PROGRESSIVE ENCEPHALOPATHY WITH LEUKODYSTROPHY DUE TO DECR DEFICIENCY

Alternate names

PROGRESSIVE ENCEPHALOPATHY WITH LEUKODYSTROPHY DUE TO DECR DEFICIENCY Is also known as 2,4-dienoyl-coa reductase deficiency, decr deficiency with hyperlysinemia

Description

Progressive encephalopathy with leukodystrophy due to DECR deficiency is a rare mitochondrial disease, which presents with neonatal hypotonia, central nervous system abnormalities (ventriculomegaly, corpus callosum hypoplasia, cerebellar atrophy), acquired microcephaly, failure to thrive, developmental delay and intermittent lactic acidosis provoked by catabolic stress (e.g. infection). Hyperlysinemia and elevated C10:2 carnitine can be detected in plasma. Later on, epilepsy, cerebellar ataxia, renal tubular acidosis, severe encephalopathy, dystonia, spastic quadriplegia and other complications may develop.

Most common symptoms of PROGRESSIVE ENCEPHALOPATHY WITH LEUKODYSTROPHY DUE TO DECR DEFICIENCY

  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Microcephaly
  • Nystagmus
  • Failure to thrive

2,4-DIENOYL-COA REDUCTASE DEFICIENCY; DECRD

Description

DECR deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism resulting in mitochondrial dysfunction. Affected individuals have a severe encephalopathy with neurologic and metabolic dysfunction beginning in early infancy. Laboratory studies show decreased activity of the mitochondrial NADP(H)-dependent enzymes DECR1 (OMIM ) and AASS (OMIM ), resulting in increased C10:2-carnitine levels and hyperlysinemia (summary by Houten et al., 2014).

Most common symptoms of 2,4-DIENOYL-COA REDUCTASE DEFICIENCY; DECRD

  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Microcephaly
  • Nystagmus
