[Three cases of mucolipidosis type III (author's transl)]. 1979

J Torreblanca, and M C Antelo, and S García García, and J García Consuegra, and F Collado

Three cases of mucolipidosis type III in three siblins ranging in age from 4 to 10 years are reported. One of them was severely involved; the other two in a lesser degree. The enzymatic studies performed are exposed, together with a discussion and interpretation of the findings. The concepts regarding the group of metabolic diseases among which mucolipidosis is nowadays included are reviewed. Some characteristics of the enzymatic disorder, origin of the disease, are finally commented.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008247 Lysosomes A class of morphologically heterogeneous cytoplasmic particles in animal and plant tissues characterized by their content of hydrolytic enzymes and the structure-linked latency of these enzymes. The intracellular functions of lysosomes depend on their lytic potential. The single unit membrane of the lysosome acts as a barrier between the enzymes enclosed in the lysosome and the external substrate. The activity of the enzymes contained in lysosomes is limited or nil unless the vesicle in which they are enclosed is ruptured or undergoes MEMBRANE FUSION. (From Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed). Autolysosome,Autolysosomes,Lysosome
D008297 Male Males
D009081 Mucolipidoses A group of inherited metabolic diseases characterized by the accumulation of excessive amounts of acid mucopolysaccharides, sphingolipids, and/or glycolipids in visceral and mesenchymal cells. Abnormal amounts of sphingolipids or glycolipids are present in neural tissue. INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY and skeletal changes, most notably dysostosis multiplex, occur frequently.
