The company added that the funds will be used to support the pre-clinical development of an exosome-based therapy to treat
argininosuccinic aciduria (ASA) in collaboration with University College London (UCL).
In this study, six newborn cases diagnosed between 2010-2014 as citrullinemia Type I (four cases) and
argininosuccinic aciduria (two cases) are presented in terms of clinical course and treatment responses.

Argininosuccinic aciduria (ASAuria; OMIM 207900) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of the urea cycle caused by deficiency of the enzyme argininosuccinate lyase (ASL; EC 4.3.2.1) (1).
FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
Argininosuccinic aciduria (urea cycle defect).
Epidemiology, symptoms, and treatments are the same as those for
argininosuccinic aciduria.

argininosuccinic aciduria; C12, dodecanoylcarnitine; C18:10H, hydroxyoctadecenoylcarnitine; C180H, hydroxyoctadecanoylcarnitine; IVA, isovaleric acidemia; 3-MCC, 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase; HMG, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase.
Thus, ORA aciduria is observed in patients with ornithine carbamoylasetransferase deficiency (OCTD), an X-linked disorder, and could reveal heterozygosity after a protein load, and in citrullinemia,
argininosuccinic aciduria, and argininemia (2, 3).
