pteridines and Phenylketonurias

pteridines has been researched along with Phenylketonurias in 68 studies

Phenylketonurias: A group of autosomal recessive disorders marked by a deficiency of the hepatic enzyme PHENYLALANINE HYDROXYLASE or less frequently by reduced activity of DIHYDROPTERIDINE REDUCTASE (i.e., atypical phenylketonuria). Classical phenylketonuria is caused by a severe deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase and presents in infancy with developmental delay; SEIZURES; skin HYPOPIGMENTATION; ECZEMA; and demyelination in the central nervous system. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p952).

"Tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency is a rare cause of hyperphenylalaninemic syndromes."2.37Tetrahydrobiopterin deficiencies: preliminary analysis from an international survey. ( Dhondt, JL, 1984)
"Patients with phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency show increased concentrations of biopterins and neopterins, and reduced concentrations of serotonin and catecholamines, when phenylalanine concentrations are raised."2.37Pteridines and mono-amines: relevance to neurological damage. ( Howells, DW; Hyland, K; Smith, I, 1986)
"He showed mild mental retardation, and the WAIS was 46 in PIQ, 70 in VIQ and 53 in total IQ."1.29[A case report of mild from of phenylketonuria]. ( Komada, S; Kuzuhara, S; Masuzugawa, S; Narita, Y; Taniguchi, A, 1996)
"In a child with dihydropteridine reductase deficiency (McKusick 26163) none of four separate oral tetrahydrobiopterin loading tests resulted in a decrease of the serum phenylalanine concentration."1.27Dihydropteridine reductase deficiency: non-response to oral tetrahydrobiopterin load test. ( Lipson, A; O'Halloran, M; Potter, M; Wilken, B; Yu, J, 1984)
"Atypical phenylketonuria among infants with hyperphenylalaninemia must be promptly diagnosed and differentiated from classical phenylketonuria, because these patients require different treatment to prevent irreversible neurological damage."1.27Improved diagnosis of classical vs atypical phenylketonuria by liquid chromatography. ( Heininger, JA; Lin, YY; Matsubara, Y, 1984)
"We describe a method of screening for dihydropteridine reductase deficiency and dihydrobiopterin synthesis deficiency--the two inherited defects that cause tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency--using blood spots on Guthrie cards."1.27Blood spots on Guthrie cards can be used for inherited tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency screening in hyperphenylalaninaemic infants. ( Barford, PA; Blair, JA; Leeming, RJ; Smith, I, 1984)
"Since subvariants of patients with BH4 deficiency exist, homovanillic acid, 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid, pterins, phenylalanine, and tyrosine in cerebrospinal fluid should be measured for diagnosis and the control of therapy."1.27Differential diagnosis of tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency. ( Curtius, HC; Niederwieser, A; Ponzone, A, 1985)
"Five patients with torsion dystonia had normal biopterin concentrations."1.27Neurological aspects of biopterin metabolism. ( Cavanagh, NP; Hyland, K; Leeming, RJ; Smith, I, 1986)

"Hyperphenylalaninemia due to dihydropteridine reductase deficiency results from the inability to maintain the aromatic amino acid hydroxylase cofactor, tetrahydrobiopterin, in its reduced or active form."1.26Hyperphenylalaninemia due to dihydropteridine reductase deficiency: diagnosis by measurement of oxidized and reduced pterins in urine. ( Kaufman, S; Milstien, S; Summer, GK, 1980)
"A child diagnosed as having transient phenylketonuria was found to have reduced synthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin and an abnormal clearance of phenylalanine, but he remained clinically normal when on a normal diet."1.26Biopterin defect in a normal-appearing child affected by a transient phenylketonuria. ( Blair, JA; Leeming, RJ; Rey, F; Rey, J, 1980)
"A patient with atypical phenylketonuria and normal liver dihydropteridine reductase and phenylalanine-4-hydroxylase activities excreted neopterin but not biopterin or dihydrobiopterin in urine."1.26Atypical phenylketonuria caused by 7, 8-dihydrobiopterin synthetase deficiency. ( Bettoni, O; Bieri, J; Curtius, HC; Niederwieser, A; Schaub, J; Schircks, B; Viscontini, M, 1979)
"A patient with atypical phenylketonuria (defective BH2 synthesis), detected at age 6 months because of severe muscle hypotonia and serum phenylalanine of 20 mg/100 ml, had normal activities of phenylalanine-4-hydroxylase and DHPR in liver biopsy, but only 2% activity in the phenylalanine-4-hyroxylase in vivo test using deuterated phenylalanine."1.26Tetrahydrobiopterin therapy of atypical phenylketonuria due to defective dihydrobiopterin biosynthesis. ( Bartholomé, K; Bieri, JH; Curtius, HC; Däumling, S; Niederwieser, A; Schaub, J; Schircks, B; Viscontini, M, 1978)
"A patient with hyperphenylalaninaemia, not due to phenylketonuria, had an abnormal biopterin derivatives response to phenylalanine distinct from that of patients with classical phenylketonuria."1.26Biopterin derivatives in normal and phenylketonuric patients after oral loads of L-phenylalanine, L-tyrosine, and L-tryptophan. ( Blair, JA; Green, A; Leeming, RJ; Raine, DN, 1976)
