Evidence 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 کاملPulmonary arterial hypertension and type-I glycogen-storage disease: the serotonin hypothesis.
A case of pulmonary arterial hypertension in a patient with type-Ia glycogen-storage disease, a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of glucose-6-phosphatase is reported in this study. It has been suggested that the occurrence of pulmonary arterial hypertension in type-Ia glycogen-storage disease could be due to an abnormal production of vasoconstrictive amines such as serot...
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 ...
متن کاملType V glycogen storage disease.
We describe three children with type V glycogen storage disease, who were reluctant to climb hills. We suggest that this condition, usually described as being of adult onset, can often be diagnosed in childhood.
متن کاملGlycogen storage disease type IV, amylopectinosis.
Classification of the glycogen storage diseases according to the underlying enzyme defect has added considerably to our understanding of this group of diseases. Of the 6 types in which the biochemical abnormality has been characterized, the least common appears to be type IV, amylopectin-osis. The first case was described by Andersen in 1952, and the glycogen present in the liver and other orga...
