L-Arginine:Glycine Amidinotransferase Deficiency

L-Arginine:glycine amidinotransferase deficiency is a very rare inherited condition in which the body cannot make enough creatine, a substance the brain and muscles need for energy. Children usually show delayed development, limited speech and low muscle tone. Treatment with oral creatine supplements can improve symptoms, especially when started early, and is continued lifelong alongside developmental support.

This overview is general information, not an individual medical assessment. Research is selected automatically and may include mismatches. How we select and explain research.

L-Arginine:Glycine Amidinotransferase Deficiency is very rare and little research has been published, so this page includes research from every year, including case reports about individual patients. Case reports are marked, and describe one person's experience rather than tested results.
