Case Report: The Association of Wilson Disease in a Patient With Ataxia and GLUT-1 Deficiency
Background: Wilson disease (WD) and glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT1) deficiency syndrome are two syndromes with different modes of inheritance but share certain similarities on neurological presentation. To date we have not found previous reports of an

The reduction of IL-6 gene expression, pAKT, pERK1/2, pSTAT3 signaling pathways and invasion activity by gallic acid in prostate cancer PC3 cells [PDF]
Prostate cancer (PC) is one of the most common cancers among men. Progression of prostate cancer is associated with an increase in cellular level of interleukin-6 (IL-6). Gallic acid (GA) is a polyhydroxy phenolic compound which can inhibit the growth of

Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.

The utility of whole exome sequencing in diagnosing Wilson disease: A case report
Abstract Wilson disease (WD) is an autosomal recessive disorder of copper metabolism caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene, resulting in toxic copper accumulation in the body. Diagnosis is typically based on biochemistries, including low serum ceruloplasmin and elevated 24‐h urine copper excretion, with Kayser–Fleischer (KF) rings being a supportive ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Wilson's disease (WD) is a genetic disorder of copper metabolism in which early diagnosis remains challenging, particularly in acute liver failure (ALF). Relative exchangeable copper (REC) and exchangeable copper (CuEXC) are emerging biomarkers for diagnosis and monitoring, but data from larger cohorts are limited.
