Pyruvate Carboxylase Deficiency and Lactic Acidosis in a Retarded Child without Leigh's Disease [PDF]
A child with lactic acidosis, severe mental and developmental retardation, and proximal renal tubular acidosis is presented. Biopsy and autopsy studies show severe hepatic, renal cortical, and cerebral deficiencies in pyruvate carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.1) activity. The patient had 1.81 +/- 0.20 units/g fresh weight at biopsy and 0.75 +/- 0.07 units/g fresh

Deletion of Pyruvate Carboxylase in Tubular Epithelial Cell Promotes Renal Fibrosis by Regulating SQOR/cGAS/STING‐Mediated Glycolysis [PDF]
Renal fibrosis is a common pathway involved in the progression of various chronic kidney diseases to end‐stage renal disease. Recent studies show that mitochondrial injury of renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) is a crucial pathological foundation for

92 A GLYCOGEN STORAGE DISEASE TYPE I AND III(GSDI, III) AND PYRUVATE CARBOXYLASE DEFICIENCY (PCD): NOCTURNAL GASTRIC DRIP FEEDING VERSUS ADMINISTRATION OF UNCOOKED CORN STARCH! [PDF]
In three patients with GSD I, three with GSD III and one with PCD (age 4-20 y) nocturnal drip feeding (duration 2-8 y) was replaced by administration of uncooked corn starch in curd. To reach comparable serum glucose levels over night and in the morning (70-100 mg/dl) as during drip feeding, the starch had to be given 1-2 × per night.

A case of pyruvate carboxylase deficiency with longer survival and normal laboratory findings.
Pyruvate carboxylase deficiency (PCD) is a rare autosomal recessive defect in a biotin-containing enzyme, Pyruvate carboxylase, which is considered as an enzyme of TCA-cycle regulation, gluconeogenesis, lipogenesis, and biosynthesis of neurotransmitters.

Case Report: Prenatal neurological injury in a neonate with pyruvate carboxylase deficiency type B
Background Pyruvate carboxylase (PC) is a key enzyme for gluconeogenesis. PC deficiency (PCD) is an extremely rare autosomal recessive metabolic disease and is divided into three types. Type B PCD is clinically featured by lactic acidosis, hyperammonemia,
