1. Omega 3 fatty acids - Potential modulators for oxidative stress and inflammation in the management of sickle cell disease
Abstract Objective Sickle cell disease is characterized by clinical complications resulting in vaso-occlusive crisis with prominent attributes of oxidative stress, inflammation, and pain. Inflammation is an integral part of this disease which further exacerbates the pain during a crisis. Omega-3 fatty acids are known to possess anti-inflammatory and anti-ag

2. The Role of High Concentrations of Homocysteine for the Development of Fetal Growth Restriction
Resumo Objetivo Avaliar os níveis de homocisteína (Hcy) em três trimestres da gravidez em mulheres com restrição de crescimento fetal (FGR, na sigla em inglês) e avaliar o papel da Hcy como possível preditor de FGR. Métodos Um total de 315 gestantes solteiras foram incluídas no presente estudo de coorte prospectivo e monitoradas desde o 1° trim

3. A Highly Selective Colorimetric Sensor for Cysteine Detection
Introducing a hybrid xanthene as a fluorophore, an ‘ensemble’-based fluorescent sensor (E)-2-(6-(diethylamino)-2-((2-hydroxyphenylimino)methyl)-3-oxo-3H-xanthen-9-yl)benzoic acid (a) was designed and synthesised for detection of cysteine. Cysteine can release CuII ion from the non-fluorescent a-CuII complex. Then hydrolytic cleavage of Schiff base a prod

4. Three Main Causes of Homocystinuria: CBS, cblC and MTHFR Deficiency. What do they Have in Common?
Abstract Genetic homocystinurias are a group of inborn errors of metabolism that result in the massive excretion of homocysteine (Hcy) in the urine due to Hcy accumulation in the body, usually causing neurological and cardiovascular complications. The three most frequent causes are classical homocystinuria [deficiency of cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS)], m

5. Vitaminas antioxidantes na Doença de Parkinson
Resumo A doença de Parkinson é uma enfermidade neurodegenerativa caracterizada pela presença de rigidez, tremor e bradicinesia, sendo um dos distúrbios do movimento mais encontrados na população idosa. Estudos mostraram que o estresse oxidativo, o uso prolongado da droga levodopa no tratamento dessa doença e o aumento da concentração plasmática de

6. Isolated Sulfite Oxidase Deficiency: Response to Dietary Treatment in a Patient with Severe Neonatal Presentation
Abstract Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency (ISOD) is a devastating, neurometabolic disorder caused by mutations in the SUOX gene necessary for the final step in the sulfur-containing amino acid catabolic pathway. Patients classically present in the neonatal period with neurologic manifestations. Biochemical findings include elevated sulfocysteine, low cyst

7. Cardiovascular risk in children and adolescents with end stage renal disease
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate cardiovascular involvement in children and adolescents with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) and to characterize the main risk factors associated with this outcome. METHODS: Cross-sectional study of 69 children and adolescents at renal transplantation and 33 healthy individuals matched by age and gender. The study outcomes were left v

8. Impact of CPS1 Gene rs7422339 Polymorphism in Argentine Patients With Hyperhomocysteinemia
Abstract Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1) is a key gene in the first step of urea cycle and has been correlated with nitric oxide level and vascular smooth muscle activity. A functional single-nucleotide polymorphism C/A at position 4217 in CPS1 (National Center for Biotechnology Information SNP database no. rs7422339, T1405N) was reported to be assoc

9. The Link Between Hyperhomocysteinemia and Hypomethylation: Implications for Cardiovascular Disease
Abstract Increased levels of homocysteine have been established as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) by mechanisms still incompletely defined. S-Adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) is the metabolic precursor of homocysteine that accumulates in the setting of hyperhomocysteinemia and is a negative regulator of most cell methyltransferases. Several observa

10. Homocysteine and Psychiatric Disorders
Abstract Psychiatric disorders are highly prevalent all over the world with a great impact on public health. Altered homocysteine metabolism is implicated in the pathogenesis of many of these disorders, as it can interfere in normal methylation of subcellular components, promote neuroexcitotoxicity, and induce oxidative stress and inflammation. There are cum

11. Isolated and Combined Remethylation Disorders: Biochemical and Genetic Diagnosis and Pathophysiology
Abstract Genetic defects affecting the remethylation pathway cause hyperhomocysteinemia. Isolated remethylation defects are caused by mutations of the 5, 10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), methionine synthase reductase(MTRR), methionine synthase(MTR), and MMADHC genes, and combined remethylation defects are the result of mutations in genes invol

12. Hampered Vitamin B12 Metabolism in Gaucher Disease?
Abstract Untreated vitamin B12 deficiency manifests clinically with hematological abnormalities and combined degeneration of the spinal cord and polyneuropathy and biochemically with elevated homocysteine (Hcy) and methylmalonic acid (MMA). Vitamin B12 metabolism involves various cellular compartments including the lysosome, and a disruption in the lysosomal
