Gaucher’s disease is an genetic condition that is due to the lack of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase. It is the buildup of fatty matter in the organs, especially in the liver and spleen. These fatty substance can increase in the bone tissue, increase the risk of fractures and weaken the bones. It belongs to the diseases called lysosomal storage disease, which are named after a type of cell that is involved in the formation of glycolipid. A person with this disease lacks the enzyme or protein called glucocerebrosidase. It is a type of lipid known as a glucosylceramide, which are fats used for energy. If these lipids are defective, they will start to collect inside the cells of the brain, liver, lungs and bone marrow. If this occurs, the organs will not function properly.
