Newborn Screening for X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD): Biochemical, Molecular, and Clinical Characteristics of Other Genetic Conditions. [PDF]

open access: yesGenes (Basel)
The state of California (CA) added X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) to newborn screening (NBS) in 2016 via the measurement of C26:0-lysophosphatidylcholine (C26:0-LPC) in a two-tier fashion, followed by sequencing of the ABCD1 gene. This has resulted in the identification of individuals with genetic conditions beyond X-ALD that can also result in ...

Phosphatidylcholine with C26:0 moiety, a precursor of a diagnostic marker for X-ALD, is synthesized by LPLAT10/LPEAT2. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Lipid Res
X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) is a congenital metabolic disorder characterized mainly by inflammatory demyelination and adrenal insufficiency. Newborn screening using hexacosanoyl lysophosphatidylcholine (C26:0-LPC) in dried blood spots as a diagnostic marker can successfully identify potential patients with X-ALD and prevent disease onset. C26:

Identification of Two Novel Mutations of ABCD1 Gene in Pedigrees with X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy and Review of the Literature

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2022
Background. X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is an inherited peroxisomal metabolism disorder, resulting from the loss-of-function mutation of ATP-binding cassette protein subfamily D1 (ABCD1) gene.
