Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa: COL7A1 Mutation Landscape in a Multi-Ethnic Cohort of 152 Extended Families with High Degree of Customary Consanguineous Marriages [PDF]
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is a heritable skin disease manifesting with sub-lamina densa blistering, erosions, and chronic ulcers. COL7A1, encoding type VII collagen, has been identified as the candidate gene for dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. In

Abstract Objective Understanding the role of plasma proteins in the pathophysiology of epilepsy is crucial for uncovering novel biological mechanisms and therapeutic targets. Mendelian randomization (MR) provides a valuable tool for dissecting potentially causal associations between circulating proteins and disease risk.

Antioxidant status in hyperphenylalaninemia
Abnormal oxidative stress was observed in some inborn errors of metabolism owing to the accumulation of toxic metabolites leading to excessive free radical production and to the influence of restricted diets on the antioxidant status. Erythrocyte antioxidant enzymes activities and tocopherol concentrations were measured in a group of phenylketonuric (n

Metabolic signatures and a diagnostic model for citrin deficiency based on urinary organic acids
Urinary organic acid profiles in NICCD show enrichment in energy and amino acid pathways. The random forest model differentiates NICCD from non‐specific metabolic abnormalities, both with elevated 4‐hydroxyphenyllactic acid and 4‐hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid, which may cause misdiagnosis. Model explanation and web application help physicians make clinical

Psychopathological Risk Assessment in Children with Hyperphenylalaninemia
Background: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a rare congenital disorder caused by decreased metabolism of phenylalanine determining cerebral impairments. If untreated, PKU might lead to intellectual disability, seizures and behavioral disorders.

Comparison of adeno-associated virus pseudotype 1, 2, and 8 vectors administered by intramuscular injection in the treatment of murine phenylketonuria [PDF]
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is caused by hepatic phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) deficiency and is associated with systemic accumulation of phenylalanine (Phe).

Osteopenia is an under‐investigated clinical presentation of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH)‐deficient phenylketonuria (PKU). While osteopenia is not fully penetrant in human PKU, the Pahenu2 mouse is universally osteopenic and ideal to study the ...

ABSTRACT Human milk (HM) is the optimal source of nutrition for infants. Yet the suitability of HM macronutrient composition, paired with the challenge of regulating HM intake, may deserve some consideration for infants with inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) requiring restrictive and controlled dietary management. Except for classic galactosemia, HM

ABSTRACT Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inborn error of metabolism responsible for an accumulation of phenylalanine, which leads to cognitive and developmental disorders if left untreated. Most studies of adult PKU focus on neuropsychiatric complications, but new questions have been raised about systemic manifestations of PKU in adulthood.
