Mapping the diagnostic odyssey of congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG): insights from the community [PDF]
Background Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a group of rare metabolic diseases with heterogeneous presentations, leading to substantial diagnostic challenges, which are poorly understood.

Genotype-Phenotype Correlations in PMM2-CDG. [PDF]
PMM2-CDG is a rare disease, causing hypoglycosylation of multiple proteins, hence preventing full functionality. So far, no direct genotype–phenotype correlations have been identified. We carried out a retrospective cohort study on 26 PMM2-CDG patients.

PMM2-CDG and nephrotic syndrome: A case report. [PDF]
CDG are a group of diseases altering the glycosylation process. Enzymes involved have ubiquitous distribution with systemic involvement and high phenotypic variability. We report the case of a girl with central hypotonia, epilepsy and severe psychomotor delay diagnosed with phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) after presenting with nephrotic ...

A quantitative assessment of the evolution of cerebellar syndrome in children with phosphomannomutase-deficiency (PMM2-CDG) [PDF]
Background We aim to delineate the progression of cerebellar syndrome in children with phosphomannomutase-deficiency (PMM2-CDG) using the International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale (ICARS).

Interplay of Impaired Cellular Bioenergetics and Autophagy in PMM2-CDG. [PDF]
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) and mitochondrial disorders are multisystem disorders with overlapping symptomatology. Pathogenic variants in the PMM2 gene lead to abnormal N-linked glycosylation. This disruption in glycosylation can induce endoplasmic reticulum stress, contributing to the disease pathology.

Sorbitol Is a Severity Biomarker for PMM2-CDG with Therapeutic Implications. [PDF]
ObjectiveEpalrestat, an aldose reductase inhibitor increases phosphomannomutase (PMM) enzyme activity in a PMM2‐congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) worm model. Epalrestat also decreases sorbitol level in diabetic neuropathy. We evaluated the genetic, biochemical, and clinical characteristics, including the Nijmegen Progression CDG Rating Scale (

Genotype/Phenotype Relationship: Lessons From 137 Patients With PMM2-CDG. [PDF]
We report on the largest single dataset of patients with PMM2‐CDG enrolled in an ongoing international, multicenter natural history study collecting genetic, clinical, and biological information to evaluate similarities with previous studies, report on novel findings, and, additionally, examine potential genotype/phenotype correlations.
