Unraveling the Interplay Between Metabolism and Neurodevelopment in Health and Disease
Neurodevelopment is orchestrated by precise metabolic regulation. Key metabolic processes—glucose, lipid, and amino acid metabolism—drive cell proliferation, differentiation, synaptogenesis, and neurotransmitter synthesis. These are tightly integrated with signaling pathways like mTOR, AMPK, and insulin/IGF that regulate neuronal growth and synaptic ...

Catabolism of Branched-Chain Amino Acids in Heart Failure: Insights from Genetic Models [PDF]
Genetic defects in amino acid metabolism are major causes of newborn diseases that often lead to abnormal development and function of the central nervous system.

Metabolic errors are inherited diseases, where genetic defects prevent a metabolic path, ending up in enzyme malfunction. In correspondence to its remaining or plenitude fall of enzymatic potency, there is an amassment of dangerous metabolites near the ...

Mitochondrial short‐chain enoyl‐CoA hydratase 1 deficiency (ECHS1D) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the ECHS1 gene. Two Chinese families with inborn errors of metabolism were diagnosed using whole‐exome sequencing, revealing one novel variant (c.759_762del, p.Gly255Valfs*21) in the ECHS1 gene.

Food for thought : palatable eponyms from Pediatrics [PDF]
Food-related medical terms are frequently used in the field of pediatrics for the definition, recognition and diagnosis of disease. Almost 40 food-related medical eponyms used in Pediatrics have been ‘cherry picked’ and described by the authors.

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

Maple syrup urine disease: Role of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]
Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD)/leucine encephalopathy is an inborn error of amino acid metabolism resulting in neurotransmitter depletion, disrupted brain growth and development.

Emergency Management of Intoxication‐Type Inherited Metabolic Disorders
ABSTRACT In many intoxication‐type inherited metabolic disorders, the accumulation of the toxic chemical can cause acute life‐threatening emergencies. Sometimes this is the inevitable consequence of a severe metabolic defect, but it is often triggered by catabolism.

Acute metabolic decompensation in maple syrup urine disease can occur during intercurrent illness and is a medical emergency. A handful of reports in the medical literature describe the use of peritoneal dialysis and haemodialysis as therapeutic ...
