| sulfatidates | Cerebroside sulfuric esters containing one or more sulfate groups in the sugar portion of the molecule. Synonym: sulfatidates. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulfatide lipidosis | <radiology> Dysmyelinating disease, autosomal recessive, aryl sulfatase A -- absent from urine and serum, most present by 2 yrs, die at 3-4 yrs, may arise at any age, CT: decreased density of white matter, primarily in centrum semiovale, with or without focal gall bladder defects (!)

| sulfatidosis | A combination of metachromatic leukodystrophy and mucopolysaccharidosis caused by deficiency of sulfatase enzymes such as arylsulfatases A, B, and C, and steroid sulfatases; characterised by coarse facial features, ichthyosis, hepatosplenomegaly, and skeletal abnormalities, with increased urinary excretion of dermatan and heparan sulfates. See: metachromatic leukodystrophy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulfation | Addition of sulfate groups as esters to preexisting molecules. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulfation factor | <protein> Peptide hormone (4 kD) that is produced in the liver and is released in response to somatotropin. Somatomedin stimulates the growth of bone and muscle and also influences calcium, phosphate, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. See: insulin like growth factor. (18 Nov 1997) |
