Cystinuria - An Inborn Error of Metabolism in Biochemistry
Offered By: Medicosis Perfectionalis via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a comprehensive 10-minute video lecture on cystinuria, an autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism. Delve into the genetic kidney disease characterized by a defective carrier protein in kidney tubules, leading to impaired reabsorption of dibasic amino acids. Understand the formation of cystine kidney stones, their hexagonal structure, and the role of acidic urine. Learn about symptoms such as flank pain, dysuria, hematuria, and urinary tract infections. Differentiate cystinuria from cystinosis and gain insights into the biochemistry of amino acids, dipeptides, tripeptides, oligopeptides, polypeptides, and proteins. Designed for medical professionals, including doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and students preparing for various medical exams.
