Chromatographic components of beta-hexosaminidase in I-cell disease (mucolipidosis II). 1979

A F Van Elsen, and J G Leroy

Isozymes of N-acetyl-beta-D-hexosaminidase in body fluids, culture medium, postmortem organs, and cultured fibroblasts from patients with I-cell disease were resolved by ion exchange column chromatography. The elution pattern was compared in detail with that of the isozymes in control samples. This approach revealed no qualitative differences between the isozymes from the two sources. There is a relative increase of the neuraminidase-sensitive components of hexosaminidase in I-cell disease. This phenomenon is probably related less to the unknown primary defect of the disorder than to the quantitative change in the distribution of hexosaminidase components between the intra- and the extracellular compartment.

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.
