Differential diagnostics of lysosomal storage disorders using oxysterol assay

Abstract

Lipidoses is a group of inherited lysosomal diseases, characterized by accumulation of complex lipids in the tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the levels of oxysterols: cholestan-3b,5a,6b-triol (C-triol) and 7-ketocholesterol (7-KC) at four lysosomal diseases from the lipidoses group and in heterozygous carriers of Niemann-Pick (NP) type C and Niemann-Pick type A/B diseases. Increased levels of cholestan-3b,5a,6b-triol were found at NP-C, NP-A/B, and deficiency of lysosomal acid lipase (LAL-D). The level of C-triol was not increased in Gousher’s syndrome patients. An increased average concentration of cholestan-3b,5a,6b-triol was also revealed in heterozygous carriers of Niemann-Pick type C disease. A diagnostically significant cholestan-3b,5a,6b-triol/7-ketocholesterol ratio was proposed that can improve laboratory differential diagnostics of these diseases. The oxysterol assay can be used as a biochemical technique for selective screening of the risk groups for these diseases.
