The Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG) are an expanding group of genetic disorders which encompass a spectrum of glycosylation defects of protein and lipids, including N- & O-linked defects and among the latter are the muscular ...

Bleeding Disorders in Children With Genetic Diseases: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Aim The lack of data on bleeding risk assessment in children with genetic diseases is concerning given their increased care needs and risk of haemorrhagic complications compared to the general population. Identification of haemostatic disorders is crucial for implementing preventive measures and mitigating bleeding risk.

DHPLC analysis as a platform for molecular diagnosis of congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) [PDF]
Since 1997, the molecular basis of six different types of Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation with a defect in the synthesis of N-glycans (CDG-I) has been identified. To assure an efficient molecular diagnosis of the six genes involved in these types, we established a denaturing high-pressure liquid chromatography (DHPLC) screening procedure. Primers

Clinical and Genetic Characteristics of Free Sialic Acid Storage Disorder
ABSTRACT Free sialic acid storage disorder (FSASD) is a lysosomal storage disorder that results from biallelic pathogenic variants in the SLC17A5 gene. This gene codes for sialin, a 12‐transmembrane domain protein that exports the charged sugar N‐acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac; sialic acid) out of the lysosome.

Transferrin D protein variants in the diagnosis of congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) [PDF]
AbstractCongenital disorders of glycosylation are a rapidly growing group of inherited (neuro)metabolic disorders characterized by defects in glycosylation of proteins and lipids. This study discusses an analytical problem in the differentiation between hypoglycosylation and transferrin (Tf) protein variants.

ABSTRACT The importance of early diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) is well known, as it allows early intervention to prevent or reduce complications and improve prognosis, since many of these disorders are treatable. However, diagnosis can still be delayed, and many patients remain undiagnosed. Reducing diagnosis delays is a primary goal

Organoids for Metabolic Disease Modeling
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) are a diverse group of rare genetic disorders that disrupt metabolic pathways, leading to severe clinical manifestations. Disease models ranging from complex animal models to simple in vitro systems have provided insights into IMDs, but each has limitations.

Clinical Outcomes and Management in Late Diagnosed Siblings Affected With Attenuated GSD Ib
ABSTRACT Glycogen storage disease 1b (GSD1b) typically presents in early infancy with poor fasting tolerance, hepatomegaly, and neutropenia. We report two siblings who were diagnosed with GSD1b in adulthood. Both had a normal fasting tolerance throughout childhood and, as adults, were able to fast for at least 16 h without developing hypoglycaemia. The
