glycogen storage disease IXd — Definition
Glikojen Depo Hastalığı Tip IXd / glycogen storage disease IXd
Glicogen Depot disease type IXd is a rare metabolic disease, which occurs as a result of mutations in the gene, which code one of the subunits of phosphorusylase kinase enzyme. This lack of enzyme leads to abnormal glycogen accumulation by disrupting the conversion of glucose in the liver and muscles. Clinically often manifests itself with liver growth (hepatomegaly), growth retardation and hypoglycemia during childhood. Muscle weakness and exercise intolerance are also common findings.
Disease Definition
🔬 Disease Definition
Glikojen depo hastalığı tip IXd, fosforilaz kinaz (PhK) enziminin beta alt birimindeki mutasyonlar nedeniyle oluşan, otozomal resesif geçişli bir metabolik hastalıktır. Karaciğer ve kaslarda glikojen birikimi ile karakterizedir.
🧬 Causes & Risk Factors
PHKB genindeki mutasyonlar, fosforilaz kinaz enziminin beta alt biriminin işlevini bozarak glikojen yıkımını engeller.
🩺 Symptoms & Signs
Hepatomegali, hipoglisemi, büyüme geriliği, kas güçsüzlüğü, egzersiz intoleransı, miyopati ve nadiren kardiyomiyopati.
📋 Diagnostic Methods
Klinik değerlendirme, karaciğer ve kas biyopsisi (glikojen birikimi ve düşük PhK aktivitesi), genetik test (PHKB gen mutasyonları).
💊 Treatment Options
Sık ve karbonhidratça zengin beslenme, gece boyunca mısır nişastası takviyesi, hipoglisemiden kaçınma, egzersiz toleransını artırmak için düzenli hafif aktivite.
⚠️ Complications
Hipoglisemik nöbetler, büyüme geriliği, karaciğer fibrozu, kas atrofisi, egzersiz intoleransı.
