  • Screening for Galactosemia: Is There a Place for It?
    International Journal of General Medicine Dovepress open access to scientific and medical research Open Access Full Text Article REVIEW Screening for galactosemia: is there a place for it? This article was published in the following Dove Press journal: International Journal of General Medicine Magd A Kotb Abstract: Galactose is a hexose essential for production of energy, which has a prebiotic Lobna Mansour role and is essential for galactosylation of endogenous and exogenous proteins, cera- Radwa A Shamma mides, myelin sheath metabolism and others. The inability to metabolize galactose results in galactosemia. Galactosemia is an autosomal recessive disorder that affects newborns Pediatrics Department, Faculty of Medicine, Kasr Al Ainy, Cairo University, who are born asymptomatic, apparently well and healthy, then develop serious morbidity Cairo, Egypt and mortality upon consuming milk that contains galactose. Those with galactosemia have a deficiency of an enzyme: classic galactosemia (type 1) results from severe deficiency of galactose-1-uridylyltransferase, while galactosemia type II results from galactokinase deficiency and type III results from galactose epimerase deficiency. Many countries include neonatal screening for galactosemia in their national newborn screening program; however, others do not, as the condition is rather rare, with an incidence of 1:30,000–1:100,000, and screening may be seen as not cost-effective and logistically demanding. Early detection and intervention by restricting galactose is not curative but is very rewarding, as it prevents deaths, mental retardation, liver cell failure, renal tubular acidosis and neurological sequelae, and may lead to resolution of cataract formation. Hence, national newborn screening for galactosemia prevents serious potential life-long suffering, morbidity and mortality.

  • Iowa Newborn Screening Program Annual Report
    Fiscal Year 2016 Blood Spot Newborn Screening Follow Up Report Short Term and Long Term Follow Up Activities The Iowa Newborn Screening Program (INSP) is administered by the Iowa Department of Health (IDPH) in collaboration with the University of Iowa State Hygienic Laboratory (SHL) to provide testing and the Stead Department of Pediatrics at the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital to provide follow up services. Iowa Newborn Screening Dried Blood Spot Program Report Short Term and Long Term Follow Up Activities The following report describes the purpose, processes and activities of the short term and long term follow up program component of the Iowa Newborn Screening Program. There is an appendix listing terms and definitions that readers may wish to refer to while reviewing this document. Program staff members are willing to answer any questions the reader might have. Contact information is provided at the end of the report. Why Do Blood Spot Newborn Screening? Blood spot newborn screening can detect disorders that are life threatening or life changing before an untoward event occurs. Babies can look and act perfectly healthy but still have one of these disorders. Sometimes, it’s literally a matter of a few hours to a few days before tragedy can occur without newborn screening. It is estimated that 12,000 babies are positively impacted by newborn screening efforts in the United States each year. Newborn blood spot screening saves babies lives – it’s as simple as that. An Overview of the Laboratory and Clinical Process of Newborn Screening in Iowa Local Hospital - At 24-48 hours of age, a few drops of blood are taken from a baby’s heel to perform the newborn screening test.

[email protected]; Tel.: +57-1-3208320 (Ext 4099) (A.J.E.M.) Abstract Sphingolipids are lipids derived from an 18-carbons unsaturated amino alcohol, the sphingosine. Ceramide, sphingomyelins, sphingosine-1-phosphates, gangliosides and globosides, are part of this group of lipids that participate in important cellular roles such as structural part of plasmatic and organelle membranes maintaining their function and integrity, cell signaling response, cell growth, cell cycle, cell death, inflammation, cell migration and differentiation, autophagy, angiogenesis, immune system. The metabolism of these lipids involves a broad and complex network of reactions that convert one lipid into others through different specialized enzymes. Impairment of sphingolipids metabolism has been associated with several disorders, from several lysosomal storage diseases, known as sphingolipidoses, to polygenic diseases such as diabetes and Parkinson and Alzheimer diseases.

This leads to severe liver and kidney insufficiency, central nervous system damage and long-term complications in newborns. We present two clinical cases of classical galactosemia diagnosed at the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences (LUHS) Kaunas Clinics hospital and we compare these cases in terms of clinical symptoms and genetic variation in the GALT gene. The main clinical symptoms were jaundice and hepatomegaly, significant weight loss, and lethargy. The clinical presentation of the disease in Patient 1 was more severe than that in Patient 2 due to liver failure and E. coli-induced sepsis. A novel, likely pathogenic GALT variant NM_000155.4:c.305T>C (p.Leu102Pro) was identified and we believe it could be responsible for a more severe course of the disease, although further study is needed to confirm this.

  • DNA Sequence Analysis of Spontaneous Mutagenesis in Saccharomyces Cerevisiae
    Copyright 1998 by the Genetics Society of America DNA Sequence Analysis of Spontaneous Mutagenesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Bernard A. Kunz, Karthikeyan Ramachandran and Edward J. Vonarx School of Biological and Chemical Sciences, Deakin University, Geelong, Victoria, 3217, Australia ABSTRACT To help elucidate the mechanisms involved in spontaneous mutagenesis, DNA sequencing has been applied to characterize the types of mutation whose rates are increased or decreased in mutator or antimutator strains, respectively. Increased spontaneous mutation rates point to malfunctions in genes that normally act to reduce spontaneous mutation, whereas decreased rates are associated with defects in genes whose products are necessary for spontaneous mutagenesis. In this article, we survey and discuss the mutational speci®cities conferred by mutator and antimutator genes in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The implications of selected aspects of the data are considered with respect to the mechanisms of spontaneous mutagenesis.

  • Diagnostic Methods for Lysosomal Storage Disease
    Reports of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Vol.7, No.2, Jan 2019 Review article www.RBMB.net Diagnostic methods for Lysosomal Storage Disease Armin Mokhtariye1,3, Lida Hagh-Nazari1, Abdol-Reza Varasteh2, Fatemeh Keyfi*3 Abstract Lysosomal storage disorders (LSD) are a class of metabolic disturbance in which manifested by the accumulation of large molecules (complex lipids, glycoproteins, glycosaminoglycans, etc.) in lysosomes. LSDs have a wide range of clinical symptoms that may contain organ dysfunction, neurological and skeletal disorders. The first stage of diagnosis is clinically suspected by a physician. Next stage is enzyme activity assays including Fluorometry and MS/MS methods. These methods usually placed in newborn program screening. The second laboratory diagnostic stage is molecular examination (RFLP-PCR and ARMS-PCR, Mutations Scanning Methods, DNA sequencing, MLPA and NGS methods) that is confirmation of the enzyme assays. In this article, routine diagnostic methods for LSDs were discussed. The gold standard for enzyme activity assay and molecular diagnosis is TMS and NGS, respectively. Keywords: Diagnostic methods, Enzyme activity, Lysosomal storage disease, Molecular assay. Introduction Pompe disease is a rare and neuromuscular The last operators in the endocytic process are disorder due to a lack or decrease of the acid alpha lysosomes that cleavage the large molecules into glucosidase (GAA) that leads to a deposit of simpler component (1).
