The FDA has accepted for Priority Review the NDA for SL1009 to treat pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency.
All 3 patients with the pyruvate kinase deficiency were found to have elevated values for erythrocyte glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphoglycerate kinase and acid phosphatase.
Pyruvate kinase deficiency is the most frequent abnormality of the glycolytic pathway and, together with a deficiency in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), is the most common cause of ...
Pyruvate dehydrogenase E1-alpha deficiency (PDHAD) results in lactic acidosis and hyperpyruvatemia. Two patients with PDHAD, a man with a p.R263Q mutation, and a girl with a p.C145del mutation in ...
Just before she turned one, Harlow was diagnosed with Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex Deficiency, commonly called PDCD.
Indications: Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency, typically associated with post-prandial lactic acidemia with a normal lactate/pyruvate ratio, can be assayed in freshly isolated blood ...
A lactate/pyruvate ratio less than 25 suggests pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency (PDH) or other disorders of pyruvate metabolism, whereas a ratio greater than 25 suggests a respiratory chain ...
DCA is a targeted therapy that inhibits Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase (PDK) to stimulate residual Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex (PDC) activity and increase energy (ATP) production by mitochondria.
Thiamine is a cofactor of several enzymes, including transketolase, pyruvate dehydrogenase, and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase.
