valproic acid and Adult Fanconi Syndrome

valproic acid has been researched along with Adult Fanconi Syndrome in 31 studies

Valproic Acid: A fatty acid with anticonvulsant and anti-manic properties that is used in the treatment of EPILEPSY and BIPOLAR DISORDER. The mechanisms of its therapeutic actions are not well understood. It may act by increasing GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID levels in the brain or by altering the properties of VOLTAGE-GATED SODIUM CHANNELS.
valproic acid : A branched-chain saturated fatty acid that comprises of a propyl substituent on a pentanoic acid stem.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To investigate the effects of valproic acid (VPA) on renal tubular function, we examined 15 ambulatory children with epilepsy who received VPA for at least 6 months."5.09Renal tubular dysfunction in epileptic children on valproic acid therapy. ( Altunbaşak, S; Anarat, A; Burgut, HR; Yildizaş, D, 2001)
"Two severely disabled children with epilepsy, a 6-year-old boy and a 15-year-old girl, had been treated with valproic acid from the ages of 5 and 6 months, respectively, and developed Fanconi syndrome."3.76Fanconi syndrome caused by valproic acid. ( Endo, A; Fuchigami, T; Fujita, Y; Mugishima, H; Takahashi, S, 2010)
" In addition, the chemotherapeutic agent ifosfamide caused a decrease in plasma GPx activity in pediatric osteosarcoma patients."3.70Plasma glutathione peroxidase and its relationship to renal proximal tubule function. ( Avissar, N; Bhamre, S; Cohen, HJ; Ornt, DB; Salvatierra, O; Scandling, JD; Tham, DM; Tune, BM; Whitin, JC, 1998)
"Valproic acid-treated animals developed biochemical evidence of FS as judged by elevated serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (γ-GT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), creatinine (Cr), and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) along with hypokalaemia, hypophosphataemia, and a decrease in serum uric acid."1.48Mechanism of valproic acid-induced Fanconi syndrome involves mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in rat kidney. ( Heidari, R; Jafari, F; Khodaei, F; Niknahad, H; Shirazi Yeganeh, B, 2018)
"Although Fanconi syndrome is rare in patients with epilepsy treated with sodium valproate (VPA), the prevalence might be higher in children with severe motor and intellectual disabilities (SMID)."1.43Outcome of renal proximal tubular dysfunction with Fanconi syndrome caused by sodium valproate. ( Sato, S; Watanabe, T; Yamazaki, S; Yoshikawa, H, 2016)
"Valproate-induced Fanconi syndrome is a rare adverse effect of valproate."1.40Fever of unknown origin as the initial manifestation of valproate-induced Fanconi syndrome. ( Fujii, T; Kumada, T; Kusunoki, T; Murayama, K; Nozaki, F; Ohtake, A, 2014)
"Although nephrocalcinosis is not a common feature in patients with proximal tubulopathy, the patient presented also with this condition, and the concomitant use of another anticonvulsant might have potentiated this condition."1.38Anticonvulsant-induced rickets and nephrocalcinosis. ( Lau, KK; Papneja, K, 2012)
"Recently, renal Fanconi syndrome associated with VPA treatment has occasionally been reported."1.37[Three cases of Fanconi syndrome associated with valproate sodium treatment]. ( Inoue, T; Itabashi, H; Murakami, N; Nagai, T; Otani, R; Sakuta, R; Tanaka, Y, 2011)
"Although renal Fanconi syndrome resulting from valproate (VPA) has occasionally been reported, the detailed clinical characteristics of this disease remain unclear."1.33Secondary renal Fanconi syndrome caused by valproate therapy. ( Abe, T; Abe, Y; Watanabe, T; Yamazaki, S; Yoshikawa, H, 2005)
"Since Fanconi syndrome was considered to be caused by sodium valproate, it was stopped."1.31Fanconi syndrome caused by sodium valproate: report of three severely disabled children. ( Abe, T; Watanabe, T; Yoshikawa, H, 2002)
" In those patients who use these drugs at increased dosage levels or for long periods, the possibility of tubular dysfunction may be increased, and these dysfunctions may manifest in clinical symptoms."1.30N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase and beta-galactosidase activity in children receiving antiepileptic drugs. ( Cenani, A; Cengiz, M; Cengiz, S; Seven, M; Yüksel, A, 1999)
