Clinical utility of endomyocardial biopsies in the diagnosis of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy in children.

abstract：:Infantile Refsum's disease is characterized by high levels of phytanic acid and the absence of normal hepatic peroxisomes. We investigated the in vivo influence of phytol, a precursor of phytanic acid, on peroxisomes by both biochemical and morphological methods. Enhanced supply of phytol in the diet of adult mice cau...
