Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography as a potential alternative tool for functional diagnosis of glycogen storage disease type I [PDF]
A 43-year-old woman with genetically confirmed glycogen storage disease type Ib was suspected to have left breast cancer. Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography showed high fluorodeoxyglucose accumulation in the whole liver as well as left ...

Glycogen storage disease type I: Genetic etiology, clinical manifestations, and conventional and gene therapies [PDF]
Glycogen storage disease type I (GSDI) is an inherited metabolic disorder characterized by a deficiency of enzymes or proteins involved in glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis, resulting in excessive intracellular glycogen accumulation.

Hyperfiltration and renal disease in glycogen storage disease, type I [PDF]
A prospective study of 14 patients (ages 6 months to 33 years) with glycogen storage disease, Type I (GSD-I) was carried out in order to define the character and frequency of renal dysfunction. A marked increase in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was documented in virtually all subjects, with the mean GFR raised by approximately 50%, to the range ...

Platelet Dysfunction in Glycogen Storage Disease Type I [PDF]
Abstract A hemorrhagic tendency has been observed in patients with glycogen storage disease Type I (GSD-I). We have studied the hemostatic mechanism in six patients with GSD-I who have mild to severe bleeding tendencies. All exhibited abnormalities of platelet function (decreased prothrombin consumption, abnormal aggregation reactions ...

Gene Therapy for Type I Glycogen Storage Diseases [PDF]
The type I glycogen storage diseases (GSD-I) are a group of related diseases caused by a deficiency in the glucose-6-phosphatase-alpha (G6Pase-alpha) system, a key enzyme complex that is essential for the maintenance of blood glucose homeostasis between meals.

The Pathogenesis of Hyperuricemia in Glycogen Storage Disease, Type I [PDF]
After the infusion of fructose, 0.25 g/kg body weight, blood uric acid levels were significantly increased above the mean basal value in five patients with glycogen storage disease (GSD), type I (P less than 0.02-P less than 0.05). The mean fasting blood inorganic phosphate (Pi) level in the patients was 3.9 +/- 0.3 mg/100 ml and was significantly ...
