pyruvic acid and Encephalopathy, Hepatic

pyruvic acid has been researched along with Encephalopathy, Hepatic in 10 studies

Pyruvic Acid: An intermediate compound in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. In thiamine deficiency, its oxidation is retarded and it accumulates in the tissues, especially in nervous structures. (From Stedman, 26th ed)
pyruvic acid : A 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid that is the 2-keto derivative of propionic acid. It is a metabolite obtained during glycolysis.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Patients with acute liver failure have a disturbed amino acid metabolism and a compromised oxidative metabolism in the brain."1.38The effect of fractionated plasma separation and adsorption on cerebral amino acid metabolism and oxidative metabolism during acute liver failure. ( Bjerring, PN; Clemmesen, JO; Frederiksen, HJ; Hauerberg, J; Larsen, FS; Nielsen, HB, 2012)
"However, the efficacy of CsA to protect cytotoxic brain edema in ALF is problematic because it poorly crosses the blood-brain barrier, which is relatively intact in ALF."1.35Inhibitors of the mitochondrial permeability transition reduce ammonia-induced cell swelling in cultured astrocytes. ( Norenberg, MD; Rama Rao, KV; Reddy, PV, 2009)
"Because hyperammonemia is thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy, we examined the effects of ammonia on ATP levels, neuronal morphology, and synaptic function in rat hippocampal slices."1.33Ammonia-mediated LTP inhibition: effects of NMDA receptor antagonists and L-carnitine. ( Funatsu, M; Izumi, M; Izumi, Y; Matsukawa, M; Zorumski, CF, 2005)
"Fulminant hepatic encephalopathy has a high mortality."1.33Microdialysis in the management of hepatic encephalopathy. ( Al-Rawi, PG; Czosnyka, M; Gimson, A; Hutchinson, PJ; Menon, DK; O'Connell, MT, 2006)
