Disease Information

Summary

X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy is a genetic disorder that mainly affects the nervous system and the adrenal glands, which are located on top of each kidney. In this disorder, the fatty covering (myelin) that insulates nerves in the brain and spinal cord tends to deteriorate (a condition called demyelination). The loss of myelin reduces the ability of the nerves to relay information to the brain. In addition, damage to the outer layer of the adrenal glands (adrenal cortex) causes a shortage of certain hormones (adrenocortical insufficiency). Adrenocortical insufficiency may cause weakness, weight loss, skin changes, vomiting, and coma. There are four distinct types of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy: a childhood cerebral form, an adrenomyeloneuropathy type, an adrenal insufficiency only form, and a type called asymptomatic. The childhood cerebral form of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy typically occurs in boys. Girls are rarely affected with this type. If not treated, affected boys experience learning and behavioral problems that usually begin between the ages of 4 and 10. Over time the symptoms can worsen, and children may have difficulty reading, writing, understanding speech, and comprehending written material. Additional signs and symptoms of the cerebral form include aggressive behavior, vision problems, difficulty swallowing, poor coordination, and impaired adrenal gland function. The rate at which this disorder progresses is variable but can be extremely rapid, often leading to total disability within a few years. The life expectancy of individuals with this type depends on whether early diagnosis and treatment are available. Without treatment, individuals with the cerebral form of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy usually survive only a few years after symptoms begin. Signs and symptoms of the adrenomyeloneuropathy type appear between early adulthood and middle age. Affected individuals develop progressive stiffness and weakness in their legs (paraparesis), experience urinary and genital tract disorders, and often show changes in behavior and intellectual function. Most people with the adrenomyeloneuropathy type also have adrenocortical insufficiency. Some severely affected individuals develop cerebral X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy.  People with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy whose only symptom is adrenocortical insufficiency are said to have the adrenal insufficiency only form. In these individuals, adrenocortical insufficiency can begin anytime between the first year of life and adulthood. However, most affected individuals develop the additional features of cerebral X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy in childhood or the adrenomyeloneuropathy type by the time they reach middle age. The life expectancy of individuals with the adrenal insufficiency form depends on the severity of the signs and symptoms, but typically this is the mildest of the three types. Children with the asymptomatic form do not appear to have any symptoms of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, but medical testing may show brain or biochemical abnormalities. Some individuals with the asymptomatic form may develop features of other types of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy later in life. Rarely, individuals with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy develop multiple features of the disorder in adolescence or early adulthood. In addition to adrenocortical insufficiency, these individuals usually have psychiatric disorders and a loss of intellectual function (dementia). It is unclear whether these individuals have a distinct form of the condition or a variation of one of the previously described types. For reasons that are unclear, different forms of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy can be seen in affected individuals within the same family.

Causes

What Causes This Disease?

Genetic Mutations

Changes in your genes (also called variants) cause Adrenoleukodystrophy.

Genes are sections of DNA that contains instructions that help the body grow, develop, and function. A genetic variant is a change in your DNA's order. Parents may pass variants to their children, or they may occur randomly. They may result from viruses, environmental factors, such as UV radiation, or a combination of causes.

Most genetic variants do not cause disease. However, some can affect how a gene works and interfere with the body's normal functions. A pathogenic variant is one that causes disease.

If you think you may have this disease, collect your family health history (CDC). It may help you and your medical team to know about family members who have had the disease or similar symptoms and when those symptoms first appeared.

Known Genetic Mutations

Adrenoleukodystrophy is caused by genetic mutations in the following known gene(s):

ABCD1
Learn more about these genes by searching them on the National Library of Medicine (NLM).

Given these known genetic mutation(s), you may want to ask your health care team if genetic testing is right for you. Genetic tests are laboratory tests that use samples of blood, saliva, or other tissues to help identify changes in genes, chromosomes, or proteins. Genetic testing can help confirm or rule out a suspected genetic disease or can provide other useful information to your health care team. Learn more about genetic testing from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI).

What causes disruption in metabolism?

Adrenoleukodystrophy is caused by a disruption in a person's metabolism. Metabolism is the series of chemical reactions in our body that turns the food we eat into energy and removes toxins. Hormones and specific proteins, called enzymes, help make the right chemical reactions happen in the right order. However, genetic changes can prevent hormones or enzymes from working properly, which can lead to a disruption in metabolism such as energy not being created for the body or toxins not being removed from the body. Learn more about inherited metabolic diseases from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI).

Damaged White Matter in CNS

Adrenoleukodystrophy is caused by damaged white matter in the central nervous system (CNS). The brain and spinal cord make up the CNS. The white matter portions of the CNS get its color from a tissue called myelin. Myelin is made up of proteins and fatty materials called lipids. Myelin wraps around nerves, protecting them and helping to speed up the signals between nerves in the CNS. Genetic changes can affect the growth or function of myelin, which can slow or block the communication between nerves. Learn more about leukodystrophies from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS).

Can diseases be passed down from parent to child?

A biological parent can sometimes pass down genetic changes, called mutations, that cause a disease or increase the chances of developing it. This is called inheritance. Knowing if other family members have had the disease, also known as your family health history, can give your medical team important information. The Surgeon General offers a tool to help you collect your family health history.

X-Linked

X-linked inheritance means the genetic mutation is located on the X chromosome, one of the sex chromosomes. The male sex chromosome pair consists of one X and one Y chromosome (XY). The female sex chromosome pair consists of two X chromosomes (XX). Because males have just one X chromosome, it takes only one copy of the mutated gene to cause the disease. Females that have one copy of the mutated gene may have symptoms similar to those experienced by affected males, but usually have less severe symptoms, or no symptoms at all.

Female parents with one X-linked mutated gene have a 50% chance of passing on the mutation to each of their biological children. Male parents with an X-linked mutated gene will pass on the mutation to all their female children but cannot pass the mutation on to their male children.

Navigating Health Care Decisions

On average, it can take more than six years to receive an accurate diagnosis. Many primary care providers (PCPs) may not be familiar with rare diseases, and patients often need to visit multiple specialists or seek second opinions to get answers.

If a diagnosis remains unclear, visiting a multidisciplinary care center or university hospital may help. These centers bring together teams of specialists who can work together to evaluate symptoms and coordinate a diagnosis. This team-based approach is also helpful after a diagnosis, when managing care for rare diseases.

Because only about 5% of rare diseases have FDA-approved treatments, finding the right healthcare team to manage your symptoms and overall health is essential. People living with rare diseases often face challenges such as delayed diagnosis, limited treatment options, and difficulty accessing knowledgeable providers. Building a care team that understands your needs can make a significant difference in your quality of life.

Your Health Care Team

Why is building the right health care team important?

Building the right health care team is key to the diagnosis, treatment, and management of your long-term health journey living with a rare disease. Start by choosing a primary care provider (PCP). Your PCP will be your main point of contact and help coordinate care with other medical professionals. Your PCP may order tests or refer you to specialists. To find a PCP near you, use the Medicare provider search tool and enter your location and “Primary Care Provider.”

Seeing multiple specialists is important for people with rare diseases because these conditions often affect many parts of the body and require care from doctors with different expertise. Most primary care providers may not be familiar with rare diseases, so involving specialists can lead to a more accurate diagnosis and better care. A coordinated team approach ensures that all symptoms are addressed and that care is well-managed. It can also connect patients with the latest research or treatment options.

A PCP that specializes in the care of children is called a pediatrician. Use this tool by the American Academy of Pediatrics to find a pediatrician in your area by inputting your location.

These specialists may help in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of Adrenoleukodystrophy:

Neurologists are doctors with specialized training in diagnosing and treating conditions that affect the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. These parts of the nervous system help control how the body moves, feels, and thinks. Neurologists often care for people with seizures, memory problems, muscle weakness, movement disorders, and inherited conditions such as muscular dystrophies. To better understand a person's symptoms, neurologists may use imaging tests that show the brain or spine, or tests that measure the brain’s electrical activity.

You may want to consider bringing a copy of your medical history and a list of any medications to your appointment.

Ask your primary care provider for a referral or use this directory provided by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology to find a specialist. 
Geneticists are doctors trained to diagnose and manage conditions caused by genetic changes, birth defects, or metabolic disorders. Metabolic disorders affect how the body makes or uses energy. Geneticists often work alongside genetic counselors to review family history, discuss genetic risks, explain testing options, and interpret genetic test results. They help people understand how inherited conditions may affect them and their families.

You may want to consider bringing a copy of your medical history and a list of any medications to your appointment.

Ask your primary care provider for a referral or use this directory provided by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics to find a specialist.
Endocrinologists are doctors trained to diagnose and manage diseases related to hormones. Hormones are chemical messengers that help coordinate many body functions, including metabolism, growth, and reproduction. Endocrinologists commonly treat conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, and certain hormone-related cancers. They also care for people with concerns about growth or sexual development. Treatment options may include medications, hormone replacement therapy, or surgery, depending on the condition.

You may want to consider bringing a copy of your medical history and a list of any medications to your appointment.

Ask your primary care provider for a referral or use this directory provided by the Endocrine Society to find a specialist.
Epileptologists are neurologists with advanced training in diagnosing and treating epilepsy and seizure disorders. They specialize in evaluating complex or drug-resistant forms of epilepsy, including rare types that may involve multiple seizure types or be linked to genetic or metabolic disorders. Epileptologists may use tools such as electroencephalogram (EEG), brain imaging, and genetic testing to help guide treatment.

You may want to consider bringing a copy of your medical history and a list of any medications to your appointment.

Ask your primary care provider for a referral or use this directory by Medicare to search for an epileptologist in your area. Search using the keyword “epilepsy."
Urologists are doctors with specialized training in diagnosing and treating conditions that affect the urinary system in both males and females, as well as the male reproductive system. They often manage urinary tract infections, kidney stones, bladder control issues, prostate conditions, and cancers involving these organs. Urologists use imaging, lab tests, or procedures to diagnose and guide treatment. Some may specialize in specific areas such as pediatric or cancer-related urology.

You may want to consider bringing a copy of your medical history and a list of any medications to your appointment.

Ask your primary care provider for a referral or use this directory by Medicare to search for a urologist in your area. Search using the keywords “Urology.”

Multidisciplinary Care Centers

Is It Time to Get a Second Opinion or Specialized Evaluation?

If you've visited your PCP, met with specialists, and undergone the recommended tests, but are still searching for a diagnosis, it may be time to visit an academic medical center or, for pediatric patients, a children's hospital. Academic medical centers and children's hospitals, often called multidisciplinary care centers, typically bring together specialists from different fields to work together on complex cases like rare diseases.

Multidisciplinary care centers may offer more coordinated care and be involved in clinical research, which may help reduce the time to diagnosis and provide access to emerging diagnostic tools. Specialists at these centers may have a deeper understanding of rare diseases and serve as a resource when you'd like a second opinion, particularly when test results or treatment plans are not delivering expected results.

Find hospitals that may partner with medical schools and programs in your area. 

Children’s hospitals and large teaching hospitals may also offer dedicated specialists and programs for pediatric patients with undiagnosed or rare diseases. These programs bring pediatric experts together in one place and may provide more coordinated care for your child.

Search for children's or university hospitals in your area.

Rare Disease Experts

How can you find a rare disease expert?

If a diagnosis, care management, or treatment plan remains unclear despite extensive efforts by your PCP and specialists, it may be time to find a rare disease expert for your disease, if available. A rare disease expert is a medical provider that has knowledge or training on specific rare disease(s), but there may only be a few experts in your state, region, or country. Rare disease experts may work at large research or teaching hospitals, sometimes called centers of excellence. Centers of Excellence commit to sharing knowledge and best practices that can lead to improved care and treatment for individuals living with a rare disease. 

You can also contact a GARD Information Specialist for help finding experts, centers of excellence, or clinics that focus on your disease.
You can ask your care providers for help finding an expert or use directory tools to search for experts near you. The following organization(s) may maintain a list of experts or expert centers for people living with Adrenoleukodystrophy:

Find Your Community

How can patient organizations help?

Patient organizations can help patients and families connect. They build public awareness of the disease and are a driving force behind research to improve patients' lives. They may offer online and in-person resources to help people live well with their disease. Many collaborate with medical experts and researchers.

Services of patient organizations differ, but may include:

  • Ways to connect to others and share personal stories
  • Easy-to-read information
  • Up-to-date treatment and research information
  • Patient registries
  • Lists of specialists or specialty centers

Participate in Research

Clinical studies are a part of clinical research and play an important role in medical advances for rare diseases. Through clinical studies, researchers may ultimately uncover better ways to treat, prevent, diagnose, and understand human diseases.

What Are Clinical Studies?

Clinical studies are medical research involving people as participants. There are two main types of clinical studies:

  1. Clinical trials determine if a new test or treatment for a disease is effective and safe by comparing groups receiving different tests/treatments.
  2. Observational studies involve recording changes over time among a specific group of people in their natural settings.

Learn more about clinical trials from this National Institutes of Health webpage.

Why Participate in Clinical Studies?

People participate in clinical trials for many reasons. People with a disease may participate to receive the newest possible treatment and additional care from clinical study staff as well as to help others living with the same or a similar disease. Healthy volunteers may participate to help others and to contribute to moving science forward.

To find the right clinical study we recommend you consult your doctors, other trusted medical professionals, and patient organizations. Additionally, you can use ClinicalTrials.gov to search for clinical studies by disease, terms, or location.

What if There Are No Available Clinical Studies?

ResearchMatch helps connect people interested in research studies  with researchers from top medical centers across the United States. Anyone from the U.S. can register with this free program funded by NIH. Researchers from participating institutions use the database to search for and invite patients or healthy volunteers who meet their study criteria to participate.

Why may you want to consider joining the All of Us Research Program?

The All of Us Research Program is inviting 1 million people from all backgrounds across the U.S. to help build one of the most diverse health databases in history. Researchers will use the data to learn how our biology, lifestyle, and environment affect health. This may one day help them find ways to treat and prevent diseases.

ClinicalTrials.gov, an affiliate of NIH, provides current information on clinical research studies in the United States and abroad. Talk to a trusted doctor before choosing to participate in any clinical study. We recommend checking this site often and searching for studies with related terms/synonyms to improve results.
