Neonatal Acute Liver Failure due to Citrin Deficiency (NALFCD). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Both citrin deficiency (CD) and citrullinemia type I (CTLN1) may be detected by elevated citrulline through newborn screening (NBS) or present as acute liver failure in later infancy, but they differ significantly in management. This may pose therapeutic challenges in the early period after presentation while awaiting diagnostic confirmation ...

From the cytosol to the inner membrane: biogenesis of the mitochondrial carrier family. [PDF]
Abstract Mitochondrial carrier proteins are essential for cellular physiology as they are active in a wide range of metabolic pathways including production of cellular energy, amino acid synthesis, redox balance and ion homeostasis. The double membrane of mitochondria provides a tightly gated environment through which carrier proteins facilitate the ...

The therapeutic landscape of citrin deficiency. [PDF]
Abstract Citrin deficiency (CD) is a recessive, liver disease caused by sequence variants in the SLC25A13 gene encoding a mitochondrial aspartate–glutamate transporter. CD manifests as different age‐dependent phenotypes and affects crucial hepatic metabolic pathways including malate–aspartate‐shuttle, glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, de novo lipogenesis ...

Background Neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) is a common form of neonatal jaundice. Histopathological examination of the liver in patients with NICCD typically shows fatty liver, steatohepatitis, and liver fibrosis ...

We study on IEM by newborn screening (NBS) program in eastern coastal areas of China to estimate the prevalence and genetic variants of newborns with IEM and to understand the spectrum of disease and variation of IEM. A total of 245,194 newborns were screened by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), 95 newborns were diagnosed with one of IEM, and 85 cases ...

Abstract A broad spectrum of signs and symptoms has been attributed to primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) since its first description in 1973. Advances in diagnostic procedures have improved diagnostic accuracy and the introduction of PCD in newborn screening (NBS) programs has led to the identification of an increasing number of PCD patients ...

Real‐life Progression of the Use of a Genetic Panel in to Diagnose Neonatal Cholestasis
Objectives: The study aimed to construct an advanced gene panel to ascertain the genetic etiology of patients with neonatal/infantile intrahepatic cholestasis (NIIC), and test patients with NIIC in a clinical setting. Methods: From the group of NIIC patients, whom we had previously tested with our old 18‐gene panel from May 2013 to September 2017 but ...

My path to citrin deficiency. [PDF]
Abstract Citrin belongs to the SLC25 transport protein family found mostly in inner mitochondrial membranes. The family prototype, the ADP–ATP carrier, delivers ATP made inside mitochondria to the cellular cytoplasm and returns ADP to the mitochondrion for resynthesis of ATP.

Inborn disorders of the malate aspartate shuttle
Abstract Over the last few years, various inborn disorders have been reported in the malate aspartate shuttle (MAS). The MAS consists of four metabolic enzymes and two transporters, one of them having two isoforms that are expressed in different tissues. Together they form a biochemical pathway that shuttles electrons from the cytosol into mitochondria,
