الوصف: | Background: In NANS deficiency, biallelic mutations in the N-acetylneuraminic acid synthase (NANS) gene impair the endogenous synthesis of sialic acid (N-acetylneuraminic acid) leading to accumulation of the precursor, N-acetyl mannosamine (ManNAc), and to a multisystemic disorder with intellectual disability. The aim of this study was to determine whether sialic acid supplementation might be a therapeutic avenue for NANS-deficient patients. Methods: Four adults and two children with NANS deficiency and four adult controls received oral NeuNAc acid (150 mg/kg/d) over three days. Total NeuNAc, free NeuNAc and ManNAc were analyzed in plasma and urine at different time points. Results: Upon NeuNAc administration, plasma free NeuNAc increased within hours (P |
