Pharmacological chaperones in OTC deficiency
from JIMD Podcasts · host Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease
Can small molecules stabilise OTC enzyme activity and change the outlook for urea cycle disorders? Dr Alexander Laemmle (University Hospital Bern) discusses pharmacological chaperones, a novel approach that strengthens enzyme stability in patient-derived liver models and offers new hope for female OTC carriers.
