מחלות מטבוליות Flashcards
What the different in High amonia / low amonia + AG normal
High amonia- urea cycle problem
low amonia- def. in amino acid metabolism
Normal amonia + normal AG meytabolic disorders
- PKU
- Tyrosinemia
- homocystenurea
- maple syrup
most common disorder in Urea cycle
what inheritance?
clinical menefecstation
Ornithine transcarbamylase def.- Xlinked = affect more boys
Clinical menefistation:
hyperamonimeia - in newborn boys
in girls- episodes of high amonia - vomiting and CNS involvemtn (ataxia, confusion, agitation ) mainly after consuming large amount of proteins / stress like inf.
which AA will be high in ornithine transcarbamylase def.?
High glutamine and alanine and orotic acid in blood and urine
What will be eleveted in Homocystenurea
methionine + homocysteine
Whats the syndrome:
short sature, macrochepaly, flat face, porminant forhead and short hands
father also has
what is the complications
Achondroplasia
complications:
Hydrochepalus
central apasia
pressure in brainstem
they have normal lifestyle and intelligence.
**Dgx- ** clinical findings and X-ray
Ehaler donler syndrome need to see 2 things
Hypernobility / elestisicty +
easy bruising
Which disease is X-lined dominant when the boys are not survive?
RETT
Which enzyme is def. in PKU?
phenylalanine hydroxylase
Which AA is become essential in PKU?
Tyrosine
beacuse phenylalanine cannot be converted to tyrosine
Which enzyme def. a/w rare form of PKU?
Dihydropteridine reductase (DHPR)
no BH2 convert to BH4
except of PKU also Tryptophan and tyrosine hydroxylase def.»_space; low cathecolamines + seratonin
Alkaptonuria is a def in which enzyme?
what is the clinical presentation?
Homogentisate oxidase def.
clinical presentation - due to accumulation of homogentisic acid
bleck urine
blue-black deposition on cartilage + connetive tissue: eye, ears, nose, hands , degenerative arthritis
converstion of Homogentisic acid to maleylacetoacetic acid
avoid in diet from tyrosine and phenylalanine
Which AA is restricted in Alkaptonuria?
Tyrosine + phenylalanine
What are the branced chain AA and which enzyme is catabolized them?
which disease is a/w that enzyme?
AA:
leucine
isoleucine
valine
enzyme- BCKDC = Brachned chain ketoacid dehydrogenase complex
maple syrup disease
What is the clinical presentaiton of maple syrup:
- maple syrup / sugar smelling urine
- branched chain keto-acid in urine and blood
- on first days- vomiting, feeding problems, irritability, lethargy
- complications: sezures, cerebral edema, dystonia, psychomotor delay and Intellectual disability
