Newborn Screening for Pompe Disease [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Neonatal Screening, 2020
Glycogen storage disease type II (also known as Pompe disease (PD)) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by defects in α-glucosidase (AαGlu), resulting in lysosomal glycogen accumulation in skeletal and heart muscles. Accumulation and tissue damage rates depend on residual enzyme activity.

Health-Related Quality of Life and Fatigue in Children with Pompe Disease

open access: yesJournal of Pediatrics: Clinical Practice
Objective: Pompe disease is an inheritable metabolic myopathy caused by the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme acid-⍺-glucosidase. The aim of this study was to investigate self-reported and parent-reported health related quality of life (HR-QOL) and ...

Infantile Pompe disease: Clinical picture, diagnosis, and treatment

open access: yesНервно-мышечные болезни, 2015
Pompe disease is a rare inherited disease that belongs to lysosomal accumulation diseases and can be considered as cardiac glycogenosistype II, as well as a severe neuromuscular disease or metabolic myopathy.

Using Decision Analysis to Support Newborn Screening Policy Decisions: A Case Study for Pompe Disease

open access: yesMDM Policy & Practice, 2018

A nonsense mutation in the acid α-glucosidase gene causes Pompe disease in Finnish and Swedish Lapphunds.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Pompe disease is a recessively inherited and often fatal disorder caused by the deficiency of acid α-glucosidase, an enzyme encoded by the GAA gene and needed to break down glycogen in lysosomes.

Infantile Pompe disease with intrauterine onset: a case report and literature review

open access: yesItalian Journal of Pediatrics, 2022
Background Pompe disease is a rare autosomal recessive disease. Acid alpha−glucosidase (GAA) deficiency leads to glycogen storage in lysosomes, causing skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle lesions.

Correction of oxidative stress enhances enzyme replacement therapy in Pompe disease

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2021
Pompe disease is a metabolic myopathy due to acid alpha‐glucosidase deficiency. In addition to glycogen storage, secondary dysregulation of cellular functions, such as autophagy and oxidative stress, contributes to the disease pathophysiology.

A Newborn Screening, Presymptomatically Identified Infant With Late-Onset Pompe Disease: Case Report, Parental Experience, and Recommendations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Neonatal Screening, 2020
Pompe disease is an inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) enzyme deficiency, resulting in muscle and neuron intralysosomal glycogen storage.

Pompe disease gene therapy [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2011
Pompe disease is an autosomal recessive metabolic myopathy caused by the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase and results in cellular lysosomal and cytoplasmic glycogen accumulation. A wide spectrum of disease exists from hypotonia and severe cardiac hypertrophy in the first few months of life due to severe mutations to a milder ...
