glycine and Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome

glycine has been researched along with Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome in 21 studies

Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome: An inherited disorder transmitted as a sex-linked trait and caused by a deficiency of an enzyme of purine metabolism; HYPOXANTHINE PHOSPHORIBOSYLTRANSFERASE. Affected individuals are normal in the first year of life and then develop psychomotor retardation, extrapyramidal movement disorders, progressive spasticity, and seizures. Self-destructive behaviors such as biting of fingers and lips are seen frequently. Intellectual impairment may also occur but is typically not severe. Elevation of uric acid in the serum leads to the development of renal calculi and gouty arthritis. (Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, pp127)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" We have examined guanidinoacetate and creatine levels in urine from 11 HPRT deficient patients (9 with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome and 2 with partial deficiency)."3.74Urinary guanidinoacetate and creatine levels in patients with HPRT deficiency. ( Merinero, B; Puig, JG; Torres, RJ; Verdú, A, 2008)
"The Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is an X-linked disorder caused by a virtually complete absence of the key enzyme of purine recycling, hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT)."3.70Adenoviruses encoding HPRT correct biochemical abnormalities of HPRT-deficient cells and allow their survival in negative selection medium.
