Liver Transplantation for Glycogen Storage Disease Type IV [PDF]
Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by glycogen–branching enzyme (GBE) deficiency, leading to accumulation of amylopectin–like glycogen that may damage affected tissues.

Case report: Familial glycogen storage disease type IV caused by novel compound heterozygous mutations in a glycogen branching enzyme 1 gene [PDF]
Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV), caused by a mutation in the glycogen branching enzyme 1 (GBE1) gene, is a rare metabolic disorder with an autosomal recessive inheritance that involves the liver, neuromuscular, and cardiac systems.

An Unusual Case of Neonatal Hypotonia and Femur Fracture: Neuromuscular Variant of Glycogen Storage Disease Type IV [PDF]
Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV) (OMIM #232500) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by deficiency of the glycogen-branching enzyme. Here, we report a patient presenting with prematurity and severe hypotonia resulting from a complicated ...

Further Characterization of Glycogen from Type‐IV Glycogen‐Storage Disease [PDF]
Glycogen from a male child suffering from type IV glycogenosis was debranched with bacterial isoamylase and fractionated on Sephadex G‐50. The unit chains, set free by the isoamylase, emerged as a single peak, similar to that for normal human liver glycogen, but of higher average chain length.

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 well as in cultured skin fibroblasts and other tissues.2,3 This branching enzyme is responsible for

Hepatocellular carcinoma in glycogen storage disease type IV [PDF]
A 13 year old patient with juvenile type IV glycogen storage disease died of the complications of hepatocellular carcinoma. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of hepatocellular carcinoma in association with type IV glycogen storage disease.

Glycogen storage disease type IV: a case report [PDF]
Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD-IV) is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by deficient glycogen branching enzyme (GBE). We report a 15-month-old female patient with GSD-IV who exhibited an abdominal distension and failure to thrive for 9 months. The patient showed hepatosplenomegaly with massive ascites.

The Fine Structure of Glycogen from Type IV Glycogen‐Storage Disease [PDF]
The structure of glycogen isolated from a male child suffering from type IV glycogenosis (amylopectinosis) has been examined. It is confirmed that the polysaccharide is superficially similar to plant amylopectin. However, a more searching analysis involving the examination and comparison of the pullulanase‐debranched polysaccharides, revealed marked ...
