Definition
English
:
A heterogeneous group of inherited metabolic disorders marked by absent or dysfunctional
PEROXISOMES
. Peroxisomal enzymatic abnormalities may be single or multiple. Biosynthetic peroxisomal pathways are compromised, including the ability to synthesize ether
lipids
and to oxidize long-chain fatty acid precursors. Diseases in this category include
ZELLWEGER SYNDROME
;
INFANTILE REFSUM DISEASE
; rhizomelic chondrodysplasia (
CHONDRODYSPLASIA PUNCTATA
, RHIZOMELIC); hyperpipecolic acidemia; neonatal
adrenoleukodystrophy
; and
ADRENOLEUKODYSTROPHY
(X-linked). Neurologic dysfunction is a prominent feature of most
peroxisomal disorders.
