    Protein involved in Iron metabolism disorder (HFE) Inherited metabolic disorders are one cause of metabolic disorders, and occur when a defective gene causes an enzyme deficiency. [6] These diseases, of which there are many subtypes, are known as inborn errors of metabolism. [7] Metabolic diseases can also occur when the liver or pancreas do ...

    In milder forms, epileptic seizures can be treated with anti-convulsants however, many patients with moderate to severe forms experience refractory epilepsy, which is not well controlled with medications.

    Accumulation of protein metabolic waste products in the body can cause diseases and serious complications such as gout, uremia, acute renal failure, seizure, encephalopathy, and death. These products of protein metabolism, including urea, uric acid, ammonia, and creatinine, are compounds that the human body must eliminate in order for the body ...

    Hyperprolinemia can also occur with other conditions, such as malnutrition or liver disease. In particular, individuals with conditions that cause elevated levels of lactic acid in the blood, such as lactic acidemia, are likely to have elevated proline levels, because lactic acid inhibits the breakdown of proline.
