Glycogen storage diseases [PDF]
The pathways of glycogen synthesis and degradation have been reviewed in relation to the glycogen storage diseases. Six types of glycogen storage diseases have been classified on the basis of the enzymatic defect which is present. The clinical features, physical findings and laboratory abnormalities present in each type have been discussed and related ...

Lafora disease offers a unique window into neuronal glycogen metabolism [PDF]
Lafora disease (LD) is a fatal, autosomal recessive, glycogen-storage disorder that manifests as severe epilepsy. LD results from mutations in the gene encoding either the glycogen phosphatase laforin or the E3 ubiquitin ligase malin. Individuals with LD

Glycogen storage diseases: An update
Glycogen storage diseases (GSDs), also referred to as glycogenoses, are inherited metabolic disorders of glycogen metabolism caused by deficiency of enzymes or transporters involved in the synthesis or degradation of glycogen leading to aberrant storage and/or utilization. The overall estimated GSD incidence is 1 case per 20000-43000 live births. There
