Описание к видео Homocystinuria Patient Testimony - Alex "Alex Orange Drink"

Alex describes his journey with Classical Homocystinuria (HCU) (Cystathionine Beta Synthase).

Homocystinuria is a rare, autosomal recessive inherited metabolic disorder. The most common form of the disorder is known as classical homocystinuria and is caused by a missing enzyme known as Cystathionine Beta-Synthase (CBS). This enzyme defect causes a progressive accumulation of homocysteine to toxic levels in the blood. When untreated this disorder is life-threatening and has detrimental effects on the brain, the eyes, the skeleton, and the vascular system.
