Diagnosing Inborn Errors of Lipid Metabolism with Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 2006
AbstractBackground: Many severe diseases are caused by defects in lipid metabolism. As a result, patients often accumulate unusual lipids in their blood and tissues, and proper identification of these lipids is essential for correct diagnosis. In this study, we investigated the potential use of proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectroscopy to

Inborn Errors of Long-Chain Fatty Acid β-Oxidation Link Neural Stem Cell Self-Renewal to Autism

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
Summary: Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) occur with high incidence in human populations. Especially prevalent among these are inborn deficiencies in fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO), which are clinically associated with developmental neuropsychiatric ...

Sphingolipid desaturase DEGS1 is essential for mitochondria-associated membrane integrity

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2023
Sphingolipids function as membrane constituents and signaling molecules, with crucial roles in human diseases, from neurodevelopmental disorders to cancer, best exemplified in the inborn errors of sphingolipid metabolism in lysosomes. The dihydroceramide

A proposed nosology of inborn errors of metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose: We propose a nosology for inborn errors of metabolism that builds on their recent redefinition. Methods: We established a strict definition of criteria to develop a self-consistent schema for inclusion of a disorder into the nosology.

Metabolic encephalopathy and lipid storage myopathy associated with a presumptive mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation defect in a dog

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2015
A 1-year-old spayed female Shih Tzu presented for episodic abnormalities of posture and mentation. Neurologic examination was consistent with a bilaterally symmetric multifocal encephalopathy.

Normal human adipose tissue functions and differentiation in patients with biallelic LPIN1 inactivating mutations

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2017
Lipin-1 is a Mg2+-dependent phosphatidic acid phosphatase (PAP) that in mice is necessary for normal glycerolipid biosynthesis, controlling adipocyte metabolism, and adipogenic differentiation.

Ocular Manifestations of Inborn Errors of Carbohydrate and Lipid Metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Ophthalmology, 1976
Inborn errors of metabolism comprise the mucolipidoses and abnormalities in the metabolism of carbohydrates and of lipids. A large number have ocular manifestations, some of which are essential to the specific diagnoses. The carbohydrate syndromes include galactosemia, with its characteristic cataracts; glycogen storage, with surprisingly few ocular ...

High-risk screening and diagnosis of inborn errors of metabolism : a practical guide for laboratories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a large and heterogeneous group of genetic diseases. In most of these conditions, the presence of variants in specific genes leads to enzyme deficiencies that affect a particular metabolic step.

Sphingolipids: the nexus between Gaucher disease and insulin resistance

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2010
Sphingolipids constitute a diverse array of lipids in which fatty acids are linked through amide bonds to a long-chain base, and, structurally, they form the building blocks of eukaryotic membranes.
