RNA‐Based Therapies for Inherited Metabolic Disorders
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) are a diverse and complex group of genetic conditions resulting from deficiencies in enzymes, transporters, or cofactors. These deficiencies lead to metabolic dysfunction and severe clinical consequences. Despite significant progress in understanding their molecular basis, treatment options remain limited ...

Recurrence of primary hyperoxaluria after kidney transplantation
Primary hyperoxaluria is a genetic disorder in glyoxylate metabolism that leads to systemic overproduction of oxalate. Functional deficiency of alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase in this disease leads to recurrent nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis ...

Long Term Survival on Haemodialysis in Primary Hyperoxaluria
Results of treatment of end-stage renal failure (ESRF) in patients with primary hyperoxaluria have been generally poor, largely due to the inability of any treatment regime to match the endogenous overproduction of oxalate.
