Differential diagnosis of (inherited) amino acid metabolism or transport disorders [PDF]
__Abstract__ Disorders of amino acid metabolism or transport are most clearly expressed in urine. Nevertheless the interpretation of abnormalities in urinary amino acid excretion remains difficult. An increase or decrease of almost every amino acid in

ABSTRACT Undoubtedly the nutritional management of inborn errors of protein metabolism (IEPM) has improved since the early 1950s, but it is still associated with significant patient burden. The pace of development has not kept up with the increasing demands of the ‘real world’ or development in other areas of medicine. It is essential that research and

Pediatric liver transplantation from neonatal donors [PDF]
Sixteen recipients of neonatal liver grafts were compared with 114 contemporaneous pediatric recipients of grafts from older donors. Graft and patient survival were worse in the neonatal group although the differences were not statistically significant ...

Food for thought : palatable eponyms from Pediatrics [PDF]
Food-related medical terms are frequently used in the field of pediatrics for the definition, recognition and diagnosis of disease. Almost 40 food-related medical eponyms used in Pediatrics have been ‘cherry picked’ and described by the authors.

Prognostic value of thyroid hormone levels in patients evaluated for liver transplantation [PDF]
The thyroid hormones T4, T3, rT3 and TSH were assayed in 134 adult patients evaluated and accepted as potential liver transplant candidates at the Universty of Pittsburgh from March, 1981 to December, 1983.

Lipid Nanoparticles for Delivery of CRISPR Gene Editing Components
The review presents a comprehensive overview of each component of lipid nanoparticles(LNPs)and their effects on editing efficiency. It specifically highlights strategies for achieving non‐liver delivery, aiming for broader applications in gene editing. Furthermore, this review summarizes the applications of LNPs in gene editing and offers insights for ...

A clinical case of late diagnosis of a chronic type I tyrosinemia
Tyrosinemia type 1 is a genetic disease mainly of the first months and years of life caused by a violation of normal tyrosine catabolism with the formation of final toxic metabolites that have a direct damaging effect on the liver and kidneys with the ...

Genome editing with Cas9 in adult mice corrects a disease mutation and phenotype [PDF]
We demonstrate CRISPR-Cas9–mediated correction of a Fah mutation in hepatocytes in a mouse model of the human disease hereditary tyrosinemia. Delivery of components of the CRISPR-Cas9 system by hydrodynamic injection resulted in initial expression of the

Abstract Background Dysfunction of δ‐aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD), the second enzyme involved in heme biosynthesis, leads to two pathologies: genetic and acquired. The genetic form is an ultrarare, severe childhood‐onset disease inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, whereas the acquired form usually affects adults due to enzyme ...

Inborn errors of metabolism such as phenylketonuria (PKU) and maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) can cause severe developmental problems. Both conditions can lead to harmful levels of keto acids in biofluids—phenylpyruvic acid (PPA) in PKU and branched‐chain α‐keto acids in MSUD. Monitoring urinary keto acids helps track dietary adherence and reduces the
