CHOLESTERYL ESTER STORAGE DISEASE

Alternate names

CHOLESTERYL ESTER STORAGE DISEASE Is also known as cholesterol ester storage disease

Description

Cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD) is a very rare, late-onset, genetic endocrine disease characterized by deficient or inactive lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) causing lipid build-up, which leads to atherosclerosis, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, progressive liver disease, and malabsorption.

Most common symptoms of CHOLESTERYL ESTER STORAGE DISEASE

  • Hepatomegaly
  • Diarrhea
  • Splenomegaly
  • Jaundice
  • Pruritus

SOURCES: ORPHANET

WOLMAN DISEASE

Description

Wolman disease represents the most severe manifestation of lysosomal acid lipase deficiency. Milder phenotypes as a whole are referred to as cholesterol ester storage disease (see this term). The acid lipase enzyme plays an essential role in lysosomal hydrolysis of both esterified cholesterol and triglycerides of lipoproteic origin. In Wolman disease, the rarest form of acid lipase deficiency, these lipids accumulate in most tissues.

Most common symptoms of WOLMAN DISEASE

  • Global developmental delay
  • Growth delay
  • Anemia
  • Hepatomegaly
  • Fever

LYSOSOMAL ACID LIPASE DEFICIENCY

Alternate names

LYSOSOMAL ACID LIPASE DEFICIENCY Is also known as lal deficiency, cholesterol ester hydrolase deficiency, cholesteryl ester storage disease, lipa deficiency, cesd

Description

Deficiency of lysosomal acid lipase causes 2 distinct phenotypes in humans: Wolman disease and cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD). Wolman disease is an early-onset fulminant disorder of infancy with massive infiltration of the liver, spleen, and other organs by macrophages filled with cholesteryl esters and triglycerides. Death occurs early in life. Wolman disease is very rare, with an incidence of less than one in 100,000 live births. CESD is a milder, later-onset disorder with primary hepatic involvement by macrophages engorged with cholesteryl esters. This slowly progressive visceral disease has a very wide spectrum of involvement ranging from early onset with severe cirrhosis to later onset of more slowly progressive hepatic disease with survival into adulthood (summary by Du et al., 2001).

Most common symptoms of LYSOSOMAL ACID LIPASE DEFICIENCY

  • Short stature
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Failure to thrive
  • Anemia
  • Hypertension
