Current Treatment Modalities for Urea Cycle Disorders.
Ah Mew N, Lichter-Konecki U. Ah Mew N, et al. Paediatr Drugs. 2025 Nov;27(6):723-734. doi: 10.1007/s40272-025-00719-0. Epub 2025 Sep 22. Paediatr Drugs. 2025. PMID: 40976841 Review.
The urea cycle, a metabolic pathway comprising six enzymes and two transporters, is necessary for mammalian nitrogen detoxification. A deficiency of any of these components disrupts this process, leading to the accumulation of nitrogen in the form of ammonia, which …
