Galactosialidosis: low beta-galactosidase activity in serum after long-term clotting. 1985

H Sakuraba, and Y Iimori, and Y Suzuki, and J A Kint, and M Akagi

Serum beta-galactosidase activity was found to be markedly increased in clotting blood from normal subjects, but patients with galactosialidosis showed only a slight increase of this enzyme activity. Consequently, the beta-galactosidase activity was low in serum after long-term clotting in patients with this disease. The mechanism of the enzyme activation is unknown. The use of anticoagulants completely inhibited the activation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D005696 Galactosidases A family of galactoside hydrolases that hydrolyze compounds with an O-galactosyl linkage. EC 3.2.1.-. Galactosidase
D005733 Gangliosidoses A group of autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorders marked by the accumulation of GANGLIOSIDES. They are caused by impaired enzymes or defective cofactors required for normal ganglioside degradation in the LYSOSOMES. Gangliosidoses are classified by the specific ganglioside accumulated in the defective degradation pathway.
