Extractions: Disease Injury Nutrition Poison ... Z Definition: Metachromatic leukodystrophy is an inherited disease characterized by the absence of the enzyme arylsulfatase A, which causes a material called cerebroside sulfate to accumulate in cells. This is toxic to the cell, especially neurons (the cells of the nervous system) and causes the problems of the disease. MLD is a member of a class of diseases called lysosomal storage disorders. In these diseases, patients lack a protein needed to metabolize the food we eat. Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait, which means that a person must inherit the defective gene from both parents to be affected. MLD has a wide range of symptoms. As with many other storage diseases, there are forms of early and delayed onset (late infant, juvenile, and adult types). The most common and most severe form is the late infant onset form, which has symptoms such as irritability decreased muscle tone muscle wasting , and the loss of the ability to walk in babies who have started walking. The disease progresses to

Registered: Jun 2001 posted 06-12-2001 12:22 PM My 2 year old Daughter Amber has been recently diagnosed with MLD. I would like to speak with anyone who is or has gone through this horrile disorder with their child. Any help would be appreciated. My e-mail address is kim@addpower.com. IP: Logged Kiwi Mum Registered: May 2001 posted 06-17-2001 05:32 AM Hi Kim Sorry to hear about your diagnosis with your daughter Amber. I would suggest contacting www.mldfamily.org this is a grp of 80 or so mld families who support each other and share info. I have found them a great help.They also have an excellent doctor on the list who has diagnosed many of them and done BMT's. His specialty area is MLD so if anything is happening regarding MLD that would be the place to be. Good Luck Lynne
