Comparing CRISPR-Cas9 Gene Therapy Delivery Systems: Implications and Optimization for Hyperargininemia

open access: yesPrecision Nanomedicine
Hyperargininemia is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency in the urea cycle enzyme arginase 1, resulting in severe systemic and neurological complications.

AAV-based gene therapy prevents neuropathology and results in normal cognitive development in the hyperargininemic mouse

open access: yes, 2013
: Complete arginase I deficiency is the least severe urea cycle disorder, characterized by hyperargininemia and infrequent episodes of hyperammonemia.

Guanidino compounds inhibit acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase activities: effect neuroprotector of vitamins E plus C

open access: yes, 2010
Hyperargininemia is a metabolic disorder biochemically characterized by tissue accumulating of arginine and other guanidino compounds. Convulsions, lethargy and psychomotor delay or cognitive deterioration are predominant clinical features of this ...

Rescue of the Functional Alterations of Motor Cortical Circuits in Arginase Deficiency by Neonatal Gene Therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
UnlabelledArginase 1 deficiency is a urea cycle disorder associated with hyperargininemia, spastic diplegia, loss of ambulation, intellectual disability, and seizures.

In vitro effects of L-arginine and guanidino compounds on NTPDase1 and 5'-nucleotidase activities from rat brain synaptosomes

open access: yes, 2003
Tissue accumulation of arginine (Arg), N-acetylarginine (NA), argininic acid (AA) and homoarginine (HA) occurs in hyperargininemia, an inborn error of the urea cycle.

Development of a Protein Scaffold for Arginine Sensing Generated through the Dissection of the Arginine-Binding Protein from Thermotoga maritima

open access: yes, 2020
Arginine is one of the most important nutrients of living organisms as it plays a major role in important biological pathways. However, the accumulation of arginine as consequence of metabolic defects causes hyperargininemia, an autosomal recessive ...

Hyperargininemia in an inducible arginase‐1 deficient mouse model

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2013
We generated an inducible arginase‐1 (Arg1) deficient mouse model by crossing “floxed” Arg1 mice with the Cre‐ER‐T2 model (Arg1‐Cre). These Arg1‐Cre mice die about 2 weeks after tamoxifen administration regardless of the starting age of inducing the knockout and show signs of hyperammonemia and significantly elevated arginine levels (n=4–5; four time ...

Arginine exposure alters ectonucleotidase activities and morphology of zebrafish larvae (Danio rerio)

open access: yes, 2013
Hyperargininemia is an inborn error of metabolism (IEM) characterized by tissue accumulation of arginine (Arg). Mental retardation and other neurological features are common symptoms in hyperargininemic patients.

Mutations and common variants in the human arginase 1 (ARG1) gene: Impact on patients, diagnostics, and protein structure considerations

open access: yes, 2018
The urea cycle disorder argininemia is caused by a defective arginase 1 (ARG1) enzyme resulting from mutations in the ARG1 gene. Patients generally develop hyperargininemia, spastic paraparesis, progressive neurological and intellectual impairment, and ...

Hepatic arginase deficiency fosters dysmyelination during postnatal CNS development.

open access: yes, 2019
Deficiency of arginase is associated with hyperargininemia, and prominent features include spastic diplegia/tetraplegia, clonus, and hyperreflexia; loss of ambulation, intellectual disability and progressive neurological decline are other signs.
