Z Contents of this page: Alternative names MLD; Arylsulfatase A deficiency Definition Return to top Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a genetic disorder that affects nerves, muscles, and other organs. It gets progressively worse over time. MLD is usually caused by the lack of an important enzyme called arylsulfatase A. Because this enzyme is missing, chemicals called sulfatides accumulate in the nervous system, kidneys, gallbladder, and other organs. The sulfatides damage the nerves and organs where buildup occurs. In particular, it damages the myelin sheaths that surround nerve cells. There are three forms, based on when the symptoms begin: Late infantile symptoms usually begin by age 4. The symptoms include problems walking, loss of muscle control, and loss of mental functions. Juvenile symptoms begin between 4 and 6 years old. The child has trouble walking and loses developmental milestones. The first sign may be deteriorating school performance.

Leukodystrophies are a group of genetic nervous system disorders affecting the myelin sheath, which insulates the axon through which nerve impulses are conducted. ULF is supported solely by donations. FAQ - What is Leukodystrophy?

     Extractions: Lack of blood supply and/or lack of adequate oxygen delivery causes hypoxic damage to the nervous system: for example, post cardiac-arrest encephalopathy. The brain has a high metabolic demand reflected in the large proportion of cardiac output which it receives. Thus mild decreases in cerebral blood flow or oxygenation can cause changes in brain function. If the patient survives, there will be demyelination of white matter in the centrum semiovale after several days have passed. Thus the patient may awaken feeling fine and develop neurologic symptoms days later ("postanoxic delayed demyelination"). This is thought to occur because oligodendrocytes suffer hypoxic injury. Because the metabolic turnover of myelin is slow, symptoms don't develop for days.
