A report is given on a hitherto undescribed metabolic disorder, characterized clinically by fatal neonatal acidosis, hypoglycemia and a strong ‘sweaty-feet’ odour. Biochemical features were a massive urinary excretion of glutaric and lactic acids. Isobutyric, isovaleric and α-methylbutyric acids were also greatly increased, followed by adipic, ethylmalonic, α -hydroxybutyric,n-butyric, β-hydroxybutyric, sebacic, suberic, propionic, α-hydroxyisovaleric and hexanoic acids. The serum level of glutaric acid was highly elevated. In the serum there were also abnormal levels of lactic, α -hydroxybutyric, adipic, suberic,p-hydroxyphenyllactic, myristic, hexadecenoic, palmitic, oleic and stearic acids. Plasma lysine and valine-were also elevated.Degradation of14C-labelled glutaric acid and14C-labelled branched-chain amino acids, α-ketoisovaleric and α-ketoisocaproic acids in intact fibroblasts was decreased, whereas that of pyruvic acid was normal.The defect was tentatively supposed to be localized at the level of the metabolism of a range of acyl-CoA compounds.The name glutaric aciduria ‘type II’ is proposed for the patient's disease.
