  • Title: Navigating the Evolving Landscape of Primary Hyperoxaluria: Traditional Management Defied by the Rise of Novel Molecular Drugs.
    Author: Huang Y, Zhu W, Zhou J, Huang Q, Zeng G.
    Journal: Biomolecules; 2024 Apr 23; 14(5):. PubMed ID: 38785918.
    Abstract:
    Primary hyperoxalurias (PHs) are inherited metabolic disorders marked by enzymatic cascade disruption, leading to excessive oxalate production that is subsequently excreted in the urine. Calcium oxalate deposition in the renal tubules and interstitium triggers renal injury, precipitating systemic oxalate build-up and subsequent secondary organ impairment. Recent explorations of novel therapeutic strategies have challenged and necessitated the reassessment of established management frameworks. The execution of diverse clinical trials across various medication classes has provided new insights and knowledge. With the evolution of PH treatments reaching a new milestone, prompt and accurate diagnosis is increasingly critical. Developing early, effective management and treatment plans is essential to improve the long-term quality of life for PH patients.
