Glutaric acidemia type I (GA-I) is an inherited metabolic disease characterized by accumulation of glutaric acid (GA) and seizures. The intrastriatal GA administration in rats has been used as an animal model to mimic seizures presented by glutaric acidemic patients. m-Trifluoromethyl diphenyl
Glutaric acidemia type I (GA-I) is an inherited metabolic disease characterized by accumulation of glutaric acid (GA) and seizures. Considering that seizures are precipitated by common infections in children with GA-I, we investigated whether lipopolysaccharide (LPS) modifies GA-induced
Glutaric acidemia type I (GA-I) is an inherited metabolic disease characterized by striatal degeneration, seizures, and accumulation of glutaric acid (GA). Considering that GA impairs energy metabolism and induces reactive species generation, we investigated whether the acute administration of
Monosialoganglioside (GM1) is a glycosphingolipid that protects against some neurological conditions, such as seizures and ischemia. Glutaric acidemia type I (GA-I) is an inherited disease characterized by striatal degeneration, seizures, and accumulation of glutaric acid (GA). In this study, we
The effect of intrastriatal administration of glutaric acid (GTR), a metabolite that accumulates in glutaric acidemia type I (GA-I), on the behavior of adult male rats was investigated. After cannula placing, rats received unilateral intrastriatal injections of GTR buffered to pH 7.4 with NaOH or
L-2 Hydroxyglutaric aciduria is a rare metabolic disorder which is autosomal recessive in inheritance. It is characterised by the increased urinary excretion of L-2 hydroxyglutaric acid and the diagnosis is based on the increased levels of the L-2 hydroxy glutaric acid in the urine, serum & CSF.
Glutaric acidaemia type I (GA-I) is a cerebral organic disorder characterized by the accumulation of glutaric acid (GA) and seizures. As seizures are precipitated in children with GA-I and the mechanisms underlying this disorder are not well established, we decided to investigate the role of nitric
We report six patients with glutaric aciduria type 1 in four families. The patients had marked clinical variability, even within families. Three of the patients studied were normal until the onset of neurologic abnormalities, that presented as an encephalitis-like illness in the first year of age.
A 10-month-old male with glutaric aciduria type-1 (GA-1) is reported. This patient showed frequent partial motor seizures, irritability, and involuntary movements, including oral dyskinesia at the age of 3 months. On admission, magnetic resonance (MR) scanning revealed a chronic subdural hematoma
Glutaric aciduria type 1 (GA1) is an organic acidaemia. The objective of this study was to describe the profile of patients diagnosed with GA1 at Inkosi Albert Luthuli Central Hospital, Durban, South Africa from 2007 to 2015. We identified 6 children (4 girls, 2 boys) in a retrospective review. The
Glutaric aciduria type I is a rare disorder of organic acid metabolism caused by deficiency of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase, a mitochondrial enzyme. Improper degeneration of amino acids: tryptophan, lysine, and hydroxylysine, results in increased levels of glutaric acid, which typically becomes
Glutaric acidemia type 1 (GA1) is overrepresented in the aboriginal population of Island Lake, Manitoba, and northwestern Ontario who speak the Ojibway-Cree (Oji-Cree) dialect. The carrier frequency in these communities has been predicted to be as high as 1 in 10 individuals. Prior to beginning
Guanidino compounds are known to have important biological roles, such as the participation of arginine in ureagenesis, and of creatine in muscular contraction. On the other hand, the high toxicity of guanidino compounds, such as methylguanidine and guanidine, has been under study for quite a long
SLC25A1 mutations are associated with combined D,L-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria (DL- 2HGA; OMIM #615182), characterized by muscular hypotonia, severe neurodevelopmental dysfunction and intractable seizures. SLC25A1 encodes the mitochondrial citrate carrier (CIC), which mediates efflux of the
A one-year-old girl visited the hospital due to limb torsion and developmental regression for one month after hand, foot and mouth disease. At the age of 11 months, she visited a local hospital due to fever for 5 days and skin rash with frequent convulsions for 2 days and was diagnosed with severe
