Table1_Case report: Expanding the understanding of the adult polyglucosan body disease continuum: novel presentations, diagnostic pitfalls, and clinical pearls.DOCX

open access: yes, 2023
Introduction: Adult polyglucosan body disease (APBD) has long been regarded as the adult-onset form of glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV) and is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in GBE1.

Use of levetiracetam for the successful treatment of suspected myoclonic seizures: five dogs (2016‐2022)

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, Volume 65, Issue 6, Page 402-408, June 2024.
Objectives Myoclonic seizures are considered a type of generalised seizure characterised by brief, jerking movements of the body. The aim of this study is to describe cases of suspected canine myoclonic seizure of idiopathic aetiology and to discuss the successful use of the anticonvulsant levetiracetam as treatment in each of these cases.

Targeting GYS1: From Metabolic Regulatory Mechanisms to Precision Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesShengwu huaxue yu shengwu wuli jinzhan
Glycogen synthase 1 (GYS1) is the rate-limiting enzyme responsible for glycogen synthesis in skeletal muscle, heart, brain, and other extrahepatic tissues, playing a central role in systemic energy homeostasis.

Adult polyglucosan body disease masquerading as "ALS with dementia of the Alzheimer type": An exceptional phenotype in a rare pathology

open access: yes, 2012
We describe an exceptional clinical picture, namely, cognitive impairment of the Alzheimer disease type in a man who later developed manifestations typical of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and who was subsequently found to have adult polyglucosan body ...

Role of epigenetics and alterations in RNA metabolism in leukodystrophies

open access: yesWIREs RNA, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2024.
Leukodystrophies are rare brain disorders affecting white matter, with a clinical diversity still to be explained. Beyond genetics, epigenetic factors like histone modifications, DNA methylation, and non‐coding RNA dysregulation, as well as aberrant RNA maturation, are emerging as crucial contributors to these disorders.

Glycogen accumulation modulates life span in a mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 168, Issue 5, Page 744-759, May 2024.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of motor neurons in the spinal cord. Using the ALS mouse model expressing the G93A mutant of Superoxide Dismutase 1 (SOD1G93A), we found that glycogen accumulates in the spinal cord during disease progression, and that increased glycogen

Severe neuromuscular forms of glycogen storage disease type IV: Histological, clinical, biochemical, and molecular findings in a large French case series

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 255-269, March 2024.
Abstract Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV), also called Andersen disease, or amylopectinosis, is a highly heterogeneous autosomal recessive disorder caused by a glycogen branching enzyme (GBE, 1,4‐alpha‐glucan branching enzyme) deficiency secondary to pathogenic variants on GBE1 gene. The incidence is evaluated to 1:600 000 to 1:800 000 of live
