Amador boy gets 2nd blood cell transplant
By Cynthia Hubert Bee Staff Writer Doctors at Duke University Medical Center in North Carolina on Friday performed a second umbilical cord blood transplant on little Tommy Bennett, the youngest of three Amador County siblings who suffer from a fatal genetic condition known as Sanfilippo syndrome. Tommy, 3, received an infusion of cells from an anonymous infant girl in a procedure that took about 35 minutes, said his mother, Alicia Bennett. "Everything went great," she said from Durham shortly afterward. "He slept through the whole thing."

Description

Mucopolysaccharides are long chains of sugar molecules that are essential for building the bones, cartilage, skin, tendons, and other tissues in the body. Normally, the human body continuously breaks down and builds mucopolysaccharides. Another name for mucopolysaccharides is glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). There are many different types of GAGs and specific GAGs are unable to be broken down in each of the MPS conditions. There are several enzymes involved in breaking down each GAG and a deficiency or absence of any of the essential enzymes can cause the GAG to not be broken down completely and result in its accumulation in the tissues and organs in the body. In some MPS conditions, in addition to the GAG being stored in the body, some of the incompletely broken down GAGs can leave the body via the urine. When too much GAG is stored, organs and tissues can be damaged or not function properly. Genetic profile Except for MPS II, the MPS conditions are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. MPS conditions occur when both of an individual's genes that produce the specific enzyme contain a mutation, causing them to not work properly. When both genes do not work properly, either none or a reduced amount of the enzyme is produced. An individual with an autosomal recessive condition inherits one of those non-working genes from each parent. These parents are called "carriers" of the condition. When two people are known carriers for an autosomal recessive condition, they have a 25% chance with each pregnancy to have a child affected with the disease. Some individuals with MPS do have children of their own. Children of parents who have an autosomal recessive condition are all carriers of that condition. These children are not at risk to develop the condition unless the other parent is a carrier or affected with the same autosomal recessive condition.

Which diseases are classified as Mucopolysaccharide Diseases?
Definition ^top^
Mucopolysaccharides are long molecular chains of sugar. They are used by the body in the building of connective tissues. The word "Mucopolysaccharide" can be broken down as follows:
"muco" refers to the thick jelly-like consistency of the molecules
"poly" means many
"saccharide" is a general term for a sugar molecule
What are Mucopolysaccharide diseases? ^top^
These rare metabolic diseases are reffered to as MPS I-VII or more commonly by the name of the doctor who first described the condition. These commonly include:-
Hurler
Scheie
Hunter Sanfilippo Morquio Maroteaux Lamy Sly Included also are the Mucolipidoses, other 'storage diseases' and the following conditions which are similar to Mucopolysaccharide:-

Sanfilippo, 20th century, American paediatrician), a group of diseases (types A, B, C and D) that constitute type III mucopolysaccharidosis . In all of these disorders a deficiency of lysosomal enzymes involved in the degradation of heparan sulfate is present. Among the features of this syndrome are limitation of joint motion, hepatosplenomegaly and a mild gibbus deformity

th Annual Meeting DOG 2000 P 693 Mucopolysaccharidosis type MPS III-A (Sanfilippo-Syndrome) clinical and histopathological findings in a case with typical ocular manifestation C.-A. Lackerbauer, G. Rudolph, K.-P. Boergen, A. Kampik Backround: Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type III-A represents a rare, autosomal-recessive inherited, metabolic disease with lysosomal storage characteristics. Only few proven cases with nearly all systemic changes and typical ocular manifestation have been described. Methods: The ophthalmological and systemic findings of an 13-year old male patient suffering from MPS type III-A will be pesented. The diagnosis is confirmed by slit-lamp examination, perimetric and electrophysiological findings as well as radiological and biochemical analysis and electron microscopy of fibroblast cells. Results: With a reduced intelligence clumsy facial changes and behavioural disorders like disorders of speech development, weakness of concentration and sleep disorders are most impressive. The X-ray examination presents sceletal changes like dysostosis multiplex. An atrophia of the optical nerve and circular retinal pigmentary degeneration in the 50° area exist on both eyes. In the Goldmann perimetric examination (III ) a concentric visual field (30°) is seen on both sides. The best visual acuity is 1/20. Amplitudes in the scotopic and photopic ERG are reduced up to 85%. The CPC test of the 24-hour urin was 156,6 Units/gCrea (norm: 0-140) and hexuronacid (54,5mg/gCrea) is 3,5 times normal (norm:9,6-14,8). Fibroblasts of the dermis demonstrate normal activity of
