This test measures the activity of the Aryl Sulphatase B enzyme in your blood. This enzyme is essential for breaking down certain complex sugars (glycosaminoglycans) within the body's cells.
Why is this test important?
Reduced Aryl Sulphatase B activity is associated with Maroteaux-Lamy Syndrome (MPS VI), a rare genetic disorder that can affect various organs and tissues. This test helps in the diagnosis and monitoring of the condition.
