3-Hydroxyglutaric acid is a glutaric acid derivative which is the byproduct of glutaric acidemia type I. Glutaric aciduria type I (glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency) is an inborn error of metabolism that usually manifests in infancy by an acute encephalopathic crisis and often results in permanent motor handicap. Studies indicate that 3-hydroxyglutaric acid can be used as biomarker for GCDH (glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase) deficiency. It is believed that the excretion of 3-hydroxyglutaric acid is increased during ketosis, which occurs during glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. Studies on striatal cultures show that IGF-1 and FGF-2 (bFGF) reduces 3-hydroxyglutaric acid toxicity in striatal neurons.

Glutaric aciduria type 1, a deficiency of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase, causes an accumulation of neurotoxic metabolites glutaric acid and 3-hydroxyglutaric acid (3-HGA). Testing of these analytes is routinely done by GC-MS but seldom account for interference from isomers or compounds with

Glutaric acidemia type I is an inherited metabolic disorder caused by a severe deficiency of the mitochondrial glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase activity leading to accumulation of predominantly glutaric and 3-hydroxyglutaric acids in the brain tissue of the affected patients. Considering that a

Three patients with ketosis had increased excretion of 3-hydroxyglutarate (21.8-37.9 micromol/mmol creatinine; controls 2.3 +/- 1.6), an indicator of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (GDHD), which normalized when the patients were nonketotic. Clinical assessment of all three patients and enzyme studies in
