Neurotoxicity of Hcy. (A figure that best represents the scope of the paper.) Homocysteine can reduce the tightness of endothelial cell connections, increase vascular permeability, and damage the blood–brain barrier. Homocysteine activates various glutamate receptors on the surfaces of neurons and glial cells, triggering excitotoxicity, promoting the ...

Inborn errors of metabolism: a clinical overview [PDF]
CONTEXT: Inborn errors of metabolism cause hereditary metabolic diseases (HMD) and classically they result from the lack of activity of one or more specific enzymes or defects in the transportation of proteins.

Pathogenic variants prevalence patients with diabetic kidney disease in Japan: A descriptive study
Previous studies have identified pathogenic variants in 22% of Caucasian patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD); however, this proportion may vary depending on ethnicity and updates to the database. Whole‐genome sequencing of 79 patients with DKD in Japan revealed that 34.1% had kidney‐related heterozygous pathogenic variants, and 12.7% had ...

ABSTRACT In this report, we present the case of a 16‐month‐old patient who was diagnosed with cobalamin G deficiency at 4 months of age via whole exome sequencing by detecting compound heterozygous variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in the MTR gene: (1) c.1283T>A, p.Met428Lys; (2) c.2411T>C, p.Ile804Thr. Before the diagnosis, the initial clinical

Influence of hyperhomocysteinemia on the cellular redox state - Impact on homocysteine-induced endothelial dysfunction [PDF]
Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. An increasing body of evidence has implicated oxidative stress as being contributory to homocysteines deleterious effects on the vasculature.

A case series of Pyridoxine Resistant Classical Homocystinuria
Homocystinuria is an autosomal recessive disorder with the prevalence of 1;200000. It is due to the defect in the Methionine metabolism which results in accumulation of Homocysteine in the body. We report a series of patients with Homocystinuria followed

Causes of and diagnostic approach to methylmalonic acidurias [PDF]
Summary: Several mutant genetic classes that cause isolated methylmalonic acidurias (MMAuria) are known based on biochemical, enzymatic and genetic complementation analysis. The mut0 and mut− defects result from deficiency of MMCoA mutase apoenzyme which
