Hyperammonemia and proteostasis in cirrhosis [PDF]
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition & Metabolic Care, 2018 Skeletal muscle loss or sarcopenia is a frequent complication of cirrhosis that adversely affects clinical outcomes. As skeletal muscle is the largest store of proteins in the body, proteostasis or protein homeostasis is required for maintenance of muscle mass. This review will focus on disordered skeletal muscle proteostasis in liver disease.Increased

Host and fungal factors both contribute to cryptococcosis-associated hyperammonemia (cryptammonia)
Microbiology SpectrumCryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii are both known urease producers and have the potential to cause hyperammonemia. We hypothesized that the risk of hyperammonemia is increased by renal failure, burden of cryptococcal infection, and fungal ...
