Rubin's Liver (3) Flashcards
“AR inherited defect in ATP mediated hepatocyte copper transport”
Wilson disease
What results from the defect in Wilson disease?
lack of Cu transport into bile and ack of Cu incorporation into ceruloplasmin
Symptoms of Wilson disease?
cirrhosis, neuro manifestations, Keyer- flesher rings in cornea
Does wilson disease increase the risk of liver cancer?
Yes
How does CFTR mutation lead to cirrhosis?
biliary obstruction–> biliary cirrhosis
“AR defect in serine protease inhibitor leading to hepatocytes with PAS droplets”
Alpha-1- antitrypsin deficiency
Most common genetic cause of liver disease?
Alpha-1- antitrypsin deficiency
Does Alpha-1- antitrypsin deficiency increase risk of cancer?
Yes!
“hepatocytes distended with glycogen, no fibrosis, hepatic adenomas in adolescence”
Type I glycogen storage disease
“inherited glycogen storage disease with mild hepatomegaly:
Type II, Pompe
“inherited glycogen storgage disease with severe hepatomegaly, and fibrosis that can progress to cirrhosis”
Type III, cori
“branching enzyme dificiecny that is associated by cirrhosis at a young age”
Type IV, Andersen
Which glycogen storage disease responds to dietary control?
Type I
“infants can not process milk, AR mutation, cataracts, jaundince, hepatosplenomegaly, cirrhosis”
Galactosemia
“AR deficiency of Fructose 1 phosphate aldolase leading to hepatomegaly, jaundice, and cirrhosis”
Hereditary fructose intolerance
“loss of FAH leadig to accumulation of succinyl acdetone and succinyl acetoacetate”
Tyrosinemia
