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

Total hepatectomy and liver replacement (orthotopic liver transplantation) for primary hepatic malignancy [PDF]
There has been a high incidence of tumor recurrence after liver transplantation for primary hepatic malignancy. Nevertheless, a small but significant palliation has been possible with this approach, even in patients who eventually died of recurrence. Two

Involvement of Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Hereditary Tyrosinemia Type I [PDF]
Hereditary tyrosinemia type I (HTI) is the most severe disease of the tyrosine degradation pathway. HTI is caused by a deficiency of fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH), the enzyme responsible for the hydrolysis of fumarylacetoacetate (FAA). As a result, there is an accumulation of metabolites such as maleylacetoacetate, succinylacetone, and FAA.
