Organoids for Metabolic Disease Modeling
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.

Background The congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a heterogeneous group of rare metabolic diseases with multi-system involvement. The liver phenotype of CDG varies not only according to the specific disorder, but also from patient to patient.

ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) encompass a diverse and expanding group of rare diseases caused by genetic disruptions mainly in metabolic enzymes and transporters. Clinical diagnosis of IMDs presents significant challenges due to phenotypic heterogeneity, nonspecific symptoms, and the limited scope of current targeted biochemical assays ...

GMPPB‐CDG Results in Lysosomal Dysfunction and Acid Alpha‐Glucosidase Deficiency
ABSTRACT GDP‐mannose pyrophosphorylase B (GMPPB) deficiency is a congenital disorder of glycosylation due to pathogenic variants of the GMPPB gene. GMPPB catalyzes GDP‐mannose synthesis, an early step in multiple glycosylation pathways, including N‐glycosylation, O‐mannosylation, C‐mannosylation, and glycosylphosphatidylinositol‐anchor formation.

GPI-anchor and GPI-anchored protein expression in PMM2-CDG patients [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundMutations inPMM2impair phosphomannomutase-2 activity and cause the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation, PMM2-CDG. Mannose-1-phosphate, that is deficient in this disorder, is also implicated in the biosynthesis of glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchors.ObjectiveTo evaluate whether GPI-anchor and GPI-anchored ...

Novel insights into biological and clinical research of Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation through a people-centric approach [PDF]
Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG) are a large family of rare inherited metabolic diseases caused by defects in the cellular machinery that assembles, trims and attaches glycans to proteins and lipids.

Beneficial effects of Glc-1,6-P2 modulation on mutant phosphomannomutase-2 [PDF]
: The metabolite Glucose-1,6-bisphosphate (Glc-1,6-P2) plays a vital role in human metabolism, and is a crucial activator and stabilizer for phosphomannomutase-2 (PMM2) - mutations within this protein propagate the most common congenital disorder of ...
