Mucopolysaccharides

Mucopolysaccharides yo se chenn long nan molekil sik ke yo jwenn nan tout kò a, souvan nan larim ak nan likid alantou jwenti yo. Yo pi souvan rele glycosaminoglycans.

Lè kò a pa ka kraze mucopolysaccharides, yon kondisyon ki rele mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) rive. MPS refere a yon gwoup eritye maladi metabolis. Moun ki gen MPS pa gen okenn, oswa ase, nan yon sibstans (anzim) ki nesesè yo kraze chenn yo molekil sik.

Fòm MPS yo enkli:

• MPS I (sendwòm Hurler; sendwòm Hurler-Scheie; sendwòm Scheie)
• MPS II (sendwòm Hunter)
• MPS III (sendwòm Sanfilippo)
• MPS IV (sendwòm Morquio)
