From the Klinik und Poliklinik für Kinderheilkunde and the
Institut für Zellbiologie, ZMBE, Universität Münster,
Münster, Germany; the Max-Planck-Institut für
Physiologische und Klinische Forschung, Bad Nauheim, Germany; and The
Burnham Institute, La Jolla, CA.
We describe a simple, noninvasive, and effective therapy for
leukocyte adhesion deficiency type II (LAD II), a rare inherited disorder of fucose metabolism. This disorder leads to an
immunodeficiency caused by the absence of carbohydrate-based selectin
ligands on the surface of neutrophils as well as to severe psychomotor
and mental retardation. The fucosylation defect in LAD II fibroblasts can be corrected by addition of L-fucose to the culture medium. This
prompted us to initiate dietary fucose therapy on a patient with LAD
II. Oral supplementation of fucose in this patient induced the
expression of fucosylated selectin ligands on neutrophils and core
fucosylation of serum glycoproteins. During 9 months of treatment,
infections and fever disappeared, elevated neutrophil counts returned
to normal, and psychomotor capabilities improved.
