Argininemia is a rare hereditary disease due to a deficiency of hepatic arginase, which is the last enzyme of the urea cycle and hydrolyzes arginine to ornithine and urea. The onset of the disease is usually in childhood, and clinical manifestations include progressive spastic paraparesis and mental retardation. Liver involvement is less frequent and usually not as severe as observed in other UCDs. For this rea...

Introdução: Classicamente, e com base na apresentação fenotípica, os doentes com cistinúria classificavam-se em tipo I e tipo não I. Mais recentemente e com base nos aspectos genéticos da doença podemos identificar: o tipo A, causada por mutações no gene SLC3A1, o tipo B, causada por mutações no gene SLC7A9 Objectivos e metodologia: O objectivo deste trabalho foi rever o estado actual do conhecimento no que se ...
Blomia tropicalis, Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus and D. farinae are prevalent house dust mites. Concanavalin A-binding components derived from B. tropicalis (Bt-ConA extract) are highly immunogenic in allergic diseases. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the humoral and cellular immune responses to B. tropicalis in mite-sensitized patients. A total of 137 patients with allergic rhinitis with/without ...
Blomia tropicalis (Bt) and Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Dp) are the prevalent house dust mites in tropical countries and are associated with allergic diseases. Glycosylated antigens are highly immunogenic and involved in different pathologies. We evaluated the presence of IgE, IgG1, and IgG4 to concanavalin A-binding antigens (Bt-Con-A) isolated from Bt-total extract in sera of allergic and non-allergic subj...
