Assessment of Nitric Oxide Production in Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathy, Lactic Acidosis, and Stroke-Like Episodes Syndrome with the Use of a Stable Isotope Tracer Infusion Technique Critical Reviews
The objective of this review is to highlight the utility of this method in providing additional evidence for NO deficiency in MELAS syndrome, adding more insight into the potential mechanisms of NO deficiency in this syndrome, and allowing for the assessment of the effects of supplementation with the NO donors, arginine and citrulline, on improving NO production in MELAS syndrome.

Wernicke Encephalopathy Mimicking MELAS
CONCLUSIONS: the case suggests that thiamine deficiency presumably causes mitochondrial dysfunction with cerebrospinal fluid lactic acidosis and a stroke-like lesion mimicking MELAS syndrome. It should be further studied whether nutritional deficits, such as thiamine deficiency, could give rise to secondary stroke-like lesions.PMID:35630076 | DOI:10.3390/medicina58050660
