Liver transplantation for type IV glycogen storage disease [PDF]
TYPE IV glycogen storage disease is a rare autosomal recessive disorder (also called Andersen's disease1 or amylopectinosis) in which the activity of branching enzyme alpha-1, 4-glucan: alpha-1, 4-glucan 6-glucosyltransferase is deficient in the liver as

Mutations in the liver glycogen phosphorylase (Pygl) gene are associated with the diagnosis of glycogen storage disease type VI (GSD‐VI). To understand the pathogenesis of GSD‐VI, we generated a mouse model with Pygl deficiency (Pygl−/−).

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

Chimerism after Liver Transplantation for Type IV Glycogen Storage Disease and Type 1 Gaucher's Disease [PDF]
Background: Liver transplantation for type IV glycogen storage disease (branching-enzyme deficiency) results in the resorption of extrahepatic deposits of amylopectin, but the mechanism of resorption is not known.

Glycogenin is Dispensable for Glycogen Synthesis in Human Muscle, and Glycogenin Deficiency Causes Polyglucosan Storage [PDF]
Glycogenin is considered to be an essential primer for glycogen biosynthesis. Nevertheless, patients with glycogenin-1 deficiency due to biallelic GYG1 (NM_004130.3) mutations can store glycogen in muscle.

Neurological Characteristics of Pediatric Glycogen Storage Disease
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.
