Intestinal Involvement in Metachromatic Leukodystrophy

open access: yes, 2011
Metachromatic leukodystrophy is a lysosomal storage disease caused by the deficiency of the enzyme arylsulfatase A. If arylsulfatase A is deficient, sulfatide accumulates. Functionally, this accumulation results in progressive neurological deterioration.
