Top Highlights

  • ABA-transaminase deficiency is a rare neurodevelopmental and neurometabolic disorder caused by mutations in ABAT and resulting in accumulation of GABA in the cerebrospinal fluid
  • Using an untargeted metabolomics platform, we analyzed EDTA plasma, urine, and CSF specimens from four individuals with GABA-transaminase deficiency to identify biomarkers by comparing the biochemical profile of individual patient samples to a pediatric-centric population cohort.
  • rare genetic disorder that disrupts the degradation of GABA to succinic semialdehyde
  • GABA metabolism to succinic semialdehyde helps to regulate its levels and neurotransmitter activity.
  • uccinate can enter the tricarboxylic acid cycle for NADH and FADH2 production
