Hartnup disease may be marked by skin problems, coordination impairment, vision problems, mild mental retardation, gastrointestinal problems, and central nervous system abnormalities.
Hartnup disorder is an inherited metabolic disorder involving the transport of certain amino acids (for example, tryptophan and histidine) in the small intestine and kidneys. Hartnup disease is classified in the group of the Neutral Aminoacidurias, since the amino acids lost in the urine are the so called neutral amino acids : tryptophan, alanine, asparagine, glutamine, histidine,isoleucine, leucine, phenylalanine, serine, threonine, tyrosine and valine. Factors that may precipitate acute attacks of this disorder may include poor nutrition, exposure to sunlight, sulphonamide medications and/or psychological stress.
