Journal ArticleDOI

The multi-faceted aspects of the complex cardiac Nav1.5 protein in membrane function and pathophysiology.

TL;DR: The structural, and functional aspects of Nav1.5 including post-translational modifications in normal conditions, and the main human channelopathies in which this protein may be the cause or trigger are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnostic value of various serum antibodies detected by diverse methods in childhood celiac disease.

TL;DR: The combined antigliadin IgG and IgA antibody assay is suitable for screening large groups of patients and the more demanding and more specific antiendomysium IgA evaluation is required to confirm suspected CD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional characterization of ryanodine receptor (RYR1) sequence variants using a metabolic assay in immortalized B-lymphocytes.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the increased acidification rate of lymphoblastoid cells in response to 4‐CmC is mainly due to RYR1 activation, and this result indicates that the p.Cys4664Arg variant causes a leaky channel and depletion of intracellular stores.
Journal ArticleDOI

The first case of mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase deficiency identified by expanded newborn metabolic screening in Italy: the importance of an integrated diagnostic approach

TL;DR: A pilot expanded newborn screening programme to detect inherited metabolic disorders by means of liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) began in the Campania region, southern Italy, in 2007 and identified a case of mitochondrial acetoacetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) thiolase deficiency [β-ketothiolase (β-KT) deficiency] by analysing the acylcarnitine profile from a dried blood spot with LC-
