Phenylketonuria

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2021
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.

Teaching perspectives on the communication of difficult news of genetic conditions to medical students

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 1, Page 299-305, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Informing parents that their child has a diagnosis of Down syndrome (DS) is a common example of the delivery of unexpected or difficult news. Expectations and life planning will change, and if detected prenatally, discussions might include the option of pregnancy termination.

Improvement of a synthetic live bacterial therapeutic for phenylketonuria with biosensor-enabled enzyme engineering

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
In phenylketonuria (PKU) patients, a genetic defect in the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) leads to elevated systemic phenylalanine (Phe), which can result in severe neurological impairment.

Examining the relationship between cognitive inflexibility and internalizing and externalizing symptoms in autistic children and adolescents: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesAutism Research, Volume 15, Issue 12, Page 2265-2295, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Compared to neurotypical peers, autistic adolescents show greater cognitive inflexibility (CI) which manifests at the behavioral and cognitive level and potentially increases vulnerability for the development of internalizing (INT) and externalizing (EXT) symptoms.

Characterization of an engineered live bacterial therapeutic for the treatment of phenylketonuria in a human gut-on-a-chip

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Engineered bacteria (synthetic biotics) represent a new class of therapeutics that leverage the tools of synthetic biology. Translational testing strategies are required to predict synthetic biotic function in the human body.

Long‐term cognitive and psychosocial outcomes in adults with phenylketonuria

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2021
Previous studies have suggested that cognitive and psychosocial underfunctioning in early‐treated adults with phenylketonuria (PKU) may be explained by suboptimal adherence to dietary treatments, however, these studies often employ small samples, with ...

Intestinal peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor α‐fatty acid‐binding protein 1 axis modulates nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
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

The Adult Phenylketonuria (PKU) Gut Microbiome

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inborn error of phenylalanine metabolism primarily treated through a phenylalanine-restrictive diet that is frequently supplemented with an amino acid formula to maintain proper nutrition.

ENPP1 deficiency: A clinical update on the relevance of individual variants using a locus‐specific patient database

open access: yesHuman Mutation, Volume 43, Issue 12, Page 1673-1705, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Loss‐of‐function variants in the ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family member 1 (ENPP1) cause ENPP1 Deficiency, a rare disorder characterized by pathological calcification, neointimal proliferation, and impaired bone mineralization. The consequence of ENPP1 Deficiency is a broad range of age dependent symptoms and morbidities

Deep learning serves traffic safety analysis: A forward‐looking review

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 22-71, January 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper explores deep learning (DL) methods that are used or have the potential to be used for traffic video analysis, emphasising driving safety for both autonomous vehicles and human‐operated vehicles. A typical processing pipeline is presented, which can be used to understand and interpret traffic videos by extracting operational safety ...
