Late-Onset Glycogen Storage Disease Type II (Pompe's Disease) with a Novel Mutation: A Malaysian Experience
Pompe's disease (acid maltase deficiency, glycogen storage disease type II) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of lysosomal acid α-1,4-glucosidase, resulting in excessive accumulation of glycogen in the lysosomes and cytoplasm of all tissues, most notably in skeletal muscles. We present a case of adult-onset Pompe's disease with progressive proximal muscles weakness over ...
متن کاملFirst Case of Late-Onset Glycogen Storage Disease Type II in Russia with a Novel Mutation.
recessive disorder resulting from a defi ciency of acid α-glucosidase (GAA, or acid maltase), includes two main forms – infantileand late-onset glycogen storage disease type II (GSD II). Despite the age of onset and different life prognosis, Pompe disease is a single disease continuum with variable rates of disease progression and different ages of onset. The late-onset form of Pompe disease (L...
متن کاملDetection of a novel mutation in the GAA gene in an Iranian child with glycogen storage disease type II.
Glycogen storage disease II (GSDII or Pompe disease, OMIM # 232300) is an autosomal recessive hereditary lysosomal disorder. Mutations in the GAA gene usually lead to reduced acid α-glucosidase (acid maltase, GAA, OMIM *606800, EC 3.1.26.2) activity, which results in impaired degradation and subsequent accumulation of glycogen within lysosomes. We present an Iranian boy, who was diagnosed with ...
متن کاملEvidence of cardiomyocyte necrosis in glycogen storage disease type II.
Adult-onset glycogen storage disease type II (GSD-II), unlike the infantile form, is not normally associated with coexisting cardiovascular pathologies. In infantile onset GSD-II, cardiomyopathy is a common feature, and mutations in the genes for cardiac troponin T and I are likely to be involved. This case report describes a 39-year-old man with no classical risk factors for premature cardiac ...
متن کاملGlycogen storage disease (type-III).
Glycogen storage disease (GSD) type III is caused by deficiency of the enzyme amylo-1,6 glucosidase (debranching enzyme) leading to the storage of an abnormal glycogen with short outer chains called limit dextrins(l). Clinical manifestations are usually due to decreased hepatic glycogenolysis and occasionally due to a myopathy associated with an increase in muscle glycogen. We report a case of ...
