Among them are the facts that a well-defined molecular deficiency in an enzyme of purine metabolism is associated with a recognizable pattern of abnormal behavior&#46; Recognizable patterns of human malformations led David Smith to write the book with this name<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> and to launch the specialty of Dysmorphology&#46;

Lesch&#8211;Nyhan disease is also of special biochemical significance as the first cause of hyperuricemia to be defined with an enzymatic etiology&#46; It is the only common cause of overproduction of hyperuricemia and gout&#44;

Navy&#46; It was my good luck that they needed doctors&#59; they sent me right back to Harvard to complete my premedical studies&#44; and at the end of my junior year&#44; which was completed in two calendar years&#44; they sent me to medical school in New York&#46; Columbia University&#39;s College of Physicians and Surgeons&#44; one of the oldest in the country&#44; opened its doors to colonial American students in 1767&#46;</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">I completed a residency in Pediatrics at Yale and undertook to learn Biochemistry under Harris Busch in the Department of Biochemistry&#44; exploring the possibility of metabolic differences between transplanted tumors and nontumor tissues of the rat&#46; Before the first summer was over&#44; Harris&#44; the lab and I moved to the University of Illinois&#44; where in due time I received the Ph&#46;D&#46; I then moved to Johns Hopkins as Assistant Professor of Pediatrics&#44; obtained a grant from the National Institutes of Health&#44; and continued working on amino acids in cancer&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">My focus changed with the admission of the first patient to be described with what we now know as propionic acidemia&#46;

The laboratory was on the top floor of the hospital&#44; and the open wards for patients were on the floors beneath&#46; It was an ideal setting in which to pursue clinical research&#46;</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The first patient was admitted at 4 years of age because of hematuria&#46; A similar episode 5 months earlier had been diagnosed by a physician as hemorrhagic cystitis&#46; In those days interns examined urine samples under the microscope in the Emergency Room&#46; The intern was impressed by the fact that in addition to the erythrocytes&#44; the urine was full of crystals&#46; He and his residents pored over the clinical pathology book in which crystals were identified by their microscopic appearance&#46; They looked just like the pictures of cystine crystals&#44; and the patient was diagnosed as having cystinuria and admitted&#46;</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">That led them on the next morning to my laboratory&#44; where I was asked to confirm the diagnosis by amino acid analysis&#46; Patients with cystinuria excrete not only cystine&#44; but also the dibasic amino acids lysine&#44; ornithine and arginine&#46; The boy&#39;s urine had normal amounts of all these components&#46; It soon became apparent that the crystals were composed of uric acid&#44; and that he had hyperuricemia as well as uricosuria&#46; It appeared that we were dealing with an inborn error of purine metabolism&#46; This was exciting&#46; No previous reports of inborn errors of purine metabolism&#44; even in gout&#44; had ever been defined on a molecular basis&#44; and prior to our experience&#44; gout was known as a disease exclusively of adult males and postmenopausal females&#46;</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It became even more exciting when Mike Lesch and I went downstairs to see the patient&#46; He had all the clinical features of which we now know as the syndrome&#46; He had been diagnosed early with cerebral palsy&#44; and he had a movement disorder that had been referred to as choreoathetosis&#46; Many patients with the disease continue to be categorized in this fashion&#46; More striking than the neurologic picture was the loss of tissue about the lip which had resulted from his biting&#46; He had thick bandages on both hands resembling boxing gloves&#44; and under them we found mutilated fingers&#46; We soon discovered that he had a brother in an institution in Baltimore&#44; arranged his admission&#44; and it was clear that he had all the same features as the brother&#44; including the evidence of self-injurious behavior&#46; It was obvious we had a syndrome&#46; An implication was that we could find chemical clues to abnormal behavior&#46; On this issue we are still looking&#44; but we have learned quite a lot about the biochemistry of the disease&#46;</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It was clear that this was a more important project for Mike Lesch&#44;

Among them are the facts that a well-defined molecular deficiency in an enzyme of purine metabolism is associated with a recognizable pattern of abnormal behavior&#46; Recognizable patterns of human malformations led David Smith to write the book with this name<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> and to launch the specialty of Dysmorphology&#46; In similar fashion I coined the term &#8220;behavioral phenotypes&#8221; in a presidential address to the <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Society for Pediatric Research</span> U&#46;S&#46; in 1972&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> As is true for syndromes of dysmorphism&#44; recognition of a pattern of behavior can lead the astute clinician to the diagnosis&#44; and in the case of Lesch&#8211;Nyhan disease&#44; to ordering the definitive confirmatory diagnostic testing&#46; Lesch&#8211;Nyhan disease is also of special biochemical significance as the first cause of hyperuricemia to be defined with an enzymatic etiology&#46; It is the only common cause of overproduction of hyperuricemia and gout&#44; a disease that has been known since Hippocrates&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">I entered Harvard as an undergraduate during World War II&#44; and before I finished my sophomore year I was drafted into the U&#46;S&#46; Navy&#46; It was my good luck that they needed doctors&#59; they sent me right back to Harvard to complete my premedical studies&#44; and at the end of my junior year&#44; which was completed in two calendar years&#44; they sent me to medical school in New York&#46; Columbia University&#39;s College of Physicians and Surgeons&#44; one of the oldest in the country&#44; opened its doors to colonial American students in 1767&#46;</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">I completed a residency in Pediatrics at Yale and undertook to learn Biochemistry under Harris Busch in the Department of Biochemistry&#44; exploring the possibility of metabolic differences between transplanted tumors and nontumor tissues of the rat&#46; Before the first summer was over&#44; Harris&#44; the lab and I moved to the University of Illinois&#44; where in due time I received the Ph&#46;D&#46; I then moved to Johns Hopkins as Assistant Professor of Pediatrics&#44; obtained a grant from the National Institutes of Health&#44; and continued working on amino acids in cancer&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">My focus changed with the admission of the first patient to be described with what we now know as propionic acidemia&#46; We did not know that then&#44; but knew it had to do with amino acids&#46; Moore and Stein<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> had just published their method of separation of amino acids on cation exchange columns&#46; I set up those very long columns according to their publication and began analyzing amino acids&#46; From then on&#44; our laboratory has been devoted to the study of inborn errors of metabolism&#44; but I kept my hand in cancer research&#46; Mike Lesch was a medical student working on nuclear proteins in cancer in my laboratory when we discovered what is now known as the Lesch&#8211;Nyhan disease&#46;</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The first of our patients was admitted to the Harriett Lane Home of the Johns Hopkins Hospital&#46; The laboratory was on the top floor of the hospital&#44; and the open wards for patients were on the floors beneath&#46; It was an ideal setting in which to pursue clinical research&#46;</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The first patient was admitted at 4 years of age because of hematuria&#46; A similar episode 5 months earlier had been diagnosed by a physician as hemorrhagic cystitis&#46; In those days interns examined urine samples under the microscope in the Emergency Room&#46; The intern was impressed by the fact that in addition to the erythrocytes&#44; the urine was full of crystals&#46; He and his residents pored over the clinical pathology book in which crystals were identified by their microscopic appearance&#46; They looked just like the pictures of cystine crystals&#44; and the patient was diagnosed as having cystinuria and admitted&#46;</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">That led them on the next morning to my laboratory&#44; where I was asked to confirm the diagnosis by amino acid analysis&#46; Patients with cystinuria excrete not only cystine&#44; but also the dibasic amino acids lysine&#44; ornithine and arginine&#46; The boy&#39;s urine had normal amounts of all these components&#46; It soon became apparent that the crystals were composed of uric acid&#44; and that he had hyperuricemia as well as uricosuria&#46; It appeared that we were dealing with an inborn error of purine metabolism&#46; This was exciting&#46; No previous reports of inborn errors of purine metabolism&#44; even in gout&#44; had ever been defined on a molecular basis&#44; and prior to our experience&#44; gout was known as a disease exclusively of adult males and postmenopausal females&#46;</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It became even more exciting when Mike Lesch and I went downstairs to see the patient&#46; He had all the clinical features of which we now know as the syndrome&#46; He had been diagnosed early with cerebral palsy&#44; and he had a movement disorder that had been referred to as choreoathetosis&#46; Many patients with the disease continue to be categorized in this fashion&#46; More striking than the neurologic picture was the loss of tissue about the lip which had resulted from his biting&#46; He had thick bandages on both hands resembling boxing gloves&#44; and under them we found mutilated fingers&#46; We soon discovered that he had a brother in an institution in Baltimore&#44; arranged his admission&#44; and it was clear that he had all the same features as the brother&#44; including the evidence of self-injurious behavior&#46; It was obvious we had a syndrome&#46; An implication was that we could find chemical clues to abnormal behavior&#46; On this issue we are still looking&#44; but we have learned quite a lot about the biochemistry of the disease&#46;</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It was clear that this was a more important project for Mike Lesch&#44; and he began working on it full time&#46; Our first paper in the American Journal of Medicine<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> set out the biochemical features of the disease&#46;

the immunosuppressant&#44; lowers concentrations of uric acid&#44; but it does not in Lesch&#8211;Nyhan disease&#46; Azathioprine is converted to 6-mercaptopurine which must be converted to its ribose monophosphate before it becomes active&#46; The enzyme that catalyzes this conversion is hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase &#40;HPRT&#41; &#40;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0010">Fig&#46; 1</a>&#41;&#46; Seegmiller and colleagues in 1967<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> reported that the activity of this enzyme was defective in this disease&#46;

I soon gave up cancer research and devoted my efforts to the field of biochemical genetics&#44; when the field was just beginning to explode&#46; I have been fortunate over the years to have had a continuous progression of students&#44; fellows&#44; and colleagues with whom we have been able to move the field forward&#46; The advent of recombinant DNA technology and the ability to define mutations have enormously expanded our approaches to this disease and other disorders of metabolism&#46;</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It was in studies of cell cultures established from the original family that Barbara Migeon&#44;
