Chinese name
Congenital metabolic abnormalities
Foreign name
inborn error of metabolism
Symptom
Normal response is suppressed
Classification
Four
Representative congenital metabolic abnormalities show various harmful symptoms through the following mechanisms. (1) The normal response is suppressed, thereby causing deficiency or deficiency of necessary metabolites. (Such as systemic albinism, adrenal syndrome, goiter syndrome); (2) Metabolites accumulated in the previous stage of the suppressed response cause harmful effects (such as glycogen accumulation, phenylketonuria, Wilson (3) On the contrary, the response is promoted, resulting in overproduction of metabolites (such as acute intermittent hepatic porphyria).
