Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lesch-Nyhan disease is a rare genetic disorder that leads to hyperuricemia (an increase in uric acid in the blood) and is characterized by neurological and behavioral problems, as well as self-destructive tendencies. However, this disease is not associated with cystinosis, which is a separate genetic disorder that affects the transport of cystine in the body. Severe motor defects are also common in Lesch-Nyhan disease.
