Previous investigators agree on the increased DNA synthesis and destruction of tissues caused by folic acid (FA) administered parenterally. This study aims to clarify whether DNA degradation due to the destruction of cells and nuclei precedes DNA synthesis following FA

Vigabatrin (gamma-vinyl gamma aminobutyric acid), a recently developed antiepileptic drug, has been extensively evaluated in the treatment of drug-resistant epilepsy. Several case reports demonstrated that vigabatrin affects urinary excretion of several amino and organic acids. Fourteen children were investigated for

Placental uptake and transport of three nonmetabolizable amino acids with different reactivities for transport systems were studied in sheep under normal physiologic conditions. Methylaminoisobutyric acid (MeAIB), which has specific affinity for the sodium-dependent A system transporters, demonstrated placental concentrative uptake

Stavudine (d4T), a nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), can induce lipoatrophy, fatty liver, hyperlactataemia and abnormal liver tests. NRTI toxicity is usually ascribed to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion and impaired mitochondrial respiration. However, NRTIs could have effects unrelated to mtDNA. Recently
