“…Therefore, the administration of B-group vitamins is better for the improvement of branched-chain amino acid degradation than that of only vitamin B1. Recently, novel mutations of BCKDC and the related enzyme genes associated with MSUD have been reported (22,23). The participants belonging to the upper tertile in the present experiment might have minor gene mutations of BCKDC and the related genes.…”

“…Based on clinical presentation onset age and residual BCKD complex activity, MUSD can be divided into five forms: classic, intermediate, intermittent, thiamine responsive, and E3 deficient . Approximately 75% of affected individuals has the classic form with less than 2% residual BCKD complex activity and exhibits the most serious phenotype.…”

“…Approximately 75% of affected individuals has the classic form with less than 2% residual BCKD complex activity and exhibits the most serious phenotype. Generally, patients with classic MSUD appear normal at birth but show poor feeding and lethargy within a week followed by more severe symptoms such as convulsions and progressive brain damage . If untreated, this condition is fatal and most patients often die .…”
