SUCLG1-related mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion syndrome is an inherited disorder that affects the early development of the brain. Signs and symptoms typically appear soon after birth. Most affected children develop severe brain dysfunction and muscle weakness (encephalomyopathy). Infants with SUCLG1-related mtDNA depletion syndrome often have weak muscle tone (hypotonia). They typically have difficulty eating and may require a feeding tube. Additional features may include liver abnormalities and thickening of the heart muscle (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy). In affected individuals, a substance called methylmalonic acid typically builds up in the blood and urine.
Descrizione
SUCLG1-related mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion syndrome is an inherited disorder that affects the early development of the brain. Signs and symptoms typically appear soon after birth. Most affected children develop severe brain dysfunction and muscle weakness (encephalomyopathy). Infants with SUCLG1-related mtDNA depletion syndrome often have weak muscle tone (hypotonia). They typically have difficulty eating and may require a feeding tube. Additional features may include liver abnormalities and thickening of the heart muscle (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy). In affected individuals, a substance called methylmalonic acid typically builds up in the blood and urine.
People with SUCLG1-related mtDNA depletion syndrome can have serious health complications, which result in a shortened lifespan. Individuals with SUCLG1-related mtDNA depletion syndrome typically do not survive past childhood.
Some infants with SUCLG1-related mtDNA depletion syndrome develop a toxic buildup of acids in the body in the first few days of life. This form of the disorder is called fatal infantile lactic acidosis. Infants with fatal infantile lactic acidosis typically only survive for a few days after birth.

Sindrome nefrosica
Sindrome nefrosica is a condition where the 'filters' in the renali become 'leaky' e large amounts of protein leak from the blood into the urine. The main symptom is fluid retention (oedema) which is mainly due to the low protein level in the blood. Various diseases can cause nephrotic syndrome, some more serious than others. Treatment and.

Sindrome del cri du chat
Sindrome del cri du chat è a chromosome problem caused by a missing piece of chromosome 5. The syndrome is called cri du chat (French for cry of the cat) because affected babies often have a high-pitched cry.

sindrome di Cushing
sindrome di Cushing è caused by too high a level of glucocorticoid in the body. This can be caused by taking steroid medication long-term (the common cause) or by the body making too much cortisol (the main glucocorticoid made by the body). There are various reasons why the body may produce too much cortisol, and complex tests may be needed to.
