Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to appropriately evaluate the risk of acute metabolic failure in patients with MCAD deficiency found by newborn screening, we have constructed a database of biochemical, enzymatic, and genetic information. We newly diagnosed 27 patients in the last 3 years, and the cumulative number of our diagnosis reached 61. Most cases showed good correlation between blood marker levels and enzymatic activities in sonicated lymphocytes. There were several cases showing dissociation between these indicators, and an assay of fatty acid oxidation by cultured lymphocytes successfully proved their enzymatic defects. In addition, their variant enzymes showed poor response toward C6-CoA, while the major variant enzymes toward C8-CoA. We have to integrate biochemical, enzymatic, and genetic findings to appropriately estimate risk of acute onset harbored by newborn screening patients, which is essential to avoid catastrophic outcomes.
