is then either excreted through the kidneys or further processed via cellular metabolism, supporting homocysteine clearance and metabolic balance.

On the Origin of Western Diet Pathologies [PDF]
The ratio of the two sulfur-containing amino acids, methionine (Met) and cysteine (Cys), may be a determining factor for which foods contribute to longevity and health. It is shown here that substantially more Met than Cys is consistently found in foods,

Defects in Human Methionine Synthase in cblG Patients [PDF]
Inborn errors resulting in isolated functional methionine synthase deficiency fall into two complementation groups, cblG and cblE. Using biochemical approaches we demonstrate that one cblG patient has greatly reduced levels of methionine synthase while ...
