Disorders of amino-acid transport - what does this mean
Disorders of amino-acid transport occur when the body is unable to absorb and process amino acids from the diet, leading to an accumulation of toxic metabolites in the body. this can lead to a variety of symptoms, including mental retardation, seizures, failure to thrive, and other neurological and metabolic disorders.
What happens during the disease - disorders of amino-acid transport
Disorders of amino-acid transport are caused by a defect in the transport proteins responsible for the movement of amino acids across the cell membrane. this defect can lead to an imbalance of amino acids in the body, resulting in various symptoms such as poor growth, intellectual disability, and seizures.
