    Plasma Uridine as well as Uric Acid is Elevated Following Fructose Loading

    The hyperuricaemia following fructose loading was first demonstrated by Perheen-tupa and Raivio in 1967 (1). Subsequent studies (reviewed in 2) established that this elevation of plasma and urine uric acid con...

    Urinary uracil concentrations are a useful guide to genetic disorders associated with neurological deficits and abnormal pyrimidine metabolism

    Elevated urinary uracil concentrations are characteristic of genetic deficiencies of enzymes catalysing the first two steps of the pyrimidine degradative pathway (Van Gennip et al 1993), dihydropyrimidine dehy...

    Raised IMP-Dehydrogenase Activity in the Erythrocytes of a Case of Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase (PNP) Deficiency

    The presenting features of PNP deficiency may be neurological, usually a mild non-progressive spastic diplegia, or related to immunodeficiency which predominantly affects T-lymphocytes. Patients usually die of...
