Dysregulation of multiple facets of glycogen metabolism in a murine model of Pompe disease. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Pompe disease, also known as glycogen storage disease (GSD) type II, is caused by deficiency of lysosomal acid α-glucosidase (GAA). The resulting glycogen accumulation causes a spectrum of disease severity ranging from a rapidly progressive course that ...

Systemic Emboli and Biventricular Hypertrophy Due to Glycogen Storage Disease: Clinical, Imaging, and Pathologic Predicament

open access: yesAnnals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases, 2023
Glycogen storage disease cardiomyopathy is being recognized increasingly as a mimicker of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It is important to diagnose these diseases, as there are prognostic and treatment ramifications.

Neurological Characteristics of Pediatric Glycogen Storage Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Glycogen storage diseases (GSD) encompass a group of rare inherited diseases due dysfunction of glycogen metabolism. Hypoglycemia is the most common primary manifestation of GSD, and disturbances in glucose metabolism can cause neurological damage.

Patients with glycogen storage diseases undergoing anesthesia: a case series

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2017
Background Glycogen storage diseases are rare genetic disorders of glycogen synthesis, degradation, or metabolism regulation. When these patients are subjected to anesthesia, perioperative complications can develop, including hypoglycemia, rhabdomyolysis,

SLC37A4-CDG: Mislocalization of the glucose-6-phosphate transporter to the Golgi causes a new congenital disorder of glycosylation

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2020
Loss-of-function of the glucose-6-phosphate transporter is caused by biallelic mutations in SLC37A4 and leads to glycogen storage disease Ib. Here we describe a second disease caused by a single dominant mutation in the same gene.

Platelet glycogenolysis is important for energy production and function

open access: yesPlatelets, 2023
Although the presence of glycogen in platelets was established in the 1960s, its importance to specific functions (i.e., activation, secretion, aggregation, and clot contraction) remains unclear.

Skeletal Muscle Glycogen Chain Length Correlates with Insolubility in Mouse Models of Polyglucosan-Associated Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: Lafora disease (LD) and adult polyglucosan body disease (APBD) are glycogen storage diseases characterized by a pathogenic buildup of insoluble glycogen. Mechanisms causing glycogen insolubility are poorly understood.

Short and long-term acceptability and efficacy of extended-release cornstarch in the hepatic glycogen storage diseases: results from the Glyde study

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Hypoglycaemia is the primary manifestation of all the hepatic types of glycogen storage disease (GSD). In 2008, Glycosade®, an extended-release waxy maize cornstarch, was reported as an alternative to uncooked cornstarch (UCCS) which could ...
