A comprehensive update of genotype–phenotype correlations in PMM2-CDG: insights from molecular and structural analyses [PDF]
PMM2-CDG (phosphomannomutase 2-deficiency) is the most prevalent N-glycosylation disorder and results from impairments of PMM2 activity. This disease presents a large variety of pathogenic variants, which cause a wide phenotypical spectrum.

PMM2-CDG T237M Mutation in a Patient with Cerebral Palsy-Like Phenotypes Reported from South India [PDF]
Congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG) is an autosomal recessively inherited disorder. Hypotonia, stroke-like episodes, and peripheral neuropathy are also associated with the condition that typically develops during infancy.

Repurposing the aldose reductase inhibitor and diabetic neuropathy drug epalrestat for the congenital disorder of glycosylation PMM2-CDG [PDF]
Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency, or PMM2-CDG, is the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation and affects over 1000 patients globally. There are no approved drugs that treat the symptoms or root cause of PMM2-CDG.

Targeted metabolomic evaluation of peripheral blood mononucleated cells from patients with PMM2-CDG [PDF]
Phosphomannomutase-2 (PMM2) deficiency represents the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). Currently, little is known about cell metabolic alterations occurring in these patients.

Spontaneous improvement of carbohydrate-deficient transferrin in PMM2-CDG without mannose observed in CDG natural history study [PDF]
A recent report on long-term dietary mannose supplementation in phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) claimed improved glycosylation and called for double-blind randomized study of the dietary supplement in PMM2-CDG patients.

Patient-reported outcomes and quality of life in PMM2-CDG
Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) measure important aspects of disease burden, however they have received limited attention in the care of patients with Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG). We evaluated the PROs and correlation between clinical disease severity scoring and reported quality of life (QoL) in a PMM2-CDG patient cohort.

Hypoglycemia in CDG patients due to PMM2 mutations: Follow up on hyperinsulinemic patients
Background Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2‐CDG) is the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). Hypoglycemia has been reported in various CDG including PMM2‐CDG.

Untangling adaptive functioning of PMM2-CDG across age and its impact on parental stress: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
Phosphomannomutase deficiency (PMM2-CDG) leads to cerebellar atrophy with ataxia, dysmetria, and intellectual deficits. Despite advances in therapy, the cognitive and adaptive profile remains unknown.
