Update on Viral Gene Therapy Clinical Trials for Retinal Diseases [PDF]
In 2001, the first large animal was successfully treated with a gene therapy that restored its vision. Lancelot, the Briard dog that was treated, suffered from a human childhood blindness called Leber's congenital amaurosis type 2.

A Specially Designed Multi-Gene Panel Facilitates Genetic Diagnosis in Children with Intrahepatic Cholestasis: Simultaneous Test of Known Large Insertions/Deletions. [PDF]
Large indels are commonly identified in patients but are not detectable by routine Sanger sequencing and panel sequencing. We specially designed a multi-gene panel that could simultaneously test known large indels in addition to ordinary variants, and ...

Neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) is a hereditary metabolic disease arising from biallelic mutations of SLC25A13. This study aimed to explore the characteristics of fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin (FINS ...

ABSTRACT In an infant with cholestasis and recurrent hypoglycemia, the combination of hypercitrullinemia, hypermethioninemia, and hyperthreoninemia should prompt testing for citrin deficiency, because early metabolic and genetic diagnosis allows targeted nutritional treatment and rapid clinical improvement.

Urinary reducing substances in neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency
Neonatal cholestasis due to citrin deficiency is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by mutations in SLC25A13 gene. Mutations in this gene have a relatively high prevalence in East-Asian races compared to European or Afro-Caribbean races ...

Fifteen novel mutations in the SLC25A13 gene of citrin-deficient patients from different countries.
The bold black letters denote the novel mutations, “N” indicates the normal SLC25A13 allele, while “–” means not analyzed. The effects and frequency refer to the corresponding novel mutations. The frequency was calculated based on the screening result by

Hepatic adaptation compensates inactivation of intestinal arginine biosynthesis in suckling mice. [PDF]
Suckling mammals, including mice, differ from adults in the abundant expression of enzymes that synthesize arginine from citrulline in their enterocytes.

The malate–aspartate shuttle supports thermogenic lipid mobilization in brown adipocytes
Brown fat cells burn lipids within their mitochondria to generate heat. This process involves two energy “shuttles,” one of which is naturally blocked during heat production. We found that the second shuttle (MASh) is not required to generate heat. However, when MASh is disabled, the fatty acids meant for fuel are instead converted back into stored fat.
