32. Urea Cycle Management urea cycle disorders Background Rebecca S. Wappner urea cycle disordersare estimated to occur in 1 in 30,000 live births. All are inherited http://www.meadjohnson.com/metabolics/ureacycle.html

Urea Cycle Disorders: Background Rebecca S. Wappner, M.D. Director, Metabolism Clinic Team Riley Hospital for Children, Indianapolis, IN The urea cycle consists of a series of enzymatic reactions that convert ammonia, released during protein catabolism, into urea. Urea, or waste nitrogen, is then excreted in the urine. Defects in the urea cycle result in the accumulation of ammonia and its precursor amino acids, i.e. glutamine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and glycine. Elevated plasma levels of ammonia are highly neurotoxic in humans. Urea cycle disorders are estimated to occur in 1 in 30,000 live births. All are inherited as autosomal recessive traits with the exception of ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency, which is inherited as an X-linked trait. Families of patients with urea cycle disorders should receive genetic counseling, as carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis are available for most disorders. Patients most often present during the neonatal period with a rapidly progressive neurologic deterioration that starts after a 1-2 day period of apparent normalcy. As ammonia levels increase, affected patients develop poor feeding, anorexia, behavioral changes, irritability, vomiting, lethargy, ataxia, seizures, coma, cerebral edema, and ultimately circulatory collapse. Less severe forms may present at any age, even in adulthood, with intermittent symptoms of hyperammonemia, behavioral problems, or neurologic dysfunction.

Home Adult Metabolic Diseases Find Out About a Specific Disease Urea Cycle Defects ... How do People Get Urea Cycle Disorders? How are Urea Cycle disorders treated? Resources References How are Urea Cycle disorders treated? Diet Knowing how the urea cycle works will help you to understand the treatment better. The first part of treatment is reducing protein in the diet . If less protein is taken in, there is less ammonia for the urea cycle to remove. Protein in the diet is lowered by avoiding protein-rich foods like meat and milk. Examples of low protein foods are fruits, vegetables and starches. These foods provide calories without loading the body with protein. Calories are a very important part of the diet. The body can use them for fuel without breaking down its own reserves. If the body does not have adequate fuel in the form of calories, it will actually begin to break down muscle to provide energy. Muscle is protein and will increase ammonia levels in the same way as eating protein will. The metabolic dietician works with people to make adjustments to diet to ensure that it is providing adequate calories and nutrients. Medications Some people with urea cycle disorders need to take medication to help rid their bodies of excess ammonia.

35. How Do People Get Urea Cycle Disorders? How do People Get urea cycle disorders? urea cycle disorders are genetic. Thesefour urea cycle disorders affect boys and girls equally. http://www.vanhosp.bc.ca/html/wellness_amdc_findout_urea_howdo.html

Home Adult Metabolic Diseases Find Out About a Specific Disease Urea Cycle Defects ... What is a Urea Cycle Disorder? How do People Get Urea Cycle Disorders? How are Urea Cycle disorders treated? Resources References How do People Get Urea Cycle Disorders? Urea cycle disorders are genetic. This means that the person has the disorder from the time they are conceived. At conception, a baby receives two sets of genetic material, one from the mother and one from the father. This genetic material, called DNA , acts as a recipe for the baby's development. DNA includes information about the baby's eye and hair colour, sex, and even whether the baby will be right or left-handed. DNA comes in units called genes . Each pair of genes gives directions to a certain part of the body. Genes also give instructions on how the body breaks down protein. If the gene gives the wrong instructions, protein will not be broken down properly in the body. The first four urea cycle disorders on the list above are caused by getting two copies of the faulty gene, one from the mother and one from the father. If the child inherits only one copy of the gene, they are a
