On the Differing Appearance of Intranuclear and Cytoplasmic Glycogen in Liver Cells in Glycogen Storage Disease
نویسندگان
چکیده
Wi th new methods of prepar ing th in sections for electron microscopy, glycogen has been identified in the cytoplasm of liver cells as dense particles of various sizes (3, 4, 7, 9). Glycogen does not usually occur within the nucleus, bu t it has been described there in a variety of pathological conditions (1). This report concerns the appearance of glycogen in the nucleus of liver cells from a pa t ien t with glycogen storage disease, type 11 (yon Gierke's disease).

Objective(s): Stem cell therapy is believed to be as a promising treatment strategy for tissue repair and regeneration. The plasticity specification of the adult stem cells, such as MSCs, has enabled that these cells to be used in the treatment of a broad spectrum of diseases like liver disorders. In this study, the production of urea and Albumin (Alb), glycogen storage, and expression of some ...

Objective(s) PDE3 has a functional role in insulin secretion and action. We investigated the metabolic effects of new synthetic PDE3 inhibitors (mc1, mc2, mc5 and mc6), on mice and hyperglycemic rat. Materials and Methods The test compound or solvent was injected subcutaneously to mice, for 7 days. On day 8, blood and liver samples were obtained. In hyperglycemic rat, 0.5 g/kg glucose with o...

Pompe disease or type II glycogen storage disease is a rare autosomal hereditary disease. The prevalence of the disease is about 1 in 40,000 to 1 in 300,000 population. It usually occurs as a result of glycogen accretion following acid maltase deficiency. The current treatment is enzyme replacement therapy, which may slow down the disease progression. Sometimes, the clinical presentation can be...

Background and Purpose: Çyproheptadine (ÇYP) is an antihistaminic and antiserotonine agent with specific property which differentiates it from the other antihistaminics and antiserotonic agent. The appetite stimulating effect of (ÇYP) is well documented in man but its effects on the blood glucose and liver glycogen are not the same. Hence this study was conducted to determine the effects o...
متن کاملNew aspect of hepatic nuclear glycogenosis in diabetes.
Three cases of nuclear glycogenosis in the liver of diabetic patients have been studied by electron microscopy. In addition to the glycogen deposits described by others, an unusual intranuclear glycogen-filled body was found in all three cases. This body occurred alone or in close contact with the major glycogen deposit.
