Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is the most common liver disease in Western countries, due in large part to its association with type 2 diabetes and obesity. The more advanced form of this disease is known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). If left untreated, NASH can evolve to cirrhosis, the late stage …
Heart damage by copper accumulation has been reported in Wilson's Disease. However, the disease epidemiology is still poorly understood. A number of studies on pediatric populations have not shown any significant cardiac involvement apart from early dysautonomia. This could suggest that the clinical manifestations related to the copper accumulation in …
Patients with Wilson disease have poorer dental and periodontal health and a have lower oral quality of life than control patients. Patients with a neurological form would also more frequently present limitations in the function of the masticatory apparatus. Systemic treatments for Wilson disease are associated with lesions of the …
The purpose of the registry/repository is to provide a mechanism to store data and specimens to support the conduct of future research about Wilson disease (WD). The overall aim is to determine the optimal testing for diagnosis and parameters for monitoring treatment of WD that will aid product utilization and …
Wilson's disease is a rare genetic disease, affecting less than 1,500 people in France. The transmission is autosomal recessive linked to an anomaly of the ATP7B gene on chromosome.This gene codes for an ATPase-type transmembrane protein involved in the transport of copper through the cell plasma member.This gene codes for …
This interventional study has 2 parts. In the part A of the project, we will determine how the acute changes in hepatic fat content (HFC) after high-fat load (150 g of fat) are affected by co-administration with three doses of glucose, fructose, and sucrose. HFC in non-obese and obese male …
Wilson's disease (WD), also known as Wilson's disease, is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by a mutation of the copper transport ATPase β (ATP7B) gene located on the long arm of chromosome 13 (13q14.3). This leads to accumulation of copper ions in multiple organs such as liver, brain …
This study adopted an open, single-arm, non-randomized, dose-escalation research design, aiming to evaluate the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy, pharmacokinetic and immunogenicity characteristics of single and multiple intravenous infusions of DSL101 in patients with Wilson's disease.
Wilson's disease (WD) is a genetic disorder characterized by an accumulation of copper in the body, mainly in the liver and brain. Patients suffering from this disease are monitored by liver function tests, blood copper levels, and 24-hour urinary copper determinations. Treatment is based either on chelating the copper accumulated …
This is a prospective study that will determine the optimal timing for 24-hour urinary copper excretion (UCE) measurement after temporary discontinuation of standard therapies in Wilson Disease (WD) patients. The primary objective is to assess whether off-treatment UCE (OT-UCE) correlates with non-ceruloplasmin-bound copper (NCC) levels, aiming to validate OT-UCE as …
