Biochemical characteristics, genetic variants and treatment outcomes of 55 Chinese cases with neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency [PDF]
BackgroundThe diagnostic criteria of neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) have not been established due to non-specific clinical manifestations, and our understanding on the treatment outcome is still limited.

Dual Urea Cycle Dysfunction Caused by Coexisting Argininosuccinic Aciduria and Citrin Deficiency: Clinical, Biochemical, and Molecular Insights From an Exceptional Case. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Dual inherited defects affecting urea cycle function are exceptionally rare. We report the first case, to our knowledge, of the coexistence of argininosuccinic aciduria (ASA) and citrin deficiency (CD). A girl born to consanguineous Tunisian parents presented at 6 months of age with recurrent seizures, vomiting, developmental delay, and severe

Neonatal Acute Liver Failure due to Citrin Deficiency (NALFCD). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Both citrin deficiency (CD) and citrullinemia type I (CTLN1) may be detected by elevated citrulline through newborn screening (NBS) or present as acute liver failure in later infancy, but they differ significantly in management. This may pose therapeutic challenges in the early period after presentation while awaiting diagnostic confirmation ...

Identification of Novel Mutations in Chinese Infants With Citrullinemia
Citrullinemia is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by elevated concentrations of citrulline in the blood resulting from malfunction of the urea cycle. It is categorized into two types, types I and II, which are caused by argininosuccinate

Rapid Genetic Diagnosis of Citrin Deficiency by Multicolor Melting Curve Analysis
Citrin deficiency caused by SLC25A13 genetic mutations is an autosomal recessive disease, and four prevalent mutations including c.851_854del, c.1638_1660dup, IVS6+5G>A, and IVS16ins3kb make up >80% of total pathogenic mutations within the Chinese ...

From the cytosol to the inner membrane: biogenesis of the mitochondrial carrier family. [PDF]
Abstract Mitochondrial carrier proteins are essential for cellular physiology as they are active in a wide range of metabolic pathways including production of cellular energy, amino acid synthesis, redox balance and ion homeostasis. The double membrane of mitochondria provides a tightly gated environment through which carrier proteins facilitate the ...
