glucose-galactose malabsorption

glucose-galactose malabsorption
an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutation in the SLC5A1 (SGLT1) gene (locus: 22q13.1), which encodes the intestinal sodium/glucose cotransporter, resulting in defective intestinal glucose and galactose transport. It is characterized by neonatal onset of profuse, acidic, watery diarrhea leading to severe dehydration and death if untreated; it can be treated by a glucose- and galactose-free diet.
