Early-onset gout and rare deficient variants of the lactate dehydrogenase D gene
6 Apr 2023
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether the lactate dehydrogenase D (LDHD) gene deficiency causes juvenile-onset gout. METHODS: We used whole-exome sequencing for two families and a targeted gene-sequencing panel for an isolated patient. d-lactate dosages were analysed using ELISA. RESULTS: We demonstrated linkage of juvenile-onset gout to homozygous carriage of three rare distinct LDHD variants in three different...
