enfermedad por deficiencia de glucosilceramida beta glucosidasa
síndrome de lipidosis por cerebrósidos
Scope note: Trastorno autosómico recesivo causado por deficiencia de la beta-glucosidada ácida (GLUCOSILCERAMIDASA) que lleva a la acumulación intralisosómica de glicosilceramida principalmente en las células del SISTEMA FAGOCÍTICO MONONUCLEAR. Las células de Gaucher características, HISTIOCITOS rellenos de glicoesfgingolípidos, desplazan las células normales de la MÉDULA ÓSEA y órganos viscerales, lo que causa deterioro esquelético, hepatoesplenomegalia y disfunción de órganos. Hay varios subtipos atendiendo a la presencia e intensidad de la afectación neurológica.

Scope note: An autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of acid beta-glucosidase (GLUCOSYLCERAMIDASE) leading to intralysosomal accumulation of glycosylceramide mainly in cells of the MONONUCLEAR PHAGOCYTE SYSTEM. The characteristic Gaucher cells, glycosphingolipid-filled HISTIOCYTES, displace normal cells in BONE MARROW and visceral organs causing skeletal deterioration, hepatosplenomegaly, and organ dysfunction. There are several subtypes based on the presence and severity of neurological involvement.
