Primary L-carnitine deficiencies – symptoms, clinical syndromes, proceed ings

Abstract: StreSzczenieW artykule przedstawiono aktualny stan wiedzy na temat pierwotnych niedoborów L-karnityny. Ponadto w artykule opisano właściwości, funkcje oraz objawy niedoboru L-karnityny. L-karnityna jest zaliczana do substancji witamionopodobnych i odgrywa istotną rolę w organizmie człowieka zwłaszcza w procesie β-oksydacji kwasów tłuszczowych. Objawy niedoboru karnityny są mało specyficzne i z tego powodu są często niezdiagnozowane, szczególnie u dzieci. Wyodrębnia się trzy typy niedoboru karnityny: pierwotny … Show more

“…Systemic primary carnitine deficiency (SPCD) is a progressive autosomal disturbance connected with impaired carnitine uptake by plasmatic membranes because of a deficiency in the OCTN2 transporter, which is coded by the SLC22A5 gene (localized on the 5q31 chromosome). Heterozygous or homozygous deficiency of OCTN2 transporters may be an autism risk factor [ 100 , 101 ]. In early life, SPCD is usually recognized as a metabolic decompensation manifested by hypoketotic hypoglycemia; encephalopathy, frequently connected with liver enlargement; increased serum level of aminotransferases; hyperammonemia; cardiomyopathy; muscular weakness; changed intestinal peristalsis and repeated infections in early life.…”
