Norum-Krankheit

Die Norum-Krankheit ist eine autosomal rezessive Erkrankung die auf Mutationen des LCAT-Gens beruht. Die Erkrankung ist durch Hornhauttrübung, normochrome hämolytische Anämie und Schaumzellen im Knochenmark charakterisiert. Zu den typischen Laborbefunden zählen rhöhte Triglycerid-, Phospholipid und Cholestrolspiegel. Auch eine Proteinurie kann gefunden werden.

Pathogenese

Biochemisch ist diese Erkrankung durch einen kompletten Ausfall des Enzyms Lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) gekennzeichnet. Das betrifft sowohl die Funktion an den kleinen HDL-Partikeln, wo das ApoA1 der den Enzymaktivator bildet, wie auch an den großen ApoB-enthaltenden Lipoproteinen.

Management

Die Therapie besteht in einer cholestrinarmen Diät und ggf. Bluttransfusionen zum Ausgleich der Anämie. Eine kausale Therapie ist mit der Lebertransplantation möglich.
