Abetalipoproteinaemia in adults: role of vitamin therapy.

abstract：:Until recently, there have not been any confirmed reports of beta-mannosidase deficiency in man. We have now analysed urine from two patients with confirmed beta-mannosidase deficiency and have found Man-beta(1-4)GlcNAc concentrations of 65 and 73 mg/mmol creatinine. These levels are at least 12 times higher than thos...
