Glycogen Storage Disease Flashcards
all glycogen storage diseases are
AR
G6Phosphatase deficient
Von Gierke (1)
Deficiency of acid α-glucosidase (acid maltase), an enzyme responsible for breaking down glycogen within the acidic environment of lysosomes.
Lysosomal alpha 1,6 glucosidase deficiency
Pompe (2)
Lysosomal alpha 1,4
with
alpha 1,6 glucosidase deficiency
Debranching enzyme deficiency:
alpha 1,6 Glocosidase &
alpha 1,4 Transferase
Cori (3)
Myophosphorylase deficient
McArdle (5)
muscle cramps and myoglobinuria (red pee) during exercise
McArdle (5)
Severe hypoglycemia if fasting
Von Gierke (1)
Cardiomegaly, hypotonia, can’t exercise well
Pompe (2)
normal blood lactate, hypoglycemia if fasting, can lead to cardiomyopathy
Cori (3)
Impaired gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis
Von Gierke (1)
Gluconeogenesis intact. Limit Dextrin cytoplasmic accumulations
Cori (3)
Blood glucose levels normal, increase glycogen in muscle. Arrythmias.
McArdle (5)
High levels of glycogen in the liver and kidneys.
Increased blood Lactate, TG, Uric acid
Von Gierke (1)
Second wind phenomenon during exercise due to better blood flow
McArdle (5)
Hepatomegaly and Renomegaly
Von Gierke (1)
