Adult polyglucosan body disease.

Folia neuropathologica, 1994
A 45-years old unconscious woman was admitted to the hospital, where she died 3 days later. For the preceding month she had suffered from a headache. She had no past medical history. Cerebrospinal fluid pressure was increased, there were 350 mg/100 of protein, and 105 mg/100 of glucose.

Unraveling a history of overlap: A phenotypic comparison of RBCK1‐related disease and glycogen storage disease type IV

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 194, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract RBCK1‐related disease is a rare, multisystemic disorder for which our current understanding of the natural history is limited. A number of individuals initially carried clinical diagnoses of glycogen storage disease IV (GSD IV), but were later found to harbor RBCK1 pathogenic variants, demonstrating challenges of correctly diagnosing RBCK1 ...

The potential of dietary treatment in patients with glycogen storage disease type IV [PDF]

, 2020
There is paucity of literature on dietary treatment in glycogen storage disease (GSD) type IV and formal guidelines are not available. Traditionally, liver transplantation was considered the only treatment option for GSD IV.

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

Journal 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.

SIL1 mutations and clinical spectrum in patients with Marinesco-Sjögren syndrome [PDF]

, 2017
Marinesco-Sjögren syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive multisystem disorder featuring cerebellar ataxia, early-onset cataracts, chronic myopathy, variable intellectual disability and delayed motor development. More recently, mutations in the SIL1 gene,

Proteomic profiling of polyglucosan bodies associated with glycogenin‐1 deficiency in skeletal muscle

Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology, Volume 50, Issue 3, June 2024.
Polyglucosan storage disorders represent an emerging field within neurodegenerative and neuromuscular conditions. We combined molecular genetic analyses, quantitative mass spectrometry of laser micro‐dissected polyglucosan bodies, immunohistochemistry and western blot, and show that the absence of glycogenin‐1 (GYG1), a protein important for glycogen ...

Role of epigenetics and alterations in RNA metabolism in leukodystrophies

WIREs 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.

Dogs with cognitive dysfunction syndrome: a natural model of Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]

, 2014
In the search for appropriate models for Alzheimer's disease (AD) involving animals other than rodents, several laboratories are working with animals that naturally develop cognitive dysfunction. Among the animals tested, dogs are quite unique in helping

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

Journal 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
