A Single‐Center Retrospective Cohort Study of Biopterin Metabolism Disorders in the United Arab Emirates

open access: yesJIMD Reports, Volume 66, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) deficiencies comprise a group of five neurometabolic disorders caused by five genetic defects responsible for BH4 biosynthesis and regeneration. Their global prevalence remains unknown, and variance exists among different countries.

Recommendations for the use of sapropterin in phenylketonuria

open access: yes, 2012
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inherited disorder of phenylalanine (Phe) metabolism. Until recently, the only treatment for PKU was a Phe-restricted diet.

An Oxford Nanopore Technologies–Based Sequencing Assay for Molecular Diagnosis of Phenylketonuria and Variant Frequencies in a Turkish Cohort

open access: yesInternational Journal of Genomics, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by mutations in the PAH gene, resulting in deficient phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) enzyme activity and neurotoxic phenylalanine accumulation. Untreated PKU results in progressive neurodegeneration and severe intellectual disability.

Relative Oral Bioavailability and Food Effects of Two Sepiapterin Formulations in Healthy Participants

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, Volume 13, Issue 5, Page 506-516, May 2024.
Abstract Sepiapterin is an orally administered drug in development for the treatment of phenylketonuria, an inborn error of metabolism characterized by the deficiency of the phenylalanine‐metabolizing enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase. This study characterized the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of 2 clinical sepiapterin formulations (Phase 1/

State‐of‐the‐art 2023 on gene therapy for phenylketonuria

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 47, Issue 1, Page 80-92, January 2024.
Abstract Phenylketonuria (PKU) or hyperphenylalaninemia is considered a paradigm for an inherited (metabolic) liver defect and is, based on murine models that replicate all human pathology, an exemplar model for experimental studies on liver gene therapy.

DNACJ12 deficiency in patients with unexplained hyperphenylalaninemia: two new patients and a novel variant

open access: yes, 2021
In addition to tetrahydrobiopterin deficiencies and phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency (phenylketonuria) due to PAH variants, the deficiency of the co-chaperone protein DNAJC12 was identified in 2017 as a novel cause of inherited hyperphenylalaninemia,
