MeSH Heading: Fructose Intolerance
Tree Number(s): C16.320.565.202.251.271; C18.452.648.202.251.271
Unique ID: D005633
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D005633
Annotation: an inborn error of fructose metab; do not use /‌congen & do not coord with INFANT, NEWBORN, DISEASES
Scope Note: An autosomal recessive fructose metabolism disorder due to deficient fructose-1-phosphate aldolase (EC 2.1.2.13) activity, resulting in accumulation of fructose-1-phosphate. The accumulated fructose-1-phosphate inhibits glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis, causing severe hypoglycemia following ingestion of fructose. Prolonged fructose ingestion in infants leads ultimately to hepatic failure and death. Patients develop a strong distaste for sweet food, and avoid a chronic course of the disease by remaining on a fructose- and sucrose-free diet.
Entry Term(s): ALDOB Deficiency; Aldolase B Deficiency; Fructose Aldolase B Deficiency; Fructose Intolerance, Hereditary; Fructose-1,6-Biphosphate Aldolase Deficiency; Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate Aldolase B Deficiency; Fructose-1-Phosphate Aldolase Deficiency; Fructosemia; Hereditary Fructose Intolerance
