Hyperphenylalaninemias genotyping: Results of over 60 years of history in Lombardy, Italy
Background Hyperphenylalaninemias (HPA) are due to several gene mutations, of which the PAH gene is the most frequently involved. Prevalence and incidence of disease vary between populations, with genotype/phenotype correlations not always capable to ...

Novel MTO1 mutations associated with an intrafamilial phenotypic variability
Background Mitochondrial diseases are a group of rare inborn metabolic disorders with multi-systemic manifestations. MTO1 gene mutations are associated with MTO1 (Mitochondrial tRNA Translation Optimization 1) protein deficiency, a mitochondrial disorder,

Inborn errors of metabolism: a clinical overview [PDF]
CONTEXT: Inborn errors of metabolism cause hereditary metabolic diseases (HMD) and classically they result from the lack of activity of one or more specific enzymes or defects in the transportation of proteins.

Inborn errors in the metabolism of glutathione [PDF]
Glutathione is a tripeptide composed of glutamate, cysteine and glycine. Glutathione is present in millimolar concentrations in most mammalian cells and it is involved in several fundamental biological functions, including free radical scavenging, detoxification of xenobiotics and carcinogens, redox reactions, biosynthesis of DNA, proteins and ...

Compounded drugs as an alternative to the therapeutical gaps of inborn errors of metabolism [PDF]
Inborn errors of metabolism are rare disorders with few therapeutic options for their treatments, which can make patients suffer with complications. Therefore, compounded drugs might be a promising option given that they have the ability of meeting the ...

Gene Therapy for Inborn Errors of Metabolism [PDF]
Inborn errors of liver metabolism are frequent causes of morbidity and mortality especially in children. For several of these diseases, treatment approaches depend on manipulation of the affected metabolic pathway by diet, drugs, vitamin cofactors ...
