Early Initiation of Enzyme Replacement Therapy in Infantile Onset Pompe Disease Improves Cardiac Outcomes: A Longitudinal Analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The objective of this study is to evaluate whether early enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) initiation is associated with a lower incidence of echocardiogram abnormalities and cardiac conduction abnormalities compared to later ERT initiation.

Late-onset Pompe disease - literature review and summary of current knowledge
Introduction: Pompe disease is a glycogen storage disorder caused by the deficient activity of the lysosomal enzyme acid α-glucosidase (GAA). Mutations in the GAA gene lead to the accumulation of glycogen in different organs.

Myostatin and insulin-like growth factor I: potential therapeutic biomarkers for pompe disease. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Myostatin and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) are serum markers for muscle growth and regeneration. However, their value in the clinical monitoring of Pompe disease - a muscle glycogen storage disease - is not known.

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 ...

ALGLUCOSIDASE ALFA — A NEW STAGE IN THE THERAPY OF INFANTILE POMPE DISEASE
Pompe disease is a rare severe hereditary disease caused by excessive glycogen storage in organs and target tissues due to the acid α-glucosidase gene mutation.
