Entry term(s) deficiencia de UDPglucosa-hexosa-1-fosfato uridililtransferasa
enfermedad por deficiencia de UDPglucosa 4-epimerasa
enfermedad por deficiencia de galactocinasa
enfermedad por deficiencia de galactoquinasa
enfermedad por deficiencia de galactosa-1-fosfato uridiltransferasa
Scope note: Grupo de deficiencias enzimáticas hereditarias que se caracterizan por elevaciones de la GALACTOSA en sangre. Esta afección puede asociarse con deficiencias de GALACTOCINASA, UDP-GLUCOSA-HEXOSA-1-FOSFATO URIDIL TRANSFERASA o UDP-GLUCOSA 4-EPIMERASA. La forma clásica se origina por deficiencia de la UDP-glucosa-hexosa-1-fosfato uridiltransferasa, y se presenta en la infancia con INSUFICIENCIA PONDERAL, VÓMITOS, e HIPERTENSIÓN INTRACRANEAL. Los individuos afectados pueden tener también RETRASO MENTAL, ICTERICIA, hepatoesplenomegalia, INSUFICIENCIA OVÁRICA PREMATURA, y cataratas. (Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, pp61-3)

Scope note: A group of inherited enzyme deficiencies which feature elevations of GALACTOSE in the blood. This condition may be associated with deficiencies of GALACTOKINASE; UDPGLUCOSE-HEXOSE-1-PHOSPHATE URIDYLYLTRANSFERASE; or UDPGLUCOSE 4-EPIMERASE. The classic form is caused by UDPglucose-Hexose-1-Phosphate Uridylyltransferase deficiency, and presents in infancy with FAILURE TO THRIVE; VOMITING; and INTRACRANIAL HYPERTENSION. Affected individuals also may develop MENTAL RETARDATION; JAUNDICE; hepatosplenomegaly; ovarian failure (PRIMARY OVARIAN INSUFFICIENCY); and cataracts.
