3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaric aciduria is a rare human autosomal recessive disorder caused by deficiency of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA lyase (HL). This mitochondrial enzyme catalyzes the common final step of leucine degradation and ketogenesis. Acute symptoms include vomiting, seizures and lethargy, accompanied by metabolic

The aims of the present study were to (i) determine the presence and concentration of albumin fractions (alpha1, alpha2, beta, gamma), immunoglobulins (IgA, IgG, IgM) and cytokines [interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)] in periovulatory ovarian follicular fluid (FF)

Two methods, spectrophotometry and HPLC, were compared in the analyses of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase (HL) activity in three unrelated Czech patients with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric (HMG) aciduria and their family members. The HL activities in cultured fibroblasts and/or isolated lymphocytes of probands were

3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaric aciduria is a human autosomal recessive metabolic disorder that usually appears within the first year of life. The causes of this aciduria are lethal mutations in the gene encoding for 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A lyase (HL). HL is a mitochondrial
C Mir et al.
Journal of inherited metabolic disease, 29(1), 64-70 (2006-04-08)
3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaric aciduria is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder that affects ketogenesis and leucine metabolism. The disease is caused by mutations in the gene coding for 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A lyase (HL). To date 26 different mutations have been described. A (betaalpha)(8)
