Abstract

Recent research efforts have yielded new pharmacologic agents for the treatment of hyperammonemia (glycerol phenylbutyrate), N-acetylglutamate synthetase (NAGS) deficiency (carglumic acid) and have suggested a potential role for nitric oxide (NO) precursors in the treatment of NO-dependent features of argininosuccinate lyase (ASL) deficiency.
