BACKGROUND
Cystinuria is an inherited disorder of cystine and dibasic amino acids transport that results in urolithiasis because of poor cystine solubility. Three cystinuria phenotypes, differentiated according to urinary amino acid excretion in obligate heterozygotes, were regarded as allelic
13 patients had during their work up for growth retardation an intravenous arginine load. The urinary amino acid pattern before and after arginine administration was checked in comparison to 10 control patients. There was no significant difference between the individual groups. After the arginine
Ileal transport of dibasic amino acids has not previously been studied in the intestine of healthy volunteers or cystinuric patients. Experiments have therefore been designed to compare ileal and jejunal absorption of lysine and arginine both in normal subjects and cystinuric patients. In addition,
1. Arginine-hydrochloride and ornithine-aspartate solutions have been infused intravenously to children of two families. Three children of the WOL. family are affected with hyperargininemia and hyperammonemia, due to a lack of arginase. They present a secondary cystine-lysinuria. The three WIL.
To study the defective transport mechanism of cystinuria, renal tubular reabsorption of lysine or arginine in normal and cystinuria subjects was investigated by increasing the filtered load employing intravenous amino acid infusion. In the normal group the amino acid reabsorption rose with increases
Advances in molecular genetics have brought a deeper understanding of cystinuria. This autosomal recessive disease, which is caused by a defective tubular reabsorption of cystine and the three dibasic amino acids arginine, lysine and ornithine, results in a lifelong risk of renal stone formation
A unique metal-organic framework with the formula [Cd4(H2L)2(L)·H2O]·3H2O (H4L = 5,5'-(1H-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-diyl)diisophthalic acid) was successfully constructed under solvothermal conditions. The frameworks with multiple free Lewis
Separate tolerance tests involving oral intake of the dipeptide, L-arginyl-L-aspartate, and of a corresponding free amino acid mixture, were carried out in a single type 2 cystinuric patient. Absorption of aspartate was within normal limits, whilst that of arginine was normal after the peptide but
Cystinuria is an autosomal recessive disorder with an estimated incidence of 1 case in 7000 live births, that results in elevated urinary excretion of cystine and dibasic aminoacids: ornithine, lysine and arginine. Discussed by Sir Archibald Edward Garrod, in 1908, as one of the four first known
Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy of urine (as well as of other biological fluids) is a very powerful technique enabling multi-component analysis useful in both diagnosis and follow-up of a wide range of inherited metabolic diseases. Among these pathologies, cystinuria is
1. The effect of intravenous infusion of L-lysine and L-arginine on the tubular reabsorption of dibasic amino acids and cystine was studied in normal individuals and in homozygous and heterozygous subjects with cystinuria. 2. The control subjects reabsorbed almost all filtered lysine and arginine
The injection of cycloleucine (1-aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid (ACPC) into rats produces a hyperexcretion of dibasic amino acids and cystine, an aberration resembling cystinuria. This may constitute a model of experimental cystinuria, and the transport of amino acids involved in this disease was
Cystinuria is an aminoaciduria due to the impairment of transport of cystine and dibasic amino acids (arginine, ornithine, and lysine) in the apical membrane of the intestinal epithelium and proximal renal tubule. The result is an absence of cystine reabsorption in the renal tubule producing an
