Broader concept

Narrower concepts

Scope note

  • A group of inherited metabolic disorders characterized by the intralysosomal accumulation of sulfur-containing lipids (SULFATIDES), including SULFOGLYCOSPHINGOLIPIDS normally found in the MYELIN SHEATH of the brain. These disorders are caused by defective degradative enzymes leading to substrate accumulation (or storage).

History note

  • 2007; use LEUKODYSTROPHY, METACHROMATIC 1974-2006
