Abstract
Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) deficiency is an inherited metabolic disorder caused by a defect in any subunit of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC), which has an essential role in glucose metabolism. The causes of disease progression in PDH deficiency are not fully understood yet. Based on repeated observations of a patient with PDH deficiency at our center, we hypothesized that stress-induced gluconeogenesis contributes to rapid exacerbation of the disease.
