Perioperative considerations of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency: a case report of two consecutive anesthesia [PDF]

open access: yesAnesthesia and Pain Medicine, 2023
Background Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) deficiency is a rare mitochondrial disorder caused by a genetic mutation affecting the activity of the PDHC enzyme, which plays a major role in the tricarboxylic cycle.

Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathy Associated with Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex Deficiency: Eight Clinical Cases

open access: yesВопросы современной педиатрии, 2021
Background. Defects in pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC), involved in the glycolysis products integration into the cells' energy metabolism, are one of the reasons of mitochondrial pathology development.

Pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency: morphological and metabolic effects, creation of animal model to search for curative treatment

open access: yesFolia Morphologica, 2020
The main source of energy for brain and other organs is glucose. To obtain energy for all tissue, glucose has to come through glycolysis; then as pyruvate it is converted to acetyl-CoA by pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) and finally enters citric ...

Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency – a rare mitochondrial disease in a 4-year-old boy

open access: yesRossiyskiy Vestnik Perinatologii i Pediatrii (Russian Bulletin of Perinatology and Pediatrics), 2020
Pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency is a rare mitochondrial disease characterized by a wide range of neurometabolic manifestations. The disease is caused by insuffici ency of this multienzyme complex, which ensures the integration of pyruvate (the carbohydrate metabolism product) into the cellular energy metabolism.

Thiamine responsive pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency: A potentially treatable cause of Leigh's disease

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Neurosciences, 2017
Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) deficiency is a rare metabolic disorder that affects tissues with high energy demand such as the central nervous system. The clinico-radiological phenotype of Leigh's disease is one of its common presentations. We present a 9-month-old boy with rapidly progressive infantile Leigh's disease.

Neurological, Psychiatric, and Biochemical Aspects of Thiamine Deficiency in Children and Adults. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Thiamine (vitamin B1) is an essential nutrient that serves as a cofactor for a number of enzymes, mostly with mitochondrial localization. Some thiamine-dependent enzymes are involved in energy metabolism and biosynthesis of nucleic acids whereas others ...

Pitfalls of relying on genetic testing only to diagnose inherited metabolic disorders in non-western populations - 5 cases of pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency from South Africa

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2020
Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) deficiencies are a group of mainly infantile onset disorders stemming from defects in pyruvate catabolism. They are characterised by severe lactic acidosis and progressive neurodegeneration.Although the PDHA1 gene is
