methylmalonic acid and Demyelinating Diseases

methylmalonic acid has been researched along with Demyelinating Diseases in 5 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.

Demyelinating Diseases: Diseases characterized by loss or dysfunction of myelin in the central or peripheral nervous system.

"Methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria, cblC type, is the most common inborn error of vitamin B(12) (cobalamin) metabolism."7.76Early onset methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria cblC type with demyelinating neuropathy. ( Della Giustina, E; Frattini, D; Fusco, C; Tavazzi, B; Ucchino, V, 2010)
