In the following list you will find some of the most common rare diseases related to Ataxia and Anorexia that can help you solving undiagnosed cases.
Hypermethioninemia due to methionine adenosyltransferase deficiency is a very rare metabolic disorder resulting in isolated hepatic hypermethioninemia that is usually benign due to partial inactivation of enzyme activity. Rarely patients have been found to have an odd odor or neurological disorders such as brain demyelination.
BRAIN DEMYELINATION DUE TO METHIONINE ADENOSYLTRANSFERASE DEFICIENCY Is also known as mat deficiency|mat i/iii deficiency|hypermethioninemia, isolated persistent|methionine adenosyltransferase deficiency

Hodgkin lymphoma tumors consist of a minority of malignant cells, known as 'Reed-Sternberg' (RS) cells, mixed with reactive lymphocytes and other benign inflammatory cells. A defining feature of RS cells is the presence of 2 nuclei (summary by Salipante et al., 2009).

Combined methylmalonic aciduria (MMA) and homocystinuria is a genetically heterogeneous disorder of cobalamin (cbl; vitamin B12) metabolism. The defect causes decreased levels of the coenzymes adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl) and methylcobalamin (MeCbl), which results in decreased activity of the respective enzymes methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MUT ) and methyltetrahydrofolate:homocysteine methyltransferase, also known as methionine synthase (MTR ). Different forms of the disorder have been classified according to complementation groups of cells in vitro: cblC (MAHCC ), cblD, cblF (MAHCF ), and cblJ (MAHCJ ).Isolated methylmalonic acidurias have also been classified by complementation groups: MMA 'mut' (OMIM ), caused by mutation in the MUT gene on chromosome 6p21; MMA cblA (OMIM ), caused by mutation in the MMAA gene (OMIM ) on 4q31; and MMA cblB (OMIM ), caused by mutation in the MMAB gene (OMIM ) on 12q24. Another form of isolated MMA (OMIM ) can be caused by defect in the transcobalamin receptor (CD320 ).
METHYLCOBALAMIN DEFICIENCY TYPE CBLDV1 Is also known as methylmalonic acidemia, cblh type, formerly|functional methionine synthase deficiency type cbldv1|methylmalonic aciduria, cblh type, formerly|methylmalonic acidemia and homocystinuria, cbld type

The disease and the bacterium were discovered following an outbreak traced to a 1976 American Legion convention in Philadelphia. A number of risk factors for acquiring LD have been identified, including age, smoking, chronic lung disease, cancer, and immunosuppression (summary by Hawn et al., 2003).
