Bleeding Disorders in Children With Genetic Diseases: A Narrative Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aim The lack of data on bleeding risk assessment in children with genetic diseases is concerning given their increased care needs and risk of haemorrhagic complications compared to the general population. Identification of haemostatic disorders is crucial for implementing preventive measures and mitigating bleeding risk.

Dietary mannose supplementation in phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) [PDF]
Background PMM2-CDG (CDG-Ia) is the most frequent N-glycosylation disorder. While supplying mannose to PMM2-deficient fibroblasts corrects the altered N-glycosylation in vitro, short term therapeutic approaches with mannose supplementation in PMM2-CDG ...

New and potential strategies for the treatment of PMM2-CDG
Mutations in the PMM2 gene cause phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2; MIM# 212065), which manifests as a congenital disorder of glycosylation (PMM2-CDG). Mutant PMM2 leads to the reduced conversion of Man-6-P to Man-1-P, which results in low concentrations of guanosine 5'-diphospho-D-mannose, a nucleotide-activated sugar essential for the ...

PMM2‐CDG caused by uniparental disomy: Case report and literature review
Background Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2‐CDG) affects glycosylation pathways such as the N‐glycosylation pathway, resulting in loss of function of multiple proteins.

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.

Proteostasis regulators as potential rescuers of PMM2 activity
Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) is the most common N-glycosylation disorder. To date there is no treatment. Following the identification of a number of destabilizing pathogenic variants, our group suggested PMM2-CDG to be a conformational disease.

Phosphomannomutase 2-congenital disorder of glycosylation: exploring the role of N-glycosylation on the endocrine axes [PDF]
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a heterogeneous group of inborn errors of metabolism caused by impaired protein glycosylation. Among these, PMM2-CDG, caused by defective phosphomannomutase 2 activity and affecting protein N-glycosylation,

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.

Polymorphic variants of ABCA1, PMM2, and ARHGEF12 genes and the risk of glaucoma in an Iranian population [PDF]
AIM: To examine whether rs2472493 and rs248032 in the ABCA1 gene, rs3785176 in the PMM2 gene, and rs11827818 in the ARHGEF12 gene contribute to primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) in an Iranian population. METHODS: Totally 82 POAG patients and 172 healthy

Unsuccessful intravenous D-mannose treatment in PMM2-CDG [PDF]
Background PMM2-CDG (Phosphomannomutase 2 - Congenital disorder of glycosylation-Ia; CDG-Ia) is the most common glycosylation defect, often presenting as a severe multisystem disorder that can be fatal within the first years of life.
