methylmalonic acid and Body Weight

methylmalonic acid has been researched along with Body Weight in 29 studies

Methylmalonic Acid: A malonic acid derivative which is a vital intermediate in the metabolism of fat and protein. Abnormalities in methylmalonic acid metabolism lead to methylmalonic aciduria. This metabolic disease is attributed to a block in the enzymatic conversion of methylmalonyl CoA to succinyl CoA.
methylmalonic acid : A dicarboxylic acid that is malonic acid in which one of the methylene hydrogens is substituted by a methyl group.

Body Weight: The mass or quantity of heaviness of an individual. It is expressed by units of pounds or kilograms.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The biochemical and growth responses to dietary branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) intake were studied in two children; one with a disorder of branched-chain amino acid metabolism, maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) (McKusick 24860), and another with methylmalonic aciduria (MMA) (McKusick 25100)."7.68Evaluation of branched-chain amino acid intake in children with maple syrup urine disease and methylmalonic aciduria. ( Carter, RJ; Parsons, HG; Snyder, FF; Unrath, M, 1990)
" The body weight of the mice fed on a B12-deficient diet for 90 days was slightly lower than that of the control mice administrated CN-B12, and the urinary excretion of methylmalonic acid (MMA) was increased."3.72Breeding severely vitamin B12-deficient mice as model animals. ( Arai, K; Funada, U; Kawata, T; Kuwamori, M; Maekawa, A; Matsushita, M; Sanai, T; Tadokoro, T; Tanaka, N; Wada, M; Yamada, H; Yamamoto, Y, 2004)

( Carter, RJ; Parsons, HG; Snyder, FF; Unrath, M, 1990)
"Methylmalonic acidaemia (MMA) is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism that typically presents in infancy with recurrent episodes of metabolic acidosis, developmental delay and failure to thrive."1.33Management of methylmalonic acidaemia by combined liver-kidney transplantation. ( Enns, GM; Millan, MT; Nagarajan, S; Sarwal, MM; Winter, S, 2005)
"To clarify the bioavailability of vitamin B12 in lyophylized purple laver (nori; Porphyra yezoensis), total vitamin B12 and vitamin B12 analogue contents in the laver were determined, and the effects of feeding the laver to vitamin B12-deficient rats were investigated."1.31Feeding dried purple laver (nori) to vitamin B12-deficient rats significantly improves vitamin B12 status. ( Abe, K; Ebara, S; Miyamoto, E; Nakano, Y; Sugiyama, S; Takenaka, S; Tamura, Y; Tsuyama, S; Watanabe, F, 2001)
" We have previously demonstrated that methylmalonic and propionic acids induce a significant reduction of ganglioside N-acetylneuraminic acid in the brain of rats subjected to chronic administration of these metabolites."1.31Ganglioside alterations in the central nervous system of rats chronically injected with methylmalonic and propionic acids. ( Brusque, AM; Pettenuzzo, LE; Raasch, JR; Rocha, HP; Trindade, VM; Wajne, M; Wannmacher, CM, 2002)
"Body weight gains were significantly reduced at 1200 mg/kg and in all feed-restricted animals."1.29Effect of folate supplementation on clinical chemistry and hematologic changes related to bidisomide administration in the rat. ( Masson, M; Palate, B; Roba, J; Vandenberghe, Y, 1995)
" Our results showed that the concentration of IF protein in cerebellum was not affected by the treatments, whereas chronic administration of all drugs significantly decreased NF-H subunit concentration in rat cerebral cortex."1.28Diminished concentration of the NF-H subunit of neurofilaments in cerebral cortex of rats chronically treated with proline, methylmalonate and phenylalanine plus alpha-methylphenylalanine. ( Camargo, MM; Pureur, RP; Rubin, MA; Valente, GB; Wannmacher, CM, 1992)
"Carnitine metabolism was studied in the vitamin B-12-deficient rat to define the relationship between alterations in acylcarnitine generation and the development of methylmalonic aciduria."1.27Carnitine metabolism in the vitamin B-12-deficient rat. ( Brass, EP; Stabler, SP, 1988)
" In addition a dose-response effect of alanine was observed."1.27Alanine decreases the protein requirements of infants with inborn errors of amino acid metabolism. ( Algert, S; Kelts, DG; Nyhan, WL; Prodanos, C; Wolff, JA, 1985)
