| lipocortin | <protein> The name given to calcium-binding proteins believed to be secreted by macrophages that acts as an inhibitor of phospholipase A2 enzymes and has a possible role in mediating the antiinflammatry effects of steroids. Lipocortins are identified as proteins of the annexin class and their extracellular role is in some doubt. (18 Nov 1997) |

Major subtypes include chronic juvenile form (Batten disease), slowly progressive behaviour and visual symptoms, autosomal recessive inheritance; acute, late infantile form (Bielschowsky disease); autosomal recessive inheritance; chronic adult form (Kufs disease), variable inheritance; acute infantile form (Santavuori-Haltia disease), fulminating motor and mental deterioration often associated with myoclonic seizures. Minor forms have also been described. (05 Mar 2000) |
