Anthropometric Phenotype of Patients with PMM2-CDG [PDF]
Background: Growth failure is commonly reported in children with PMM2-CDG. The aim of the study was to delineate the longitudinal anthropometric phenotype of patients with PMM2-CDG and attempt to find some correlations between the genotype and ...

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 ...

Platelet Membrane Glycoprofiling in a PMM2-CDG Patient [PDF]
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are metabolic hereditary diseases caused by defects in the synthesis of glycoconjugates. CDG have been described in sugar-nucleotide biosynthesis and transporter, glycosyltransferases, vesicular transport, as ...

Clinical and radiological correlates of activities of daily living in cerebellar atrophy caused by PMM2 mutations (PMM2-CDG) [PDF]
We aimed to identify clinical, molecular and radiological correlates of activities of daily living (ADL) in patients with cerebellar atrophy caused by PMM2 mutations (PMM2-CDG), the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation.

The Effects of PMM2-CDG-Causing Mutations on the Folding, Activity, and Stability of the PMM2 Protein [PDF]
© 2015 WILEY PERIODICALS, INC.. Congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ia (PMM2-CDG), the most common form of CDG, is caused by mutations in the PMM2 gene that reduce phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) activity. No curative treatment is available.

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.

Renal involvement in PMM2-CDG, a mini-review [PDF]
Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) is the most common N-linked glycosylation disorder. The majority of patients present with a multisystem phenotype, including central nervous system involvement, hepatopathy, gastrointestinal and cardiac symptoms,

Mannose supplementation in PMM2-CDG [PDF]
In this response to the letter by Witters et al., we refer to the authors' arguments regarding spontaneous enhancement of glycosylation and the claim, that mannose has no place in the treatment of PMM2-CDG.
