Resumen: La enfermedad de Gaucher (GD) es el trastorno de almacenamiento lisosomal que se caracteriza por la deficiencia en la actividad enzimática de la β-glucosidasa (BGLU), lo que produce la acumulación de glucosilceramida en las células. Su diagnóstico se orienta a la valoración de la enzima en los leucocitos afectados. Se han realizado estudios en DBS para la actividad de BGLU en el seguimiento de poblaciones de alto riesgo; sin embargo, presentan interferencias relacionadas a leucopenias severas o expresión aumentada de la isoforma neutra de la enzima BGLU, molécula no relacionada con GD. El objetivo de este estudio fue la estandarización de un método de tamizaje en DBS (punch: 5 mm) con el uso de 4-metilumbeliferil-β-D-glucósido y conduritol-β-epóxido. Se analizaron muestras de DBS de 395 individuos con sospecha clínica (población de alto riesgo o AR), 151 controles y 16 pacientes afectados, usando la elución de un corte de 5 mm (≈10 μl de sangre) en 300 μl de Tritón X-100/(0,5 %). Como resultados, se obtuvieron los rangos, AR: 0,84-26,92 nmol/ml/h, controles: 3,56- 8,92 nmol/ml/h (M = 5,56, DS = 1,15) y pacientes confirmados con GD: 0,82- 2,88 nmol/ml/h (M = 1,64, DS = 0,57). El punto de corte entre deficientes y controles fue 3,22 nmol/ml/h, obtenido a partir de análisis ROC (99 % confianza, 100 % sensibilidad y 100 % especificidad). El protocolo permitió evidenciar la deficiencia en todos los casos de GD, confirmados mediante el análisis en paralelo de la enzima en aislamiento leucocitario. Se recomienda el uso del CBE y realizar la elución del corte a 5 mm, a fin de llevar a cabo la valoración enzimática con un volumen mayor aproximado de sangre y en ausencia de la actividad generada por la isoforma neutra. Abstract: Gaucher disease (GD) is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by a deficiency in the enzymatic activity of β-glucosidase (BGLU), resulting in the accumulation of glucosylceramide in cells. Its diagnosis is aimed at checking the enzyme in the affected leukocytes. Studies have been conducted on dried blood spots (DBS) for bglu activity to monitor high-risk populations; however, they exhibit interferences related to severe leukopenias or increased expression of the neutral bglu isoform, a molecule not related to gd. This study intends to standardize a screening method on dbs (punch: 5 mm) using 4-methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucoside and conduritol-β-epoxide (CβE). dbs samples from 395 individuals clinically suspected of gd (high-risk or hr population), 151 controls, and 16 affected patients were analyzed using the elution of 5 mm punches (≈10 μl of blood) in 300 μl of Triton X-100/ (0.5 %). As a result, the following ranges were obtained; HR: 0.84-26.92 nmol/ml/h, controls: 3.56-8.92 nmol/ml/h (M = 5.56, SD = 1.15), and patients with confirmed GD: 0.82-2.88 nmol/ml/h (M = 1.64, SD = 0.57). The cut-off point between patients with gd and controls was 3.22 nmol/ml/h, obtained from roc analysis (99 % ci, 100 % sensitivity, and 100 % specificity). The protocol revealed a deficiency in all gd cases, confirmed by parallel bglu analysis in isolated leukocytes. The use of cbe and the elution of 5 mm punches are recommended for enzymatic evaluation with a higher approximate volume of blood and in the absence of neutral isoform activity. Resumo: A doença de Gaucher (GD) é o trastorno de armazenamento lisosomal caracterizado pela deficiência na atividade enzimática da β-glucosidase (BGLU), o que produz a acumulação de glucossilceramida nas células. Seu diagnóstico está orientado à avaliação da enzima nos leucócitos afetados. Foram realizados estudos em dbs para a atividade de BGLU no seguimento de populações de alto risco; contudo, são apresentadas interferências relacionadas a leucopenias graves ou a expressão aumentada da isoforma neutra da enzima BGLU, molécula não relacionada com GD. O objetivo deste estudo foi a padronização de um método de tamisação emdbs (punch: 5 mm) com o uso de 4-metilumbeliferil-β-D- glicosídeo e conduritol-β-epóxido. Foram analisadas amostras de dbs de 395 indivíduos com suspeita clínica (população de alto risco ou ar), 151 controles e 16 pacientes afetados, usando a eluição de um corte de 5 mm (≈10 μl de sangue) em 300 μl de Tritão X-100/(0,5 %). Como resultados, foram obtidos os intervalos: AR: 0,84-26,92 nmol/ml/h, controles: 3,56-8,92 nmol/ml/h (M = 5,56, DS = 1,15) e pacientes confirmados com GD: 0,82- 2,88 nmol/ml/h (M = 1,64, DS = 0,57). O ponto de corte entre deficientes e controles foi 3,22 nmol/ml/h, obtido a partir de análise ROC (99 % confiança, 100 % sensibilidade e 100 % especificidade). O protocolo permitiu evidenciar a deficiência em todos os casos de GD, confirmados mediante a análise em paralelo da enzima em isolamento leucocitário. É recomendado o uso do cbe e a realização da eluição do corte a 5 mm, a fim de implementar a avaliação enzimática com um volume maior aproximado de sangue e em ausência da atividade gerada pela isoforma neutra.

La enfermedad de Gaucher es un trastorno metabólico autosómico recesivo crónico y progresivo que se caracteriza por depósito lisosomal con deficiencia de la enzima glucocerebrosidasa ácida produciendo causando daño celular y disfunción orgánica; se asocia a enfermedades neoplásicas hematológicas; sin embargo, su asociación con linfomas es rara. El linfoma hidroa vacciniforme like es una enfermedad rara per se pero afecta en más casos a niños y adolescentes; está caracterizado por lesiones vesiculares cutáneas, adenopatías y visceromegalias. Presentamos el caso de una niña proveniente de una comunidad andina de Cusco de 12 años que presentó durante siete años vesículas costrosas, fiebre, edema facial con ulcera palpebral, ganglios palpables, hepatoesplenomegalia, acompañado de pancitopenia. Se realizó un estudio enzimático y genético observándose deficiencia de β-glucosidasa y del gen GBA; en la biopsia de piel se encontró un infiltrado linfoide dérmico con pleomorfismo nuclear compatible con linfoma de células T tipo hidroavacciniforme like, posteriormente la paciente presentó leve mejoría con el tratamiento de reemplazo enzimático pero falleció debido al shock hipovolémico tras dos episodios de hemorragia digestiva baja. Gaucher disease is a chronic and progressive autosomal recessive metabolic disorder that is characterized by lysosome depots with deficiency of acid glucocerebrosidase enzyme, which leads to cell damage and organic dysfunction. This condition is associated with some hematological malignancies; however, its association with lymphomas is rare. Hydroa vacciniform-like lymphoma is a rare condition per se, but it is becoming increasingly frequent in children and adolescents. It is characterized by the presence of cutaneous vesicular lesions, adenopathy, and visceromegaly. We present the case of a 12-year old girl from an Andean community in Cusco who presented with crusting vesicles, fever, face edema with eyelid ulceration, palpable lymph nodes, and hepatosplenomegaly, accompanied by pancytopenia. An enzymatic and genetic study was carried out, and both β-glucosidase deficiency and GBA gene deficiency were found. Skin biopsies revealed a dermal lymphoid infiltrate with nuclear pleomorphism compatible with hydroa vacciniform like T-cell lymphoma. Subsequently, the patient developed slight improvement with the enzyme replacement therapy, but she died because of hypovolemic shock after two episodes of low gastrointestinal hemorrhage.

Gaucher disease (EG) is a heterogeneous sphingolipidoses due to mutations in the gene that encodes the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase responsive for hydrolysis of glucosylceramide deposit with this in mononuclear phagocytes. There are 3 types of disease: I form of adult or not neuronopathic; II acute neuronopathic or infantile form;III neuronophatic subacute or juvenile form (Subtypes a, b, c). Since 1991 enzyme replacement therapy has decreased mobility and mortality. Presentation type I respond well not the answer type II - response to type III is incomplete without evidence there is even better neurological injury may be used to attenuate the visceral injury and bone. We report the case of patient who presents with EG type III and treated with enzyme replacement moderately satisfactory answer to the present time especially in the area neurologist.

Introduction: Gaucher disease (GD) is a rare genetic recessive autosomical lysosomal storage disease, characterized by deficient activity of glucocerebrosidase. Treatment is available, but a lack of legislation for it in Mexico limits its use. This report describes the clinical features of a Mexican sample of affected subjects. Material and Methods: Sixty-three confirmed patients registered in the Mexican Gaucher Association from 1983-2006 were studied. Age, sex, type, mutation, manifestations, and treatment were evaluated. There were 32 males (50.7%) and 31 females (49.3%); mean age was 21.8 years. Results: Type 1 GD affected 51 (80.9%) and type 3 affected 12 (19.1%) patients. Average age at diagnosis was 12.4 years. Thirty-seven patients were N370S heterozygotes and 6 patients were N370S homozygotes. L444P was found in 14 heterozygote patients and in 6 L444P homozygotes. No L444P homozygote was reported in patients with type 1 GD, and no N370S was observed in patients with type 3 GD. Clinical manifestations were reported in the following percentages of patients: hepatomegaly, 19.04%; hepatosplenomegaly, 80.9%; hematological disorder 58.7%; bone disorder, 100%; neurological disorder, 19.04%. Only 40 (63.4) were under enzyme replacement therapy. Discussion: This is the first complete report of patients with GD in Mexico. Rare disease and orphan drug legislation is needed in Mexico.

Introducción: La enfermedad de Gaucher es un trastorno metabólico por deficiencia o ausencia de enzima β-Glucosidasa Ácida. El diagnóstico se sospecha clínicamente, pero requiere confirmación mediante medición, en leucocitos (estándar de oro) o en sangre seca sobre papel de filtro, de la actividad de la enzima β-Glucosidasa Ácida. Objetivo: Evaluar la validez de la medición de la actividad de la enzima β-Glucosidasa Ácida en sangre seca en papel de filtro, comparada con el estándar de oro, para el diagnóstico de enfermedad de Gaucher en pacientes con sospecha clínica. Metodología: Se hizo una revisión sistemática de literatura. Se construyó y validó una pregunta PICO. Se usó una estrategia de búsqueda genérica con base en los términos clave (Gaucher Disease y Dried Blood Spot Analysis). Dos evaluadores independientes revisaron, evaluaron la calidad y extrajeron la información de los artículos. Resultados: Descartando los duplicados, se obtuvieron 47 artículos. Se evaluaron los textos completos de cuatro, y tres de ellos fueron excluidos al aplicar criterios de inclusión y exclusión. El artículo incluido tuvo una calidad excelente y mostró que la actividad enzimática de la glucocerebrosidasa en sangre seca tuvo sensibilidad de 82.3% y especificidad de 94.0% con un punto de corte de 0.0-2.75 y sensibilidad de 88.2% y especificidad de 88.5% con un punto de corte de 0.0-4.4. Conclusiones: La medición enzimática de la β-glucosidasa ácida en sangre seca es una excelente prueba para diagnóstico inicial de enfermedad de Gaucher. Sin embargo, no es una prueba concluyente.

Validez de la prueba de actividad enzimática de la glucocerebrosidasa para el diagnóstico de enfermedad de Gaucher, revisión sistemática. MedUNAB 2017; 20(2): 201-206]. Introduction: The Gaucher disease is a metabolic disorder due to deficiency or absence of acid β-glucosidase enzyme. The diagnosis is clinically suspected, but requires confirmation by measuring the activity of acid β-glucosidase enzyme in leukocytes (gold standard) or in dried blood on filter paper. Objective: To assess the validity of the measurement of acid β-glucosidase enzyme activity in dried blood on filter paper compared to the standard of gold, for the diagnosis of Gaucher disease in patients with clinical suspicion. Methodology: A systematic review of literature was carried out. A PICO question was constructed and validated. A generic search strategy was used based on the key terms (Gaucher Disease and Dried Blood Spot Analysis). Two independent evaluators reviewed and assessed the quality, and extracted information from the articles. Results: Discarding the duplicates, 47 articles were obtained. Four complete texts were evaluated, and three of them were excluded when applying inclusion and exclusion criteria. The article that was included had an excellent quality and showed that the enzymatic activity of glucocerebrosidase in dried blood had a sensitivity of 82.3%, a specificity of 94.0% with a cut-off of 0.0-2.75, a sensitivity of 88.2% and specificity of 88.5% with a cut-off point of 0.0-4.4. Conclusions: The enzymatic measurement of acid β-glucosidase in dried blood is an excellent test for an initial diagnosis of Gaucher disease; however, it is not a conclusive proof.

Gaucher disease (GD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the reduced or absent activity of glucocerebrosidase. The disease is split into three types. Type 3, or chronic neuronopathic GD, manifests with heterogeneous clinical presentations. Skeletal manifestations of GD can include abnormal bone remodeling resulting in the characteristic Erlenmeyer flask deformities, painful bone crises, osteopenia, and an increased frequency of fractures. Osteolytic lesions can also occur, but are rare, and tend to be large expanding intramedullary lesions with cortical thinning. We present two adolescent patients with type 3 GD who developed bilateral symmetrical cortical osteolytic lesions. The lesions in both cases demonstrate predominant cortical scalloping with fairly indolent growth. Neither patient manifests some of the more common bony manifestations of GD; the Erlenmeyer flask deformity, bone crises, or osteonecrosis. These atypical and unique skeletal findings in two unrelated probands with type 3 GD further expands the extent of phenotypic variation encountered in this single gene disorder.

Las enfermedades de depósito lisosomal son un grupo de desórdenes hereditarios ocasionados por errores innatos del metabolismo con una fisiopatología y manifestaciones clínicas heterogéneas. De todas estas enfermedades la más común es la enfermedad de Gaucher (EG), que consiste en un desorden multisistémico que resulta de mutaciones autosómicas recesivas en el gen codificador de la enzima glucocerebrosidasa (GBA). Hasta el momento han sido identificados más de 300 alelos mutantes. Existe en estos casos una deficiencia en la actividad de la GBA, que lleva al acúmulo de su principal sustrato, el glucocerebrósido, dentro de los lisosomas de los macrófagos, produciendo las características células de depósito llamadas células de Gaucher, con acúmulo de estas células en una gran variedad de tejidos, especialmente el hígado, el bazo, médula ósea, tejido óseo, pulmones y sistema nervioso central. Los pacientes con EG no neuronopática, tipo I, pueden presentar hepatomegalia, esplenomegalia, trombocitopenia, tendencia al sangrado, anemia, patología ósea, retardo en el crecimiento y disminución de la calidad de vida. La terapia de remplazo enzimático (TRE) con imiglucerasa revierte o aminora estos hallazgos. En este estudio se reporta la casuística del Tolima, que comprende cuatro pacientes con EG tipo I, con manifestaciones moderadas de la enfermedad; tres niños y un adulto; dos hombres y dos mujeres; entre los 4 y 35 años de edad. Todos tenían esplenomegalia, anemia, trombocitopenia y aumento leve de transaminasas. Tres pacientes han sido manejados con TRE presentando mejoría hematológica, bioquímica y clínica. The lysosomal storage disorders are monogenic inborn errors of metabolism with heterogeneous pathophysiology and clinical manifestations. Gaucher's disease (GD) is the most common lysosomal storage disorder and is a multi-system condition that results from autosomal recessive mutations in the gene encoding glucocerebroside. More than 300 discrete mutant alleles have been identified. A deficiency of glucocerebroside (GBA) activity leads to the accumulation of its major substrate, glucocerebroside, within the lysosomes of macrophages, resulting in characteristic storage cells, commonly known as Gaucher cells, in a variety of tissues but mainly in the liver, spleen, bone marrow, bones, lungs and central nervous system. Patients with non-neuronopathic (type 1) GD may suffer from hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, thrombocytopenia, tendency to bleed, anemia, hypermetabolism, skeletal pathologies; growth retardation, pulmonary disease and poor quality of life. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with immiglucerase reverses or ameliorates many of the manifestations of type 1 Gaucher´s disease. Four GD type I patients, three children and one adult, two male and two female, ages 4-35 y, with moderate to life-threatening manifestations are the Tolima casuistic and are reported in this study. All patients had splenomegaly, anemia and mild to moderate thrombocytopenia and transaminases elevated. Three patients had been treated with ERT and showed hematological, biochemical and clinical improvements.

La enfermedad de Gaucher es la enfermedad hereditaria de depósito lisosomal más frecuente. Se caracteriza por una deficiencia de la enzima glucocerebrosidasa que conduce a la acumulación de substrato en el interior de los lisosomas de los macrófagos. Se clasifica en tres tipos según exista afectación de sistema nervioso central (tipos 2 y 3) o no (tipo 1). Es una patología multisistémica y en la mayoría de pacientes se aprecia hepatoesplenomegalia, anemia y trombopenia. La afectación esquelética también es importante y a menudo constituye el aspecto más discapacitante. Presentamos dos casos de enfermedad de Gaucher con manifestaciones óseas y realizamos una revisión de la literatura.
