Lysosomal Disorders, Six-Enzyme Panel, Leukocytes

Clinical Use

Use

This test is used for the diagnosis of lysosomal disorders such as Fabry (in male patients), Gaucher, Krabbe, mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I), acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (Niemann-Pick types A and B), and Pompe disease (glycogen storage disorder type II). It is particularly useful for screening individuals with positive newborn screen results or clinical signs indicative of these conditions. An enzyme deficiency detected by this panel requires further biochemical or molecular testing to confirm a diagnosis.

Special Instructions

Not provided.

Limitations

Values below the reference ranges are consistent with a diagnosis of lysosomal disorders. Careful interpretation is required as individuals with pseudodeficiency alleles can show reduced enzyme activity with this assay. Carrier status cannot be reliably detected. Enzyme levels may be normal in individuals receiving enzyme replacement therapy or those who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplant.
