Phenylketonuria (PKU; also known as phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) deficiency) is an autosomal recessive disorder of phenylalanine metabolism, in which especially high phenylalanine concentrations cause brain dysfunction. If untreated, this brain dysfunction results in severe intellectual disability, epilepsy and behavioural problems.

Personalized Genotype-Based Approach for Treatment of Phenylketonuria. [PDF]
Modeling the residual enzyme activity of PAH genotypes allows for personalized prediction of patient phenotype and BH4‐treatment response. ABSTRACT Extensive studies have examined the clinical manifestations, pathogenic mechanisms, and genetic variations of phenylketonuria (PKU) across different populations, resulting in a substantial collection of ...

Abstract Background and Aims Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor α (PPARα) regulates fatty acid transport and catabolism in liver. However, the role of intestinal PPARα in lipid homeostasis is largely unknown. Here, intestinal PPARα was examined for its modulation of obesity and NASH. Approach and Results Intestinal PPARα was activated and fatty

Genotype-phenotype correlation in phenylketonuria [PDF]
Introduction. Phenylketonuria is an inborn metabolism error with a high phenotypical variability, due in part to the large number of implicated genetical variants (over 1200 reported) but also due to other factors.

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