Extractions: Medical Encyclopedia Encyclopedia Disease M -> Metachromatic leukodystrophy Metachromatic leukodystrophy Alternate Names: MLD; Arylsulfatase A deficiency Causes and Risks: Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. 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 the most severe form) is the late infant onset form, which has symptoms such as irritability decreased muscle tone muscle wasting , the loss of the ability to walk. Debility is progressive with blindness seizures , and partial paralysis . Death occurs usually before age 10. Both the juvenile and adult forms have later onset but similar symptoms. In the adult and juvenile forms, psychosis and emotional disturbances are an important part of the illness. The juvenile form is fatal within a few years of diagnosis. The adult form may be drawn out over many years. Prevention: Genetic counseling is recommended for parents with a family history of metachromatic leukodystrophy.

Extractions: Back to Main List Metachromatic Leukodystrophy is unusual among the leukodystrophies because, rather than being caused by too little of a myelin sheath component, it is caused by too much of one. A lack of the enzyme arylsulfatase A leads to a build up of sulfatides, a component of the myelin sheath, in the patient's nervous system in various organs in the body such as the kidney, liver, and gall bladder. The sulfatides are not properly broken down when the enzyme is missing. Although Metachromatic Leukodystrophy, along with Adrenoleukodystrophy, is probably the most frequently observed leukodystrophy, the reason why this increase in sulfatide levels causes demyelination is as yet unknown MLD is an autosomal recessive type of disorder, and manifests in three types: Late Infantile, with onset of symptoms between six months and two years of age; Juvenile, with onset of symptoms after age four until age sixteen years; Adult, with onset of symptoms after age sixteen and characterized by psychiatric disturbances evolving to dementia. Only one form of MLD is seen within a family.
