Reference Values

CHOLESTANE-3-BETA, 5-ALPHA, 6-BETA-TRIOL

Cutoff: ≤0.070 nmol/mL

 

7-KETOCHOLESTEROL

Cutoff: ≤0.100 nmol/mL

 

LYSO-SPHINGOMYELIN

Cutoff: ≤0.100 nmol/mL

 

GLUCOPSYCHOSINE

Cutoff: ≤0.003 nmol/mL

 

7-ALPHA-HYDROXY-4-CHOLESTEN-3-ONE (7a-C4)

Cutoff: ≤0.300 nmol/mL

 

7-ALPHA,12-ALPHA-DIHYDROXYCHOLEST-4-en-3-ONE (7a12aC4)

Cutoff: ≤0.100 nmol/mL

Interpretation

An elevation of 7-alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one (7a-C4) and 7-alpha,12-alpha-dihydroxycholest-4-en-3-one (7a12aC4) is strongly suggestive of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis .

 

An elevation of glucopsychosine is indicative of Gaucher disease.

 

An elevation of lyso-sphingomyelin (LSM) and LSM 509 is highly suggestive of Niemann-Pick type A or B disease.

 

An elevation of cholestane-3-beta, 5-alpha, 6-beta-triol and LSM 509 is highly suggestive of Niemann-Pick disease type C.
