Glycogen Storage Disease in Twins: When Two Lives Reflect One Silent Battle

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Early recognition of hepatomegaly, hypoglycemia, and elevated liver enzymes in infants is crucial for diagnosing glycogen storage disease. Liver biopsy with PAS–diastase staining provides definitive confirmation. Prompt metabolic management and regular follow‐up are essential to prevent progression of fibrosis and long‐term hepatic ...

Pravastatin Protects Against Avascular Necrosis of Femoral Head via Autophagy

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Autophagy serves as a stress response and may contribute to the pathogenesis of avascular necrosis of the femoral head induced by steroids. Statins promote angiogenesis and ameliorate endothelial functions through apoptosis inhibition and necrosis of ...

Intersubunit communication in glycogen phosphorylase influences substrate recognition at the catalytic sites

open access: yesAmino Acids
Glycogen phosphorylase (GP) is biologically active as a dimer of identical subunits, each activated by phosphorylation of the serine-14 residue. GP exists in three interconvertible forms, namely GPa (di-phosphorylated form), GPab (mono-phosphorylated ...

A novel PHKA2 mutation in a Chinese child with glycogen storage disease type IXa: a case report and literature review

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2019
Background PHKA2 gene mutations can cause liver phosphorylase kinase (PhK) deficiency, resulting in glycogen storage disease type IXa (GSD IXa). Elevated liver transaminase levels and liver enlargement are the most frequent phenotypes of GSD IXa. However,
