Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by deficient activity of the enzyme arylsulfatase-A. Deficiency of this enzyme results in intralysosomal storage of sphingolipid cerebroside 3-sulfates (sulfatides), which are abundant in myelin and neurons. A pathological hallmark of MLD is demyelination and neurodegeneration, causing various and ultimately lethal neurological symptoms. Its frequency is estimated to be 1/40,000 live births. The disease encompasses three clinical subtypes: late infantile (40% of the patients with MLD), juvenile (40%), and adult (20%).   DOI: 10.3126/jnps.v31i2.4644 J Nep Paedtr Soc 2010;31(2):143-145
