Metabolic Disorders
Inborn Errors Of Metabolism
Inborn Errors Of Metabolism (IEM)
-A large group of hereditary biochemical
diseases.
-In autosomal dominant disorders, the structural abnormality
dominates over the chemical abnormality.
-Specific gene mutation cause abnormal
or missing proteins that lead to altered
function.
2
Pathophysiology

SINGLE GENE DEFECTS in synthesis or catabolism of proteins,
carbohydrates, or fats.

Defect in an ENZYME or TRANSPORT PROTEIN , which results in a
block in a metabolic pathway.

EFFECTS :
- toxic ACCUMULATION of substrates before the block,
- intermediates from ALTERNATIVE pathways
- defects in ENERGY production and utilization caused by a
deficiency of products beyond the BLOCK.

Every metabolic disease has several forms that vary in AGE OF ONSET ,
clinical severity and, often, MODE OF INHERITANCE.
Classification

Zellwegger’s (CerebroHepato-renal)
X-linked
Adrenoleukodystrophy
Metabolic Disorders
• Due to inherited reduced activities of proteins
involved in the synthesis, breakdown or transport of
amino acids, organic acids, fats, carbohydrates and
complex macromolecules.
• Most are autosomal recessive due to mutations that
result in reduced enzyme activity or reduced amount
of enzyme.
• Pathogenesis may include: accumulation of a toxic
intermediate, reduced amount of a necessary end
product or activation of an alternate pathway.

Metabolic Disorders
Features suggestive of metabolic disorder :
From history:
Parental history :
Consanguineous parents
Previous unexplained neonatal deaths
Particular ethnic group (in certain diseases)
8
Metabolic Disorders
Features suggestive of metabolic disorder :
Examination findings:
Organomegaly (e.g. hepatomegaly) in the absence of viral
infection.
Cardiac disease
Ocular involvement (e.g. cherry red spot)
Skin manifestations e.g. pigmentations.
Unusual odour. Due to change in the chemicals of the urine.
Non-specific neurological findings. In a non-meningitis child you
have to think of metabolic disorders.
Neonatal and Post Neonatal Presentation
Neonatal presentation
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Normal-appearing child at birth (some conditions are
associated with dysmorphic features)
poor feeding
lethargy
vomiting
seizures
coma
unusual odour
Hypoglycaemia is very dangerous, acidosis (in some
defects)
10
Neonatal and Post Neonatal Presentation
Post neonatal presentation
•
•
•
•
•
•
Encephalopathy without the presence of
infection.
Developmental regression
Reye syndrome ( damage of the brain and
liver eventually leading to
encephalopathy).
Motor deficits
Seizures
Intermittent episodes of vomiting, acidosis,
hypoglycaemia and/or coma triggered by
stress e.g. infections, surgery.
Newborn Screening
the earlier its detected the fewer the complications



PKU - in NICU even if not advanced to full feeds
Galactosemia
Hypothyroidism
Hemoglobinopathies
Biotinidase defic, CAH (21-OH’ase def),
Maple syrup urine disease ( MSUD )
- GUTHRIE TEST: it’s a cheap test that requires
only one drop of blood to check for multiple
metabolic disorders.
PROCEDURES FOR DIAGNOSIC CONFIRMATION
Non – Specific Tests:
Specific Tests:
•
•
Direct biochemical assays of
metabolites or their metabolic byproducts, or of an enzyme’s function.
•
DNA studies
•
Neuro-radiology
•
•
Blood glucose, ammonia,
bicarbonate and pH
Peripheral Blood smear – WBC or
bone marrow vacuolization , foam
cells or granules.
C.S.F. glycine , other amino acids
, lactate. Amino acids shouldn’t
be present in the CSF if its there it
indicates a metabolic disorder.
Bone marrow transplantation is a treatment of both inborn errors of
metabolism

They may come with flattened mid-face, indistinct philtrum, low
nasal bridge and single palmar crease.
Small chin is
called
micrognathia
Low-set ears: >1/3rd of the ears lower than the line connecting
the 2 pupils.
Low nasal bridge: common sign, which is also seen in Down.
MANAGEMENT OF IEM
Genetic:
Establish diagnosis.
Carrier testing.
Pedigree analysis, risk counseling.
Consideration of Prenatal diagnosis for pregnancies at
risk.
19
MANAGEMENT OF IEM
PSYCHOSOCIAL , EDUCATIONAL , FAMILIAL
 Family counseling and support.
 Education to promote increased
compliance with special form of therapy
such as Protein – restricted diet.
 Assessment of community resources
and support groups.
20
TREATMENT OF GENETIC DISEASES
•
Modify environment, e.g., diet, drugs
•
Avoid known environmental triggers
•
•
BMT
Surgical, correct or repair defect or organ transplantation
•
Modify or replace defective gene product, megadose vitamin
therapy or enzyme replacement
•
Replace defective gene
•
Correct altered DNA in defective gene
Galactosemia
22
:
Carbohydrates
Galactosemia
Enzyme deficiency:
Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase deficiency.
It is a rare autosomal recessive.
● Follows feeding with lactose containing (breast milk / formula)
● Patient feeds poorly , have vomiting, jaundice, hepatomegaly and
hepatic failure
● Chronic liver disease
● Cataracts
● Developmental delay develop if condition is untreated., if they
were given galactose free diet you will avoid the social and mental
damage but they might complain of dyslexia.
23
CYSTIC FIBROSIS
Cause : Loss of 3 DNA bases in a gene for the protein that transports Cl
ions so salt balance is upset. Causes .a build up of thick mucus in lungs
and digestive organs. It is diagnosed by sweat test: measuring the chloride
concentration in the sweat
AMINO ACID DISORDERS
Phenyl Ketonuria (PKU)
Phenylalanine
Phenylalanine

First Steps in Metabolic Therapy for IEM
• Reduce precursor substrate load
• Provide caloric support
• Provide fluid support
• Remove metabolites via dialysis
• Divert metabolites
• Supplement with cofactor(s)
Therapeutic Measures for IEM
• D/C oral intake temporarily
• Usually IVF’s with glucose to give 12-15
mg/kg/min glu and at least 60 kcal/kg to
prevent catabolism (may worsen pyruvate
dehydrogenase deficiency)
• Bicarb/citrate
Carnitine/glycine
• Na Benzoate/arginine/citrulline
• Dialysis--not exchange transfusion
• Vitamins--often given in cocktails after labs
drawn before dx is known
• Biotin, B6, B12, riboflavin, thiamine, folate
Important IEM Treatment supplements:
• Carnitine for elimination of Organic Acid through
creation of carnitine esters.
• Sodium Benzoate, phenylacetate and
phenylbutyrate for Hyperammonemia
elimination.
CARNITINE METABOLISM
• An essential nutrient found in highest concentration
in red meat.
• Primary function : Transport long-chain fatty acids
into mitochondria for oxidation.
• Carnitine supplementation in fatty acid oxidation
disorders and organic acidosis may augment
excretion of accumulated metabolites , but may not
prevent metabolic crises in such patients .
• Carnitine is an endogenous metabolite but can be
given as supplementations.
CARNITINE METABOLISM
• Primary defects of carnitine transport manifest as Reye syndrome ,
cardiomyopathy or skeletal myopathy with hypotonia
• Secondary carnitine deficiency is due to diet ( esp. I.V alimentation or
ketogenic diet ) , renal losses , drug therapy ( esp. valproic acid) and
other metabolic disorders ( esp. disorders of fatty acid oxidation and
organic acidemias )
• Prognosis depends on the cause of the carnitine abnormality.
• Free and esterified carnitine can be measured in blood.
• Oral or I.V. L-carnitine is used in carnitine deficiency or lnsufficiency in
doses of 25-100mg/kgm/day or higher.
