Description

Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is an enzyme that hydrolyzes cholesterol esters and triglycerides. Decreased levels of LAL leads to two autosomal recessive disorders known as Wolman disease (WD) and Cholesteryl Ester Storage Disease (CESD). Complete loss of the enzyme causes WD in infants who present with vomiting, diarrhea, poor weight gain and hepatomegaly subsequently leading to death. Partial loss of LAL causes CESD with variable symptoms ranging from asymptomatic to gastrointestinal symptoms, hepatomegaly, elevated transaminases and dyslipidemia.
