Defining inborn errors of metabolismBroad definition: Any defect related to the inappropriate metabolism of substrates essential for an organism’s survival
1. Defects in energy metabolism
2. Defects in protein synthesis or catabolism leading to intoxication with toxic substrates and/or absence of essential metabolic substrates
3. Synthetic defects – inability to produce an essential structural substrate
4. Defects in transport of essential components – cystic fibrosis, lysinuric protein deficiency
4. Defects in detoxifying specific substances
5. Generalized global tissue dysfunction (mitochondria)

Inborn errors of metabolism:General points
Incidence in heterogeneous population 1:750-1000 However, incidence higher if we include
hyperlipoproteinemias Heterozygote familial hypercholesterolemia has
an incidence of 1:500 Much more common in inbred populations and
consanguineous couples Signs and symptoms of metabolic disease are
usually non-specific Can present at all ages Underdiagnosis of metabolic diseases but improving
with new genetic techniques and improved mass screening

Mortality related to metabolic diseases
120 children aged 0-14 y died in a ten year period of inborn errors of metabolismThis was 3.5% of total child mortality and 9.5% of non-acquired (genetic) mortality

Diagnosing metabolic disease
![Page 8: Inborn errors of Metabolism Approach to Diagnosis and management.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649ce05503460f949aa35b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Approach to diagnosing metabolic disease Genetic testing for specific at risk
groups Prevention
Screening approach Testing entire population using relatively
inexpensive (price/unit) techniques High throughput (180,000 samples/yr/IL)
Clinical, biochemical, and molecular analysis of symptomatic patients
![Page 9: Inborn errors of Metabolism Approach to Diagnosis and management.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649ce05503460f949aa35b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Populations at risk
Specific population groups are at greater risk for a disease Founder effect Inbreeding
Prevention Premarital testing Prenatal testing Preimplantation genetic diagnosis
![Page 10: Inborn errors of Metabolism Approach to Diagnosis and management.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649ce05503460f949aa35b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Basis for newborn screening
Cost-effective Easy/inexpensive method for detecting IEM
High throughput methods Rapid turnaround High sensitivity (detect most cases) High specificity (low false positive rate) Effective notification system Possibility for intervention Minimal harm to patient
![Page 11: Inborn errors of Metabolism Approach to Diagnosis and management.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649ce05503460f949aa35b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Newborn screening First introduced for PKU (Guthrie) Ames test Extended to several other diseases
including galactosemia, hypothyroidism, sickle cell, thallasemia, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and homocystinuria
More countries and states including Israel are now using tandem mass spectrometry for more extensive evaluation

Early methods for screening for inborn errors of
metabolism
Guthrie testPlace blood drop on agar plate
containing B. subtilis and an inhibitor B-2-thienylalanine
High levels of phenylalanine in blood spot overcome inhibition and there is growth
Ames testPaper impregnated with ferric chloride which reacts with phenylalanine

Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS)

Approximately .3/1000 detection rate

Phenylketonuria
Phenylalanine hydroxylase
![Page 22: Inborn errors of Metabolism Approach to Diagnosis and management.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649ce05503460f949aa35b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Phenylketonuria In 1934, Folling discovered that children with
mental retardation had high levels of phenylalanine in blood
Classic: deficiency in phenylalanine hydroxylase Abnormalities in tone, myoclonic seizures,
mental retardation, disorders of pigmentation Incidence: 1;10,000-15,000, Turkey: <1:3000 TX: Dietary – reduction in phenylalanine,
provision of tyrosine

CASE STUDY: Short chain acyl dehydrogenase (SCAD)
deficiency Associated with CNS disease Question of whether this gene should be screened
for US vs. Europe
High prevalence of 319 C>T mutation among Ashkenazic Jews 1:15 carrier rate, 1:900 homozygotes Should be 2700 cases in Israel but only a handful of
symptomatic individuals What type of intervention?

Genetic analysis
Mutational analysis When specific defect is known
Reverse genetics Arrays, chips, genomic scanning, SNPs,
Cost effective Excellent coverage Does not always identify correct genetic defect or sole
defect
