Trait
Leukodystrophy
Leukodystrophy refers to deterioration of white matter of the brain resulting from degeneration of myelin sheaths in the CNS. Their basic defect is directly related to the synthesis and maintenance of myelin membranes. Symmetric white matter involvement at MRI is a typical finding in patients with leukodystrophies.
Summary
- Also called
- Degeneration of white matter of brain

Dante Labs condition reports look at the genes behind groups of inherited conditions, read from one whole-genome test. Each page says which conditions and genes a report covers, how it is read and what it cannot tell you.

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Leukodystrophy is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.
