Repercussions of Diagnostic Delay in Rare Diseases
ABSTRACT Rare diseases (RDs) are often subject to diagnostic delays due to their low prevalence, clinical variability, and limited professional awareness. This scoping review aimed to map the literature on these delays, examining their clinical, emotional, and socioeconomic consequences.

Current Insight into Human Ornithine Aminotransferase: A Review
ABSTRACT Human ornithine aminotransferase (hOAT) is a mitochondrial matrix pyridoxal‐5′‐phosphate enzyme (PLP) that catalyzes the reversible transfer of the δ‐amino group of L‐ornithine (L‐Orn) to α‐ketoglutarate (α‐KG) yielding glutamate‐5‐semialdehyde (GSA) and glutamate. GSA is prone to cyclize to Δ1‐pyrroline‐5‐carboxylate.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root activity creates unique microbial hotspots in the rhizosphere by influencing the metabolic activities of surrounding soil microorganisms, profoundly regulating the dynamics of soil organic carbon (SOC). However, how root economic strategies affect the formation and

Abstract Catecholamines are classically viewed as neuronal transmitters and adrenal hormones; however, accumulating evidence demonstrates that sources other than nerve fibres and adrenal medulla play a fundamental role in local organ regulation. Physiological paradoxes, such as preserved organ function after denervation or transplantation, challenge a ...
