Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiolipin deficiency in X-linked cardioskeletal myopathy and neutropenia (Barth syndrome, MIM 302060): a study in cultured skin fibroblasts

TL;DR: Cardiolipin concentrations in cultured skin fibroblasts of 5 patients with X-linked cardioskeletal myopathy and neutropenia and in two groups of control patients were determined to offer a specific biochemical approach to detect this disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pitfalls in the Diagnosis of Patients with a Partial Dihydropyrimidine Dehydrogenase Deficiency

TL;DR: The low activity of DPD measured in PBM cells containing myeloid cells or that measured at a low protein concentration in the assay mixture is not indicative of heterozygosity for a mutant DPD allele, and fibroblasts are suitable to establish a complete deficiency of D PD.
Journal ArticleDOI

1H-NMR Spectroscopy of Body Fluids: Inborn Errors of Purine and Pyrimidine Metabolism

TL;DR: The overview of metabolism that is provided by 1H-NMR spectroscopy makes the technique a valuable screening tool in the detection of inborn errors of purine and pyrimidine metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mrp2-deficiency in the rat impairs biliary and intestinal excretion and influences metabolism and disposition of the food-derived carcinogen 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP)

TL;DR: It is concluded that Mrp2 protects against the carcinogen PhIP by biliary excretion of the parent compound and all major phase-II metabolites, but, more importantly, also by direct extrusion of theparent compound from the gut mucosa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacogenetic and clinical aspects of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency.

TL;DR: Considering the common use of 5FU in the treatment of cancer patients, the severe 5FU-related toxicities in patients with a low DPD activity and the high prevalence of the IVS14 + 1G→A mutation should be routinely carried out prior to the start of treatment with 5FU.
