• The following year, researchers reported a familial incidence of the disorder in several family members, postulating that the defect was a deficiency of hepatic fructose 1-aldolase. (medscape.com)
  • Thus, in an infant who is homozygous for fructose 1-aldolase deficiency, fructose ingestion triggers a cascade of biochemical events that result in severe clinical disease. (medscape.com)
  • This condition is important to distinguish clearly from genetic fructose 1-phosphate aldolase deficiency, although results of breath hydrogen testing are controversial in diagnosis. (medscape.com)

  • The first case of aldolase A deficiency was reported in 1973 by Beutler et al. (biomedcentral.com)
  • The proband, was a boy aged 14-years when the diagnosis of aldolase deficiency was established. (biomedcentral.com)
  • The rapid early progress in the understanding of this disorder may have occurred because of the fairly dramatic and difficult-to-miss symptoms associated with fructose ingestion. (medscape.com)
  • After ingestion, fructose is converted to fructose-1-phosphate in the liver by fructokinase. (wikipedia.org)
  • The cause of severe hepatic dysfunction remains unknown but may be a manifestation of focal cytoplasmic degeneration and cellular fructose toxicity. (medscape.com)
  • An inborn defect of hepatic fructose-1-phosphate splitting aldolase. (medscape.com)
  • Three aldolase isozymes (A, B, and C) are known encoded by 65 different genes. (biomedcentral.com)
  • The overlap of gastrointestinal symptoms, such as severe abdominal pain and diarrhea combined with poor growth in young children, has led to reports of a condition known as "fructose intolerance" in association with intestinal fructose malabsorption. (medscape.com)
  • It has been postulated that fructose malabsorption may be a consequence of abnormalities in the intestinal GLUT5 transporter, although the results of molecular investigations are inconsistent. (medscape.com)
  • Molecular analysis of the fructose transporter gene(GLUT5) in isolated fructose malabsorption. (medscape.com)
  • If fructose is ingested, the enzymatic block at aldolase B causes an accumulation of fructose-1-phosphate which, over time, results in the death of liver cells. (wikipedia.org)
  • Affected individuals are asymptomatic and healthy, provided they do not ingest foods containing fructose or any of its common precursors, sucrose and sorbitol. (wikipedia.org)
  • In the past, infants often became symptomatic when they were introduced to formulas that were sweetened with fructose or sucrose. (wikipedia.org)
  • Once identified, parents of infants who carry mutant aldolase B alleles leading to HFI, or older individuals who have clinical histories compatible with HFI can be identified and counselled with regard to preventive therapy: dietary exclusion of foods containing fructose, sucrose, or sorbitol. (wikipedia.org)
  • In normal cellular conditions, the primary enzymatic activity of aldolase B is to cleave fructose diphosphate (FDP), which forms rather than condenses the triose phosphate compounds. (medscape.com)
  • Reduced cleavage of F-1-P leads to its cellular accumulation and fructokinase inhibition, causing free fructose accumulation in the blood. (medscape.com)
  • Thus, homozygous neonates remain clinically well until confronted with dietary sources of fructose. (medscape.com)
  • When patients are diagnosed with HFI, a dietary history will often reveal an aversion to fruit and other foods that contain large amounts of fructose. (wikipedia.org)
  • Because of the ease of therapy (dietary exclusion of fructose), HFI can be effectively managed if properly diagnosed. (wikipedia.org)
  • Stable patients without acute intoxication events are treated by careful dietary planning that avoids fructose and its metabolic precursors. (wikipedia.org)
  • If possible, individuals who suspect they might have HFI should avoid testing via fructose challenge as the results are non-conclusive for individuals with HFI, and even if the diagnostic administration of fructose is properly controlled, profound hypoglycemia and its sequelae can threaten the patient's well-being.
