We describe two patients with short-chain acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) dehydrogenase (SCADH) deficiency. Neonate I excreted large amounts of ethylmalonate and methylsuccinate; ethylmalonate excretion increased after a medium-chain triglyceride load. Neonate II died postnatally and excreted ethylmalonate, butyrate, 3-hydroxybutyrate, adipate, and

We provide immunocytochemical evidence that the neuronal isoform of constitutive NO synthase (cNOS) is expressed in the rat insulinoma cell line INS-1. Furthermore, using N omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), a pharmacological inhibitor of cNOS activity, we show that this enzyme

HPLC-MS-based metabonomic analysis was used to investigate urinary metabolic perturbations associated with D-serine-induced nephrotoxicity. D-Serine causes selective necrosis of the proximal straight tubules in the rat kidney accompanied by aminoaciduria, proteinuria and glucosuria. Alderely Park (Wistar-derived) rats were dosed with
