Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the characteristics of lysosomal enzymes in mucolipidosis (ML) type II α/β and type III α/β for the choice of enzyme evaluating indicators.
METHODS:Multiple lysosomal enzymes including α-iduronidase (IDUA), α -N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAGLU), β-galactosidase-1 (GLB1), β-glucuronidase (GUSB), α-galactosidase A (GLA), glucocerebrosidase (GBA) and arylsulphatase A (ASA) in plasma and leukocyte of two Chinese pedigrees with ML type II α/β and type III α/β and healthy controls were determined. Previous publications on ML type II α/β and type III α/β during the last five years were retrieved from PubMed, CNKI and WanFang databases by using "mucolipidosis" as key word.
RESULTS:The activities of several lysosomal enzymes were increased in the plasma of both patients: ASA, IDUA (20-fold) > GUSB (10-fold) > GLB1, GLA (5-fold) > NAGLU (2-fold), whilst there was no significant change in GBA. The activities of several lysosomal enzymes in the leukocyte of the two patients were normal. 15 lysosomal enzymes have been used in 22 previous studies, the most frequently used were hexosaminidase A and B (Hex A+B) (12 papers), α-mannosidase (α-man) (11 papers) and GUSB (10 papers). The degree of Hex A+B and α-man elevation was most obvious (24.4-fold and 24.7-fold on average respectively), followed by ASA (22.4-fold on average), GUSB is 18.8-fold on average.
CONCLUSION:Based on the lysosomal enzyme analysis of the two cases and literature review, ASA, GUSB, Hex A+B and α-man are recommended as the evaluating indicators for lysosomal enzyme analysis of ML type II α/β and type III α/β.
