Lessons Learned from Pompe Disease Newborn Screening and Follow-up
In 2015, Pompe disease became the first lysosomal storage disorder to be recommended for universal newborn screening by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

. Pompe disease is a rare, progressive disease, the basis of which is the pathogenesis of excessive accumulation of glycogen by lysosomes due to mutation of the GAA gene and loss of activity of the enzyme acidic α-glucosidase. Preferred accumulation of glycogen is noted in cross-linked muscles, but can vary in degrees in other organs and tissues ...

Hypothyroidism in late-onset Pompe disease
Purpose: In Pompe disease, a deficiency of acid α-glucosidase enzyme activity leads to pathologic accumulation of glycogen in tissues. Phenotype heterogeneity in Pompe includes an infantile form and late-onset forms (juvenile- and adult-onset forms ...

Public support for neonatal screening for Pompe disease, a broad-phenotype condition
Background Neonatal screening for Pompe disease has been introduced in Taiwan and a few U.S. states, while other jurisdictions including some European countries are piloting or considering this screening. First-tier screening flags both classic infantile

Three-dimensional tissue-engineered human skeletal muscle model of Pompe disease
Wang et al. describe the development of a 3D in vitro model of human skeletal muscle that recapitulates the pathophysiology of Pompe disease. They further define a Pompe disease-specific transcriptional signature, confirm its presence in the Pompe ...

Recommendations for Infantile-Onset and Late-Onset Pompe Disease: An Iranian Consensus
Background: Pompe disease, also denoted as acid maltase or acid α-glucosidase deficiency or glycogen storage disease type II, is a rare, autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder.
