Lactate and pyruvate as inborn errors of metabolism screening markers and their analytical challenges—a review

open access: yesDiscover Applied Sciences
This comprehensive review emphasizes the significance of lactate, pyruvate, and its ratio in the initial screening of Inborn errors of Metabolism. Inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) is a heterogeneous group of disorders resulting in metabolic dysfunction ...

Amino Acid Profile and Lactate Pyruvate Ratio: Potential Adjunct Markers for Differentiating Inborn Errors of Metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Clinical Biochemistry, 2019
Inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) lead to the physical and mental disability and death of infants, which can be prevented if treated early. Hence it is imperative in diagnosing these disorders at the earliest. The study is planned to differentiate suspected IEM by quantifying the lactate-pyruvate ratio (L/P ratio), Amino acid profiling by HPLC in ...

Ketogenic diet in action: Metabolic profiling of pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2023
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex serves as the main connection between cytosolic glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle within mitochondria. An infant with pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency was treated with vitamin B1 supplementation and a

Deuterium metabolic imaging and hyperpolarized 13C-MRI of the normal human brain at clinical field strength reveals differential cerebral metabolism

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2022
Deuterium metabolic imaging (DMI) and hyperpolarized 13C-pyruvate MRI (13C-HPMRI) are two emerging methods for non-invasive and non-ionizing imaging of tissue metabolism. Imaging cerebral metabolism has potential applications in cancer, neurodegeneration,

Amino acid ratio combinations as biomarkers for discriminating patients with pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency from other inborn errors of metabolism

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2023
AbstractBackgroundPyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency (PDCD) is a mitochondrial neurometabolic disorder of energy deficit, with incidence of about 1 in 42,000 live births annually in the USA. The median and mean ages of diagnosis of PDCD are about 12 and 31 months, respectively.

A liver-specific defect of Acyl-CoA degradation produces hyperammonemia, hypoglycemia and a distinct hepatic Acyl-CoA pattern. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Most conditions detected by expanded newborn screening result from deficiency of one of the enzymes that degrade acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) esters in mitochondria.

Ketogenic Diet: An Early Option for Epilepsy Treatment, Instead of A Last Choice Only

open access: yesBiomedical Journal, 2012
Ketogenic diet (KD) was usually tried as a last resort in the treatment of intractable epilepsy after failure of many antiepileptics and even epilepsy surgery. Glucose transporter-1 deficiency and pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency must be treated with KD

Long-term use of investigational β-Hydroxybutyrate salts in children with multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase or pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports
Several disorders of energy metabolism have been treated with exogenous ketone bodies. The benefit of this treatment is best documented in multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD) (MIM#231680).

Animal models of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency: insight into mechanisms of cerebral abnormalities and tissue-specific role in metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
Primary pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) deficiency results from inborn errors in the genes encoding its component proteins with largely devastating outcomes.
