Tyrosinemia Type I and Reversible Neurogenic Crisis After a One-Month Interruption of Nitisinone
Hereditary tyrosinemia Type I (HTI) is an autosomal recessive disorder due to a deficiency of the enzyme fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase. The liver is the primary organ that is affected and comorbidities with renal and neurologic systems and hepatocellular

Control of Alkaptonuria with Nitisinone and Gene Therapy: A Systematic Review [PDF]
Alkaptonuria (AKU) is a genetic disorder inherited in accordance with Mendel first law. Mutations in the HGA gene result in the AKU disorder. Three major features of this disorder: arthritis, ochronosis, and the presence of Homogentisic Acid (HGA) in the urine.

Studies in alkaptonuria reveal new roles beyond drug clearance for phase I and II biotransformations in tyrosine metabolism [PDF]
Background and Purposealkaptonuria (AKU) is an inherited disorder of tyrosine metabolism caused by lack of the enzyme homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase (HGD).

Nitisinone-Induced Keratopathy in Alkaptonuria: A Challenging Diagnosis Despite Clinical Suspicion [PDF]
Alkaptonuria is a rare disorder of amino acid metabolism that causes premature large joint and spine arthropathy and cardiac valvular disease. It is characterised by elevated levels of homogentisic acid. Nitisinone (NTBC) is a benzoylcyclohexane-1,3-dione that reversibly inhibits the activity of the enzymatic step immediately prior to homogentisate ...

Alkaptonuria: a rare disease with multiorgan manifestation and a long-awaited diagnosis. [PDF]
Alkaptonuria is a rare inherited disease resulting from a genetic variant leading to homogentisic acid accumulation in body tissues, causing a broad spectrum of symptoms. Our case involves a Caucasian male diagnosed in his 70s, who shares a constellation
