Menkes syndrome Medical Family - medicine for the family [ Patient Information / Metabolic Disorders ] Menkes syndrome Menkes syndrome Menkes syndrome is an inborn error of metabolism that markedly decreases the cells' ability to absorb copper. The disorder causes severe cerebral degeneration and arterial changes, resulting in death in infancy. The disease can often be diagnosed by looking at a victim's hair, which appears to be both whitish and kinked when viewed under a microscope. Menkes' disease is transmitted as an X-linked recessive trait. Sufferers can not transport copper, which is needed by enzymes involved in making bone, nerve and other structures. A number of other diseases, including type IX Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, may be the result of allelic mutations (i.e. mutations in the same gene, but having slightly different symptoms) and it is hoped that research into these diseases may prove useful in fighting Menkes' disease. If administered within the first few months of life, copper histidinate appears to be effective in increasing the life expectancy of some patients. However, this treatment only increases life expectancy from three to thirteen years of age, so can only be considered a palliative. A similar condition to Menkes' disease exists in mice; working with these model organisms will help give insight into human copper transport mechanisms, so helping to develop effective treatments for Menkes' sufferers.

The gene has been mapped to Xq13.3, distal to the X inactivation center. Detection of carriers is complicated due generally to the fact that they are phenotypically normal. The findings in a Mexican family in which the mother was found to be obligate carrier with two affected sons are discussed. Key words: Menkes´ syndrome, copper metabolism, detection of carriers.

Disease Management Disease - Menkes syndrome Hypotonia Definition: Menkes syndrome is an inherited disorder that results in problems in multiple parts of the body due to cells not having enough copper. Alternative Names: Steely hair disease; Menkes kinky hair syndrome; Kinky hair disease Causes And Risk: Menkes syndrome is inherited as an X-linked recessive disorder. The disorder is related to deficient levels of copper in the cells. Symptoms include progressive mental deterioration, kinked, twisted and brittle hair, and skeletal changes. Death usually occurs in the first few years of life. About 1 in 300,000 individuals are affected. Prevention: Genetic counseling is recommended for prospective parents with a family history of Menkes syndrome. Evaluation by a geneticist is recommended for maternal relatives of an affected boy to determine genetic risks and carrier status. Symptoms: Pudgy, rosy cheeks
