[Advances in the diagnosis and treatment of phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency]. [PDF]

open access: yesZhongguo Dang Dai Er Ke Za Zhi, 2023
Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency is the most common form of N-glycosylation disorders and is also known as phosphomannomutase 2-congenital disorder of glycosylation (PMM2-CDG). It is an autosomal recessive disease with multi-system involvements and is caused by mutations in the PMM2 gene (OMIM: 601785), with varying severities in individuals. At present,

Insight on molecular pathogenesis and pharmacochaperoning potential in phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency, provided by novel human phosphomannomutase 2 structures [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2021
AbstractPhosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) deficiency, the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation (PMM2‐CDG), is a severe condition, which has no cure. Due to the identification of destabilizing mutations, our group aims at increasing residual activity in PMM2‐CDG patients, searching for pharmacochaperones.

Identification of a Homozygous PGM2L1 Variant in a Male Patient With Developmental Delay and Seizures. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Genet Genomic Med
A rare homozygous variant in the PGM2L1 gene (NM_173582.6: c.1673delC, p.Thr558Ilefs*19) was identified in a patient presenting with developmental delay, seizures, and bilateral frontotemporal subarachnoid widening. ABSTRACT Background PGM2L1 gene variants are associated with developmental delays, seizures, and various neurological and physical ...

Organoids for Metabolic Disease Modeling. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) are a diverse group of rare genetic disorders that disrupt metabolic pathways, leading to severe clinical manifestations. Disease models ranging from complex animal models to simple in vitro systems have provided insights into IMDs, but each has limitations.

Expert-Designed Fact Sheets and AI-Based Analysis of Patient Symptoms to Combat Diagnostic Delays in Inherited Metabolic Diseases. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT The importance of early diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) is well known, as it allows early intervention to prevent or reduce complications and improve prognosis, since many of these disorders are treatable. However, diagnosis can still be delayed, and many patients remain undiagnosed. Reducing diagnosis delays is a primary goal

Treatment of Single Patient With PMM2-Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation With Govorestat (AT-007), an Aldose Reductase Inhibitor. [PDF]

open access: yesJIMD Rep
ABSTRACT Aldose reductase inhibitors (ARI) have been identified as a potential treatment for phosphomannomutase‐2 congenital disorder of glycosylation (PMM2‐CDG), a serious condition for which no treatments are approved. We treated a single patient for 36 months 30 months of age at enrollment, under a single‐patient investigational new drug expanded ...

Towards a therapy for phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency, the defect in CDG-Ia patients. [PDF]

open access: yesBiochim Biophys Acta, 2009
Phosphomannomutase (PMM2, Mannose-6-P--> Mannose-1-P) deficiency is the most frequent glycosylation disorder affecting the N-glycosylation pathway. There is no therapy for the hundreds of patients who suffer from this disorder. This review describes previous attempts at therapeutic interventions and introduces perspectives emerging from the drawing ...

Exploring a Circulating miRNA Signature for PMM2-CDG: Initial Insights Toward Diagnosis, Stratification, and Monitoring. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT Phosphomannomutase deficiency (PMM2‐CDG) is the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation, characterized by variable early‐onset neurological (hypotonia, cerebellar syndrome, developmental delay) and multi‐organ manifestations. Although several clinical trials are ongoing, current biomarkers lack prognostic or monitoring utility ...

Mannose supplementation in PMM2-CDG

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
In this response to the letter by Witters et al., we refer to the authors' arguments regarding spontaneous enhancement of glycosylation and the claim, that mannose has no place in the treatment of PMM2-CDG.
