It could be useful to cite the relevant literature on fucose in this article, considering that oral administration of fucose to some LAD II patients has beneficial effects. [1] --Antelan talk 18:35, 20 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

LAD Types

edit

The different LAD types have different gene defects. For example, )at least) one form of LAD II has a defect in a GDP-fucose transporter [2], which is not explained in the article. This is a note-to-self (or anyone else who comes along) to update the article to more fully explain LAD. Antelan talk 20:06, 10 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
