Potential role of tetrahydrobiopterin in the treatment of maternal phenylketonuria.

Pediatrics - 1 Dec 2003

Trefz Friedrich K, Blau Nenad

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical relevance of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) supplementation for pregnant women with phenylketonuria (PKU)/hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) and the possibility of treating these patients with BH4 instead of a phenylalanine (Phe)-restricted diet. METHODS: Genotyping was pe...
