Three Novel and One Potential Hotspot CPT1A Variants in Chinese Patients With Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase 1A Deficiency

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) deficiency is an inherited disorder of mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation that impairs fasting ketogenesis and gluconeogenesis in the liver. Few studies implementing newborn screening (NBS) for CPT1A deficiency

Biochemical and genetic characteristics of patients with primary carnitine deficiency identified through newborn screening

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
Background Primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) is an autosomal recessive disorder of carnitine transportation that leads to impaired fatty acid oxidation. Large-scale studies on newborn screening (NBS) for PCD are limited.

Molecular analysis of PKU-associated PAH mutations: a fast and simple genotyping test [PDF]

, 2018
: Neonatal screening for phenylketonuria (PKU, OMIM: 261600) was introduced at the end of the 1960s. We developed a rapid and simple molecular test for the most frequent phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH, Gene ID: 5053) mutations.

Implementation of SCID Screening in Denmark

International Journal of Neonatal Screening, 2021
Screening for SCID was added to the Danish Neonatal Screening Program in February 2020. The screening uses a RealtimePCR kit and we here present the results and experiences with the validation of the kit and the first 10 months of screening.
