“…These include carbonic anhydrase II deficiency 115 (renal tubular acidosis and cerebral calcification) and a severe disease characterized by early onset of spasticity and death with eosinophilic inclusion bodies seen on CNS pathological examination (here termed 'neuronopathic' osteopetrosis since it mimics neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis). 116,117 In both diseases HCT abolishes bone sclerosis.…”

“…However, it has no impact on neurodegenerative disease in the latter form 116,118 and CNS amelioration in CAII deficiency seems unlikely. 115,119 . Therefore, these issues must be considered as transplantation is discussed in affected children.…”

“…In mammals, the CA isozymes are coded by at least seven genes, designated CA I-CA VII, which in general have different tissue specificities and probably varying physiological roles [2]. In humans, an inherited deficiency of CA II (CA II deficiency syndrome) is characterized by osteopetrosis, renal tubular acidosis, and cerebral calcification [3] and in mice by renal tubular acidosis [4] and vascular calcifications [5]. The osteopetrosis in CA II deficiency syndrome is an osteoclast-specific defect as shown by two lines of evidence.…”
