Descriptor English: Pyruvate Carboxylase Deficiency Disease
Descriptor Spanish: Enfermedad por Deficiencia de Piruvato Carboxilasa
Descriptor enfermedad por deficiencia de piruvato carboxilasa
Entry term(s) acidosis láctica con ataxia tipo II
Scope note: Trastorno metabólico autosómico recesivo originado por la ausencia o disminución de la actividad de la PIRUVATO CARBOXILASA, enzima que regula la gluconeogénesis, lipogénesis y síntesis de neurotransmisores. Las manifestaciones clínicas incluyen acidosis láctica, convulsiones, insuficiencia respiratoria, acusado retraso psicomotor, HIPOGLUCEMIA periódica e hipotonía. El curso clínico puede ser similar al de la ENFERMEDAD DE LEIGH. (Am J Hum Genet 1998 Jun;62(6):1312-9)

Scope note: An autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by absent or decreased PYRUVATE CARBOXYLASE activity, the enzyme that regulates gluconeogenesis, lipogenesis, and neurotransmitter synthesis. Clinical manifestations include lactic acidosis, seizures, respiratory distress, marked psychomotor delay, periodic HYPOGLYCEMIA, and hypotonia. The clinical course may be similar to LEIGH DISEASE.
