Urate production and excretion were studied in heterozygous parents of a child with glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency. Both parents demonstrated glucose-6-phosphatase concentrations in platelets intermediate between those in the homozygote and the normal. The miscible urate pool and turnover rate,
Abnormal lipid transport is one of the more severe pathophysiological manifestations of glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency (glycogen storage disease, type I: GSD-I). To characterize further lipoprotein abnormalities in this inborn error of glycogen metabolism, we determined the levels of serum
The essential biochemical characteristic of von Gierke's disease is an inborn glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency and glycogen storage in the liver and kidney. This expresses itself morphometrically as an increased volume of glycogen per unit volume of the hepatocellular cytoplasm. Since
Carbohydrates with digestion characteristics between those of lente uncooked starches and rapidly digestible oligosaccharides were administered in a dose of 1.5 g/kg body weight to five patients with glycogenosis from glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency. Postprandial duration of normoglycemia and
The metabolic disturbances in glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency (von Gierke's disease) are the consequence of hypoglycemia, occurring mostly during the night. Continuous provision of glucose is the aim of every recently introduced treatment procedure. We studied the influence of continuous ambulatory
Glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency (G6P deficiency), or glycogen storage disease type I (GSDI), is a group of inherited metabolic diseases, including types Ia and Ib, characterized by poor tolerance to fasting, growth retardation and hepatomegaly resulting from accumulation of glycogen and fat in the
An adult woman with hypoglycemia, hyperlactatemia, hyperuricemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hyperketonemia and inability to make new glucose from galactose, fructose, glycerol and alanine was found to have no hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase and deficient fructose-1,6-diphosphatase. Nonautonomous
Liver metabolism of two patients (aged 15 and 23 yr) was studied by P-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 1.9 tesla. The P-31 spectra of liver showed the resonances of phosphomonoesters (including sugar phosphates), inorganic phosphate (Pi), phosphodiesters (e.g. glycerophosphorylcholine,
Von Gierke disease is occasionally complicated by hepatic adenomas (HAs) causing great concern owing to the current difficulties in monitoring them regarding malignant transformation. Orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) is proposed as a therapeutic tool when multiple HAs and poor metabolic
Very recently we have proposed [Hemrika et al. (1997) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94, 2145-2149] that the active site of the vanadate-containing chloroperoxidase from the fungus Curvularia inaequalis, of which the tertiary structure is known, is structurally very similar to that of the membrane-bound
The G6PC3 gene encodes the ubiquitously expressed glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme (G-6-Pase β or G-6-Pase 3 or G6PC3). Bi-allelic G6PC3 mutations cause a multi-system autosomal recessive disorder of G6PC3 deficiency (also called severe congenital neutropenia type 4, MIM 612541). To date, at least 57
OBJECTIVE
Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase α, G6PC) deficiency, also known as von Gierke's disease or GSDIa, is the most common glycogen storage disorder. It is characterized by a decreased ability of the liver to convert glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) to glucose leading to glycogen and lipid
