PKU clinical presentation
|
Musty body odor
mental retardation growth retardation Seizures eczemia Fair Skin |
|
PKU treatment
|
Decrease phenylalanine (contained in aspartame [nutrasweet])
Increase Tyrosine in diet |
|
PKU MOA
|
Phenylpyruvic acid build up causes the problems
↓phenylalanine hydroxylase OR ↓ tetrahydrobiopterin cofactor Tyrosine becomes essential, deceased 5HT and DA ↑Phenylalanine leads to phenylketones in urine |
|
Maternal PKU
|
Lack of proper dietary therapy during pregnancy -->microcephaly, mental retardation, growth retardation, and congenital heart defects.
|
|
What leads to the musty body odor in PKU?
|
Disorder of aromatic amino acid metabolism --> musty body odor
|
|
Gene deletion in CF?
|
Autosomal recessive defect in CFTR gene on long arm of chromosome 7
|
|
MOA of CF?`
|
Lungs: deceased Cl- secretion --> decreased Na+ --> deceased H20 movement --> Super thick mucus
Pancreas: plugs cause decrease in fat digestion --> smelly, frothy, malbosption steatorrhea Reproductive: no cilia = infertile |
|
Dx of CF?
|
Sweat test: salty kids
>50 is + Look at stool: malabsorption |
|
Presentation of CF?
|
chronic cough, apathetic, past hx of several infections and is smaller than other classmates
*** |
|
Commonly associated bugs with CF?
|
Aspergillus
Pseudomonas |
|
What can make a HUGE difference in CF patients?
|
partial upregulation of CFTR!
