Altassan, Ruqaiah; Radenkovic, Silvia; Edmondson, Andrew C.; Barone, Rita; Brasil, Sandra; Cechova, Anna; Coman, David; Donoghue, SarahPhosphoglucomutase 1 (PGM1) deficiency is a rare genetic disorder that affects glycogen metabolism, glycolysis, and protein glycosylation. Previously known as GSD XIV, it was recently reclassified as a congenital disorder of glycosylation, PGM1-CDG. PGM1-CDG usually manifests as a multisystem disease. Most patients present as infants with cleft palate, liver function abnormalities and hypoglycemia, but some pat...
New Insights into Immunological Involvement in Congenital Disorders of Glycosyl...
Francisco, Rita; Pascoal, Carlota; Marques da Silva, Dorinda; Brasil, Sandra; Pimentel-Santos, Fernando M.; Altassan, Ruqaiah; Jaeken, JaakCongenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are rare diseases with variable phenotypes and severity. Immunological involvement remains a largely uncharted topic in CDG, mainly due to lack of robust data. To better characterize immune-related manifestations’ prevalence, relevance, and quality-of-life (QoL) impact, we developed electronic questionnaires targeting (1) CDG patients and (2) the general “healthy” pop...
