Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency Fund

Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency (LAL) is a rare, progressive inherited disorder that affects the body’s ability to produce an enzyme called lysosomal acid lipase. This enzyme is needed in order to breakdown fats and cholesterol in your cells. When this enzyme is missing, fats accumulate in organs and tissues throughout the body leading to liver and cardiovascular disease.
