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.

Identification through exome sequencing of the first PMM2-CDG individual of Mexican mestizo origin [PDF]
Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG) are scarcely reported from Latin America. We here report on a Mexican mestizo with a multi-systemic syndrome including neurological involvement and a type I transferrin (Tf) isoelectric focusing (IEF) pattern ...

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.

The development of end stage renal disease in two patients with PMM2‐CDG [PDF]
We report two patients with PMM2‐CDG who developed end stage renal disease (ESRD). Renal abnormalities of clinical significance have only been reported in about 6% of patients with PMM2‐CDG and have rarely been reported as the cause of death.

Factor XII in PMM2-CDG patients: role of N-glycosylation in the secretion and function of the first element of the contact pathway [PDF]
Background Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are rare diseases with impaired glycosylation and multiorgan disfunction, including hemostatic and inflammatory disorders.

Non-functional alternative splicing caused by a Latino pathogenic variant in a case of PMM2-CDG [PDF]
We report on a Mexican mestizo with a multisystemic syndrome including neurological involvement and a type I serum transferrin isoelectric focusing (Tf IEF) pattern.

Lipo-Glc-1,6-P<sub>2</sub>: A Bioprecursor Prodrug for Phosphomannomutase-2 Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Phosphomannomutase‐2 (PMM2) deficiency leads to the prominent Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation (CDG), a rare disease currently lacking effective treatment options. The complete absence of PMM2 activity is incompatible with life, and all patients carry at least one missense destabilising variant that allows residual enzymatic function. This

Fatal outcome after heart surgery in PMM2-CDG due to a rare homozygous gene variant with double effects [PDF]
Variants in Phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) lead to PMM2-CDG, the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). We here describe the disease course of a ten-month old patient who presented with the classical PMM2-CDG symptoms as cerebellar ...

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