| Project Title: | Targeted Metabolomic Analysis in Patients with Wilson Disease Reveals Dysregulated Choline, Methionine and Aromatic Amino Acid Metabolism: Implications for Hepatic and Neurological Phenotypes. |
| Project Summary: | This study is comparing the plasma metabolomics profile of patients with the genetic disorder, Wilson disease, compared to healthy subjects matched by age, sex, and BMI. Wilson disease (WD) is a genetic copper overload condition characterized by hepatic and neuropsychiatric symptoms with a pathogenesis not well-understood. Choline is essential for lipid metabolism and the methionine cycle; a dysregulated methionine cycle is reported in animal models of WD, though not verified in humans. Defects in neurotransmitters, acetylcholine, and biogenic amines are reported in WD patients with neurological presentations. Precursors of these neuromodulators include choline, phenylalanine, tyrosine, and histidine. Less is known about the circulating levels of these precursors in WD. We aimed to study choline, methionine, aromatic amino acids, and phospholipids in serum profiles of WD subjects compared to healthy subjects (HC). |
