Prospective exploratory muscle biopsy, imaging, and functional assessment in patients with late-onset Pompe disease treated with alglucosidase alfa: The EMBASSY Study [PDF]
Background Late-onset Pompe disease is characterized by progressive skeletal myopathy followed by respiratory muscle weakness, typically leading to loss of ambulation and respiratory failure.

. 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 ...

Enzyme-replacement Therapy in Classic Infantile Pompe Disease: Long-term outcome, dosing and the role of antibodies [PDF]
__Abstract__ The introduction of enzyme-replacement therapy (ERT) in 2006 has dramatically increased the interest in Pompe disease. In the three decades following the discovery of acid a-glucosidase deficiency as cause of the disease by H.G. Hers in

Perioperative management of children with glycogen storage disease type II-Pompe disease [PDF]
Background: Pompe disease is a rare metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme acid α-glucosidase. Glycogen accumulation damages skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles, causing a progressive and debilitating muscle weakness and ...
