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

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
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.

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]
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 ...
