Beta-mannosidosis, also called lysosomal beta-mannosidase deficiency,[5] is a disorder of oligosaccharide metabolism caused by decreased activity of the enzyme beta-mannosidase. This enzyme is coded for by the gene MANBA, located at 4q22-25. Beta-mannosidosis is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.[5]

Affected individuals appear normal at birth, and can have a variable clinical presentation. Infantile onset forms show severe neurodegeneration, while some children have intellectual disability. Hearing loss and angiokeratomas are common features of the disease.[3][1]

Symptoms and signs

Angiokreatoma

The initial affected individual described in 1986 had a complex phenotype, and was later found to have both beta-mannosidosis and Sanfilippo syndrome.[5]

People have been described with a wide spectrum of clinical presentations from infants and children with intellectual disability to adults who present with isolated skin findings (angiokeratomas).[5]

Most cases are identified in the first year of life with respiratory infections, hearing loss and intellectual disability. Because of its rarity, and non-specific clinical findings, beta-mannosidosis can go undiagnosed until adulthood, where it can present with intellectual disability and behavioral problems, including aggression.[6][2]

Cause

In terms of causation several mutations in the MANBA gene is the cause of beta-mannosidosis. The cytogenetic location of the gene is 4q24, furthermore the condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner[7][1][8]

Mechanism

The pathophysiology of this condition, is better comprehended, if one first looks at the normal function of beta-mannosidase such as its function of breaking down disaccharides[9][10]

Beta-mannosidase function is consistent with, it being a lysosomal enzyme catalyzing and thus involved in degradation route for N-linked oligosaccharide moieties(glycoproteins)[8]

Diagnosis

A diagnosis of beta-mannosidosis is suspected based on the following:[3]

Differential diagnosis

Diagnostic techniques for this condition can be done to offer a DDx, via lectin histochemistry to distinguish between α-mannosidosis and beta-mannosidosis.[11]

Treatment

In terms of beta-mannosidosis treatment, there is none currently, individuals that exhibit muscle weakness or seizures are treated based on the symptoms, since there's no cure[4]

Frequency

About 20 individuals have been identified worldwide with Beta-mannosidosis.[12]
