Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is a disease linked to the X chromosome. It is a result of fatty acid buildup caused by failure of peroxisomal fatty acid beta oxidation which results in the accumulation of very long chain fatty acids in tissues throughout the body.
The subdivisions of this spectrum are hyperpipecolic acidemia, infantile Refsum disease, neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy, and Zellweger syndrome. It can also be referred to as peroxisomal biogenesis disorders, Zellweger syndrome spectrum, NALD, cerebrohepatorenal syndrome, and ZSS. [2]
The one exception to this is any type of leukodystrophy carried on a sex chromosome, such as X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, which is carried on the X-chromosome. Because of the inheritance pattern of X-linked diseases, males are more often affected by this type of leukodystrophy, while female carriers are often symptomatic, though not as ...

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force released a draft recommendation advising against using vitamin D to prevent falls and fractures in people over 60. Pharmacist Katy Dubinsky weighs in.
The other two disorders are neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy (NALD), and infantile Refsum disease (IRD). [5] [6] Although all have a similar molecular basis for disease, Zellweger syndrome is the most severe of these three disorders. [7] Zellweger syndrome is associated with impaired neuronal migration, neuronal positioning, and brain development. [4]
These target all of the usual suspects: puffy eyes, under-eye bags, dark circles, signs of aging and dryness, all thanks to ingredients like sea moss, hydrolyzed vegetable protein and hyaluronic acid.
