French national reference center for inherited metabolic diseases in children and adults (MAMEA)
The MAMEA rare diseases reference center takes care of children and adults with inherited metabolic diseases. For several years, it has been developing the most recent drug and dietetic treatments for diseases caused by intoxication by proteins and sugars, energy diseases, and enzyme replacement therapies, substrate reduction therapies for lysosomal diseases, various therapies for other metabolic diseases.
The Necker site works in close collaboration with the competence centers, in particular Rouen and Caen, other reference centers and patient associations throughout the country, the G2M healthcare network and European centers (métabERN).

Inherited metabolic diseases (IMD) are the consequence of the genetic deficit of an enzyme or a transporter involved in numerous metabolic pathways.
They are classified into 3 groups according to a common pathophysiology:
- Diseases by poisoning
- Diseases by energy deficit
- Diseases of complex molecules
IMDs are individually very rare (frequency of 1/5,000 to 1/500,000) but nevertheless remain very numerous since it is admitted that of the 4,000 to 6,000 potentially existing diseases, only around 500 are currently identified with new descriptions of diseases that are sometimes difficult to classify.
The first two groups are also often referred to as disorders of intermediary metabolism, involving the metabolism of proteins, sugars, lipids and it is these diseases that are at risk for acute decompensation.
These « metabolic distresses » can present themselves at any age, in different forms.
It is very important to mention them because most are treatable, the treatment saves life in the short term and changes the prognosis, especially neurological, in the medium and longer term.
Beyond the diagnostic and therapeutic approach which are often mixed and complex in view of the rarity of pathologies, it is essential to think about it and know how to implement the first simple measures before entrusting the patient to experienced teams, within reference and competence centers.
IMDs represent a challenge not only for the patient through care, particularly in the event of a metabolic emergency, but also for the family through genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis on an individual scale.
At the collective level, the question of extending neonatal screening for certain IMDs arises, in particular thanks to current technical possibilities, better knowledge of the natural history of diseases and the development of specific therapies, this consideration being guided by ethics.
Diseases by poisoning
This group includes diseases of the intermediary metabolism which lead to acute or progressive intoxication by the accumulation of toxic compounds upstream of the enzymatic block.
This group includes aminoacidopathies (phenylketonuria, leukinosis, homocystinuria, tyrosinemia, etc.), organic acidurias (mathylmalonic, propionic, isovaleric aciduria, etc.), urea cycle deficits and related (OTC deficiency, lysinuric protein intolerance, etc.), sugar intolerances (galactosemia, hereditary fructose intolerance, etc.).
All of these conditions, with a few exceptions, share some common characteristics.
They do not interfere with embryo-foetal development and occur after a free interval after birth with clinical signs of acute (vomiting, lethargy, coma, multivisceral failure …) or chronic (anorexia, growth retardation, psychomotor retardation, cardiomyopathy …) intoxication.
They are likely to decompensate in « metabolic crises », recurrently during catabolic events (fever, intercurrent infection, fasting…) or when ingesting « toxic » foods.
Their diagnosis is based on blood and urine amino acid chromatography, urine organic chromatography and acylcarnitine profile. Most of these diseases can be treated by the purification of toxic compounds in emergency situations (hemodialysis, purifying drugs, etc.) and by special restrictive diets the rest of the time, for life.
Diseases by energy deficit
This group includes inherited metabolic diseases with symptoms linked, at least in part, to the failure to produce, use or store energy, involving the liver, striated muscle (peripheral and cardiac), brain, retina … high energy consumers.
It can be schematically divided into 2, distinguishing the defect of mitochondrial and cytoplasmic energy metabolism.
Mitochondrial energy deficits are the most severe and generally untreatable.
They include congenital lactic acidosis (mitochondrial pyruvate transporter deficiency, pyruvate carboxylase deficiency, pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency and Krebs cycle deficits), respiratory chain deficits (involving the 5 complexes of the respiratory chain but also mitochondrial transporters of energy molecules and the synthesis of Q10 coenzyme ), fatty acid oxidation deficits and metabolism of ketone bodies.
Cytoplasmic energy deficits are generally less severe.
They include deficits in the metabolism of glycolysis (pentose pathway, etc.) and of glycogen (gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis with hepatic and muscular glycogenoses), hyperinsulinisms, disorders of creatine metabolism.
Common warning signs are hypoglycemia, hepatomegaly, lactic acidosis, myo (cardio) pathy, growth retardation, hypotonia or various neurological symptoms, sudden death in childhood.
Certain mitochondrial deficits and deficits on the pentose pathway can interfere with embryo-fetal development and lead to dysmorphia, dysplasias and malformations.
Diagnosis is difficult and is based on functional explorations (fasting tests, etc.), enzymatic assays requiring cell cultures (skin, muscle biopsies, etc.) and on molecular analyzes.
Diseases of complex molecules
This group concerns intracellular organelles (lysosome, peroxisome, etc.) and groups together diseases that disrupt the synthesis or the catabolism of complex molecules within them: lysosomal and peroxisomal diseases, deficits in protein glycosylation (CDG syndromes) , deficits in the endogenous synthesis of cholesterol and bile acids as well as other deficits involving the trafficking of complex molecules.
Symptoms are permanent, progressive and independent of intercurrent events or diet since they concern structural proteins and not those involved in the pathways of intermediary metabolism.
These diseases are polymorphic, multiorgan, often with neurological expression, which can lead to damage as early as fetal life (foeto-placental hydrops, brain malformations, polymalformative syndromes, etc.);
The diagnosis is based on specific enzymatic assays which may be based on urine screening tests and the highlight of mutations in molecular biology.
Most of these diseases are not treatable, but there is currently enzyme replacement therapy for some of them and a large area of research devoted to the development of new therapies.
