Plasmalogens participate in very-long-chain fatty acid-induced pathology.

Pedro Brites et al.

Brain : a journal of neurology, 132(Pt 2), 482-492 (2008-11-22)

Peroxisomes are organelles responsible for multiple metabolic pathways including, the biosynthesis of plasmalogens, a class of phospholipids, and the beta-oxidation of very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA). Lack of peroxisomes or dysfunction in any of their normal functions is the cellular basis

The prenatal diagnosis of adrenoleukodystrophy. Demonstration of increased hexacosanoic acid levels in cultured amniocytes and fetal adrenal gland.

H W Moser et al.

Pediatric research, 16(3), 172-175 (1982-03-01)

Amniocentesis was performed in two women heterozygous for adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD). One fetus was male, and the hexacosanoic acid (C26) level in the cultured amniotic cells was 0.808 microgram per mg of protein, compared to 0.104 +/- 0.069 (S.D.) in controls.

Adrenomyeloneuropathy presenting as Addison's disease in childhood.

A Sadeghi-Nejad et al.

The New England journal of medicine, 322(1), 13-16 (1990-01-04)

Adrenoleukodystrophy, a sex-linked peroxisomal disorder that results in the impaired oxidation of long-chain saturated fatty acids and causes neurologic impairment, is a rare cause of Addison's disease in children. Adrenomyeloneuropathy is the name given to a biochemically identical but milder
