We present the case of a 4-day-old newborn with serious dehydration, polypnea, hypertonus and lethargy. Blood analysis showed severe metabolic acidosis with ketonemia, ketonuria and elevation of the GAP anion. Urine analysis revealed increased excretion of 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyrate acid, tiglycine, and 2-methylacetoacetate acid. Neonatal onset of mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (T2) deficiency is exceptional. Most patients have no clinical symptoms in the neonatal period. This entity should be considered in patients with acute metabolic acidosis and ketosis with normal glycemia and aciduria. The urine contains large amounts of 2-methylacetoacetate and its decarboxylation products. In the neonatal period, this inherited disorder of metabolism can produce severe hydroelectrolyte disorders in the form of a gradual process or acute episodes, which can occasionally be fatal. 相似文献

Deficient mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase in fibroblasts from four patients with 3-ketothiolase deficiency was studied using immunochemical methods. We also examined fibroblasts from two heterozygotes, the mother and the brother of the case 1 patient, identified on the basis of the results of the enzyme activity measurements, using 2-methylacetoacetyl-CoA as substrate. The results were as follows: 1) in fibroblasts from all four patients, the thiolase activity using acetoacetyl-CoA was not activated by K+, although that of the controls and the heterozygotes was activated about 2-fold. 2) by immunoblot analyses, mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase was not detectable in fibroblasts from cases 2 and 3, although a very faint band was seen in tissues from cases 1 and 4. However, the band of mitochondrial 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase was clearly detected in all patients to the same extent as in the controls. 3) mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase was observed after pulse labeling for 1-h and a 72-h chase period in three cell lines (cases 1, 2, and 4), but was fainter compared to the controls. In another cell line (case 3), a fluorographic band at the same position was detected following a 1-h pulse, but disappeared following a 6-h chase. These results demonstrate heterogeneity in the enzyme defect resulting in a deficiency of mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase in fibroblasts from patients with 3-ketothiolase deficiency. 相似文献

Erythrocyte transfusion can impair detection of sickle-cell disease, galactosemia, or biotinidase deficiency with newborn screening. We report on 4 infants with SCD in whom delayed diagnosis was associated with neonatal transfusion. In 2 cases, the initial newborn screening showed no hemoglobin S. In no case was the recommended screening >/=120 days from the last transfusion obtained. Two children had significant SCD-related morbidity before diagnosis. 相似文献

Decline of acute encephalopathic crises in children with glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency identified by newborn screening in Germany 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Kölker S Garbade SF Boy N Maier EM Meissner T Mühlhausen C Hennermann JB Lücke T Häberle J Baumkötter J Haller W Muller E Zschocke J Burgard P Hoffmann GF 《Pediatric research》2007,62(3):357-363
Glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase (GCDH) deficiency is a rare neurometabolic disorder that is considered treatable if patients are identified before the onset of acute encephalopathic crises. To allow early identification of affected individuals, tandem mass spectrometry-based newborn screening for GCDH deficiency has been started in Germany in 1999. We prospectively followed neonatally screened patients (n=38) and compared the neurologic outcome with patients from a historical cohort (n=62). In the majority of neonatally screened children, the onset of encephalopathic crises has been prevented (89%), whereas acute encephalopathic crises or progressive neurologic impairment was common in the historical cohort. Neonatal screening in combination with intensive management is effective--even assuming ascertainment bias in the historical cohort. Similar proportions of commonest mutations and biochemical phenotypes (high and low excretors) were found in neonatally screened and historical patients. However, potential predictor variables for mild clinical phenotypes are not yet known and thus a selection of these patients by newborn screening is not excluded. No patient was known to be missed by newborn screening from 1999 to 2005. In conclusion, this study confirms that newborn screening for GCDH deficiency in combination with intensive management is beneficial. 相似文献

Epidemiology of congenital toxoplasmosis identified by population-based newborn screening in Massachusetts. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
BACKGROUND: Fourteen years of newborn screening in Massachusetts for congenital toxoplasmosis infection identified subpopulations that appeared to have higher rates of infection. Elaborating an epidemiologic profile and risk correlates might aid implementing targeted prenatal education and newborn screening strategies with the goal of early postnatal treatment to prevent morbidity. OBJECTIVE: To describe the epidemiology of congenital toxoplasmosis in Massachusetts and risk correlates of infection using birth certificate data. METHODS: A case-control study was conducted based on Massachusetts birth certificate data. Cases were all infants with congenital toxoplasmosis identified by statewide universal newborn screening from 1988 to 1999. Controls were all children born on the same day as those infants in Massachusetts. RESULTS: Factors that strongly predicted congenital toxoplasmosis infection were mother's country of birth outside the US (especially the southeast Asian refugee origin countries of Cambodia and Laos), mother's educational level and higher gravidity. CONCLUSIONS: More extensive, culturally and linguistically appropriate, prenatal education is needed for pregnant women, regardless of a mother's educational level, especially for non-US-born mothers, and not focused only on primiparous women. Other states may be able to use their state-specific birth certificate data to compare risk profiles with those of Massachusetts to guide a toxoplasmosis screening policy on the basis of population similarities and differences. 相似文献

The introduction of tandem mass spectrometry to newborn screening has substantially expanded our ability to diagnose metabolic diseases in the newborn period. We report the first case of neonatal carnitine palmitoyltransferase deficiency II detected by expanded newborn screening with tandem mass spectrometry. The neonate presented with dysmorphic facial features, structural malformations, renal failure, seizures, and cardiac arrythmias and died on the third day of life. This experience illustrates the importance of expanded newborn screening to avoid missing a metabolic diagnosis in early infantile death. 相似文献

Mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (T2) deficiency is an inborn error of metabolism that affects the catabolism of isoleucine and ketone bodies. This disorder is characterized by intermittent ketoacidotic episodes. Recently, we diagnosed T2 deficiency in two patients (GK45 and GK47) by the absence of potassium ion-activated acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase activity, whereas these patients were previously misinterpreted as normal by a coupled assay with tiglyl-CoA as a substrate. This method has been widely used for the enzymatic diagnosis of the T2 deficiency in the United States and Europe. We hypothesized that some residual T2 activity showed normal results in the assay. To prove this hypothesis, we analyzed these two patients together with three typical T2-deficient patients (GK46, GK49, and GK50) at the DNA level. Expression analysis of mutant cDNAs clearly showed that GK45 and GK47 had "mild" mutations (A132G, D339-V340insD) that retained some residual T2 activity, at least one of two mutant alleles, whereas the other three patients had null mutations (c.52-53insC, G152A, H397D, and IVS8+1g>t) in either allele. These results raise the possibility that T2-deficient patients with mild mutations have been misinterpreted as normal by the coupled assay with tiglyl-CoA. 相似文献

Trifunctional protein (TFP) plays a significant role in the mitochondrial beta-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids. Its deficiency impairs the energy generating function of this pathway and causes hypoketotic hypoglycemia once hepatic glycogen stores are depleted. A Reye-like syndrome, cardiomyopathy, and sudden death may follow. The diagnosis is based on demonstration of significantly decreased enzyme activity of at least two of the three involved enzymes in fibroblasts. The possibility of prospective diagnosis of TFP deficiency by newborn screening using tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) has not been evaluated. We report the postmortem diagnosis of a male newborn, who suffered sudden death at 2 wk of age, and his younger sister, who died of cardiomyopathy complicated by acute heart failure at the age of 6 mo, after she had acquired a common viral infection. Blood spots from the original newborn screening cards were the only remaining material from the patients. Analysis by MS/MS revealed acylcarnitine profiles consistent with either TFP or long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase (LCHAD) deficiency. To prove the diagnosis, the alpha- and beta-subunit genes coding for TFP were examined. The patients were compound heterozygous for a 4-bp-deletion and an a-->g missense mutation, both in the same exon 3 donor consensus splice site. This is the first report of the diagnosis of TFP deficiency using blood spots obtained for newborn screening and suggests that TFP deficiency may be detectable by prospective newborn screening using MS/MS. 相似文献

We describe two asymptomatic newborns with nutritional vitamin B12 deficiency in whom increased urinary methylmalonic acid was detected by routine neonatal screening at 3 weeks of age. Both infants were exclusively breast-fed. One mother suffered from pernicious anaemia, and the other was a strict vegetarian. Both mothers had no clinical or haematological abnormality, aside from a borderline mean corpuscular volume for the vegetarian mother. This report illustrates the early appearance of functional vitamin B12 deficiency in breastfed infants of vitamin B12-depleted mothers. It also demonstrates that urinary methylmalonic acid measurement is a sensitive indicator of tissue vitamin B12 deficiency. 相似文献

Background
Medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCADD) is a disorder of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and is one of the most common inborn errors of metabolism. Identification of MCADD via newborn screening permits the introduction of interventions that can significantly reduce associated morbidity and mortality. This study reports on the first three years of newborn screening for MCADD in Ontario, Canada. 相似文献17.

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether asymptomatic persons with biochemical evidence of very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency identified through expanded newborn screening with tandem mass spectometry have confirmed disease. STUDY DESIGN: We characterized 8 asymptomatic VLCAD-deficient individuals by enzyme and/or mutational analysis and compared them with clinically diagnosed, symptomatic patients with regard to mutations, enzyme activity, phenotype, and age of disease onset. RESULTS: VLCAD molecular analyses in 6 unrelated patients revealed the previously reported V243A mutation, associated with hepatic or myopathic phenotypes, on 7/12 alleles. All other mutations were also missense mutations. Residual VLCAD activities of 6% to 11% of normal were consistent with milder phenotypes. In these identified individuals treated prospectively with dietary modification as preventive measures, clinical symptoms did not develop during follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: MS/MS-based newborn screening correctly identifies VLCAD-deficient individuals. Based on mutational and enzymatic findings, these infants probably are at risk of future disease. Because life-threatening metabolic derangement can occur even in otherwise mild phenotypes, we advocate universal newborn screening programs for VLCAD deficiency to detect affected patients and prevent development of metabolic crises. Longer-term follow-up is essential to define outcomes, the definite risk of future disease, and appropriate treatment recommendations. 相似文献

We describe an asymptomatic male infant with isolated 3-methylcrotonyl-coenzyme A carboxylase deficiency who came to medical
attention by newborn mass screening due to elevated blood leucine. The diagnosis was made by abnormal urinary organic acids
at 20 days of age and was confirmed by assay of the carboxylase activities in cultured skin fibroblasts.
Conclusion More attention should be paid to slight elevations of leucine levels in newborn mass screening. Urinary organic acid analysis
should be performed in conspicuous cases.

Early recognition by newborn screening and oral biotin supplementation may prevent clinical and neurological deficits in profound biotinidase deficiency (residual plasma biotinidase activity <10%). In order to evaluate possible correlations of molecular characteristics, onset and continuation of treatment and clinical outcome, we investigated 21 patients detected by newborn screening and consecutive family investigations. In 18 patients found by newborn screening, the range of biotinidase activities was 0%-9% residual activity. Application of a sensitive HPLC assay enabled us to discriminate five patients with residual biotinidase activities <1%. Two patients with zero activities were homozygous for the G98:d7i3 mutation and three patients with activities <1% carried mutations G98:d7i3, R157H, and Q456H. The mutation spectrum of the remaining patients included T532M, A171T+D444H, V62M,C432W, and D444H. Evaluation of clinical and neuropsychological outcome showed that only patients with biotinidase activities <1% exhibited characteristic clinical symptoms within the first weeks of life whereas five patients with residual activities of 1.2%-4.6% did not develop clinical symptoms even when not treated until 3.5-21 years. In all patients treated with biotin within the first weeks of life, neuropsychological outcome was normal whereas abnormal in three out of five patients tested for IQ and treated after the age of 3.5 years. CONCLUSION: The clinical and molecular spectrum of profound biotinidase deficiency is heterogeneous. Early onset of symptoms is predicted by the presence of zero residual activity as measured by sensitive assays and by homozygosity for the G98:d7i3 mutation. In patients with higher residual activities and variable mutational spectrum, correlation with the onset and severity of symptoms cannot be made. 相似文献
