Revisiting the immunopathology of congenital disorders of glycosylation: an updated review. Front Immunol 2024; 15:1350101. [PMID: 38550576 PMCID: PMC10972870 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1350101] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Glycosylation is a critical post-translational modification that plays a pivotal role in several biological processes, such as the immune response. Alterations in glycosylation can modulate the course of various pathologies, such as the case of congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG), a group of more than 160 rare and complex genetic diseases. Although the link between glycosylation and immune dysfunction has already been recognized, the immune involvement in most CDG remains largely unexplored and poorly understood. In this study, we provide an update on the immune dysfunction and clinical manifestations of the 12 CDG with major immune involvement, organized into 6 categories of inborn errors of immunity according to the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS). The immune involvement in phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2)-CDG - the most frequent CDG - was comprehensively reviewed, highlighting a higher prevalence of immune issues during infancy and childhood and in R141H-bearing genotypes. Finally, using PMM2-CDG as a model, we point to links between abnormal glycosylation patterns in host cells and possibly favored interactions with microorganisms that may explain the higher susceptibility to infection. Further characterizing immunopathology and unusual host-pathogen adhesion in CDG can not only improve immunological standards of care but also pave the way for innovative preventive measures and targeted glycan-based therapies that may improve quality of life for people living with CDG.

Association between acute complications in PMM2-CDG patients and haemostasis anomalies: Data from a multicentric study and suggestions for acute management. Mol Genet Metab 2023; 140:107674. [PMID: 37542768 DOI: 10.1016/j.ymgme.2023.107674] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/29/2023] [Indexed: 08/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with PMM2-CDG develop acute events (stroke-like episodes (SLEs), thromboses, haemorrhages, seizures, migraines) associated with both clotting factors (factor XI) and coagulation inhibitors (antithrombin, protein C and protein S) deficiencies. The aim of the study was to correlate acute events to haemostasis and propose practical guidelines. METHODS In this multicentric retrospective study, we evaluated clinical, radiological, haemostasis and electroencephalography data for PMM2-CDG patients hospitalized for acute events. Cerebral events were classified as thrombosis, haemorrhage, SLE, or "stroke mimic" (SM: normal brain imaging or evoking a migraine). RESULTS Thirteen patients had a total of 31 acute episodes: 27 cerebral events with 7 SLEs, 4 venous thromboses, 4 haemorrhages (3 associated with thrombosis), 15 SMs at a mean age of 7.7 years; 4 non-cerebral thromboses, one of which included bleeding. A trigger was frequently involved (infection, head trauma). Although sometimes normal at baseline state, factor XI, antithrombin and protein C levels decreased during these episodes. No correlation between haemostasis anomalies and type of acute event was found. DISCUSSION Acute events in PMM2-CDG are not negligible and are associated with haemostasis anomalies. An emergency protocol is proposed for their prevention and treatment (https://www.filiere-g2m.fr/urgences). For cerebral events, brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging with perfusion weight imaging and diffusion sequences, electroencephalogram and haemostasis protein levels guide the treatment: anticoagulation, antithrombin or fresh frozen plasma supplementation, antiepileptic therapy. Preventing bleeding and thrombosis is required in cases of surgery, prolonged immobilization, hormone replacement therapy. CONCLUSION Acute events in PMM2-CDG are associated with abnormal haemostasis, requiring practical guidance.

Coagulation abnormalities in a prospective cohort of 50 patients with PMM2-congenital disorder of glycosylation. Mol Genet Metab 2023; 139:107606. [PMID: 37224763 PMCID: PMC10530657 DOI: 10.1016/j.ymgme.2023.107606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Revised: 05/07/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Given the lack of reliable data on the prevalence of bleeding abnormalities and thrombotic episodes in PMM2-CDG patients, and whether coagulation abnormalities change over time, we prospectively collected and reviewed natural history data. Patients with PMM2-CDG often have abnormal coagulation studies due to glycosylation abnormalities but the frequency of complications resulting from these has not been prospectively studied. METHODS We studied fifty individuals enrolled in the Frontiers in Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation Consortium (FCDGC) natural history study with molecularly confirmed diagnosis of PMM2-CDG. We collected data on prothrombin time (PT), international normalized ratio (INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), platelets, factor IX activity (FIX), factor XI activity (FXI), protein C activity (PC), protein S activity (PS) and antithrombin activity (AT). RESULTS Prothrombotic and antithrombotic factor activities were frequently abnormal in PMM2-CDG patients, including AT, PC, PT, INR, and FXI. AT deficiency was the most common abnormality in 83.3% of patients. AT activity was below 50% in 62.5% of all patients (normal range 80-130%). Interestingly, 16% of the cohort experienced symptoms of spontaneous bleeding and 10% had thrombosis. Stroke-like episodes (SLE) were reported in 18% of patients in our cohort. Based on the linear growth models, on average, patients did not show significant change in AT (n = 48; t(23.8) = 1.75, p = 0.09), FIX (n = 36; t(61) = 1.60, p = 0.12), FXI (n = 39; t(22.8) = 1.88, p = 0.07), PS (n = 25; t(28.8) = 1.08, p = 0.29), PC (n = 38; t(68) = 1.61, p = 0.11), INR (n = 44; t(184) = -1.06, p = 0.29), or PT (n = 43; t(192) = -0.69, p = 0.49) over time. AT activity positively correlated with FIX activity. PS activity was significantly lower in males. CONCLUSION Based on our natural history data and previous literature, we conclude that caution should be exercised when the AT levels are lower than 65%, as most thrombotic events occur in patients with AT below this level. All five, male PMM2-CDG patients in our cohort who developed thrombosis had abnormal AT levels, ranging between 19% and 63%. Thrombosis was associated with infection in all cases. We did not find significant change in AT levels over time. Several PMM2-CDG patients had an increased bleeding tendency. More long-term follow-up is necessary on coagulation abnormalities and the associated clinical symptoms to provide guidelines for therapy, patient management, and appropriate counseling. SYNOPSIS Most PMM2-CDG patients display chronic coagulation abnormalities without significant improvement, associated with a frequency of 16% clinical bleeding abnormalities, and 10% thrombotic episodes in patients with severe antithrombin deficiency.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coagulation factors, anticoagulants, and fibrinolytic proteins are important for hemostasis, and mutations affecting these proteins causes some rare inherited bleeding disorders that are particularly challenging to diagnose. AIMS This review provides current information on rare inherited bleeding disorders that are difficult to diagnose. MATERIAL & METHODS A review of the literature was conducted for up to date information on rare and difficult to diagnose bleeding disorders. RESULTS Some rare bleeding disorders cause an inherited deficiency of multiple coagulation factors (F), such as combined FV and FVIII deficiency and familial vitamin K-dependent clotting factor deficiency. Additionally, congenital disorders of glycosylation can affect a variety of procoagulant and anticoagulant proteins and also platelets. Some bleeding disorders reflect mutations with unique impairments in the procoagulant/anticoagulant balance, including those caused by F5 mutations that secondarily increase the plasma levels of tissue factor pathway inhibitor as well as THBD mutations that increase functional thrombomodulin in plasma or cause a consumptive coagulopathy due to thrombomodulin deficiency. Some bleeding disorders accelerate fibrinolysis due to loss-of-function mutations in SERPINE1 and SERPINF2 or in the case of Quebec platelet disorder, a duplication mutation that rewires PLAU and selectively increases expression in megakaryocytes, resulting in a unique platelet-dependent gain-of-function defect in fibrinolysis. DISCUSSION Current information on rare and difficult to diagnose bleeding disorders indicates they have unique clinical and laboratory features, and pathogenic characteristics to consider for diagnostic evaluation. CONCLUSION Laboratories and clinicians should consider rare inherited disorders, and difficult to diagnose conditions, in their strategy for diagnosing bleeding disorders.

Abstract
Phosphomannomutase-2-congenital disorder of glycosylation (PMM2-CDG) is the most common CDG and presents with highly variable features ranging from isolated neurologic involvement to severe multi-organ dysfunction. Liver abnormalities occur in in almost all patients and frequently include hepatomegaly and elevated aminotransferases, although only a minority of patients develop progressive hepatic fibrosis and liver failure. No curative therapies are currently available for PMM2-CDG, although investigation into several novel therapies is ongoing. We report the first successful liver transplantation in a 4-year-old patient with PMM2-CDG. Over a 3-year follow-up period, she demonstrated improved growth and neurocognitive development and complete normalization of liver enzymes, coagulation parameters, and carbohydrate-deficient transferrin profile, but persistently abnormal IgG glycosylation and recurrent upper airway infections that did not require hospitalization. Liver transplant should be considered as a treatment option for PMM2-CDG patients with end-stage liver disease, however these patients may be at increased risk for recurrent bacterial infections post-transplant.

Abstract
Objective Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) is a disorder of protein N-glycosylation with a wide clinical spectrum. Hypoglycemia is rarely reported in PMM2-CDG. In this study, we evaluated cause, treatment options and outcomes in cases with hypoglycemia in the course of PMM2-CDG. Methods Clinical records of patients followed with PMM2-CDG within the last two decades were reviewed. Medical data of patients with hypoglycemia were evaluated in more detail. Demographic and clinical findings, organ involvement and laboratory investigations at time of hypoglycemia were recorded. Time of first attack of hypoglycemia, cause, treatment modalities, duration of hypoglycemia (permanent/transient), and duration of treatment, as well as outcome were also recorded. Other published cases with PMM2-CDG and hypoglycemia are also reviewed in order to elucidate characteristics as well as pathophysiology of hypoglycemia. Results Nine patients with PMM2-CDG were reviewed, and hypoglycemia was present in three cases. All three had hyperinsulinism as the cause of hypoglycemia. In the first two cases reported here, serum insulin level concurrent with hypoglycemic episodes was elevated, and glucose response was exaggerated during glucagon test, favoring hyperinsulinism. However, in the third case, the serum insulin level at time of hypoglycemia was not so high but hypoglycemia responded well to diazoxide. Hyperinsulinism was permanent in two of these three cases. No genotype-phenotype correlation was observed with respect to hyperinsulinism. Conclusion The main cause of hypoglycemia in PMM2-CDG appears to be hyperinsulinism. Although insulin levels at the time of hypoglycemia may not be very high, hypoglycemia in patients with PMM2 responds well to diazoxide.

Phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) deficiency is the most prevalent congenital disorder of glycosylation. It is associated with coagulopathy, including protein C deficiency. Since all components of the anticoagulant and cytoprotective protein C system are glycosylated, we sought to investigate the impact of an N-glycosylation deficiency on this system as a whole. To this end, we developed a PMM2 knockdown model in the brain endothelial cell line hCMEC/D3. The resulting PMM2low cells were less able to generate activated protein C (APC), due to lower surface expression of thrombomodulin and endothelial protein C receptor. The low protein levels were due to downregulated transcription of the corresponding genes (THBD and PROCR, respectively), which itself was related to downregulation of transcription regulators Krüppel-like factors 2 and 4 and forkhead box C2. PMM2 knockdown was also associated with impaired integrity of the endothelial cell monolayer-partly due to an alteration in the structure of VE-cadherin in adherens junctions. The expression of protease-activated receptor 1 (involved in the cytoprotective effects of APC on the endothelium) was not affected by PMM2 knockdown. Thrombin stimulation induced hyperpermeability in PMM2low cells. However, pretreatment of cells with APC before thrombin simulation was still associated with a barrier-protecting effect. Taken as a whole, our results show that the partial loss of PMM2 in hCMEC/D3 cells is associated with impaired activation of protein C and a relative increase in barrier permeability.

Abstract
Inborn errors of metabolism causing stroke (ischemic or haemorrhagic) or stroke-like episodes (e.g., that are also called "metabolic strokes" and include acute brain lesions not related with alterations of blood flow) cover a wide range of diseases in which acute metabolic decompensations after trigger events (e.g., fever, dehydration, sepsis etc.) may have a variable frequency. The early diagnosis of these conditions is essential because, despite their rarity, effective symptomatic treatments may be available for acute settings (e.g., arginine for Mitochondrial myopathy, Encephalopathy, Lactic Acidosis, and Stroke-like episodes- MELAS) while in other cases disease modifying therapies may be useful to prevent stroke occurrence, recurrence, or relapse (e.g., Fabry disease). The detection of a non-vascular distribution of lesions and the diffuse use of 1HMRS are often diriment in the differential of ischemic and metabolic strokes. This review summarized the main clinical features and the pathophysiological mechanisms of stroke and stroke-like episodes in inborn errors of metabolism presenting with stroke as part of natural history of the disease. These conditions belong to different etiological groups, such as organic acidurias, mitochondrial encephalopathies, homocystinuria and remethylation disorders, urea cycle disorders, lysosomal diseases (e.g. Fabry disease, glycogen storage disease), congenital disorders of glycosylation, neurotransmitter disorders, adenosine deaminase 2 deficiency and few other neurometabolic disorders.

Abstract
Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) is the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation. PMM2-CDG patients develop chronic cerebellar atrophy as a neurological hallmark. However, other acute neurological phenomena such as stroke-like episodes (SLE), epilepsy, migraine, and cerebrovascular events, may also occur, and they are frequently the cause of disability and impaired quality of life. Among these, SLE are among the most stressful situations for families and doctors, as their risk factors are not known, their underlying pathomechanisms remain undiscovered, and clinical guidelines for diagnosis, prevention, and treatment are lacking. In this paper, the recent SLE experiences of two PMM2-CDG patients are examined to provide clinical clues to help improve diagnosis through a clinical constellation of symptoms and a clinical definition, but also to support a neuroelectrical hypothesis as an underlying mechanism. An up-to-date literature review will help to identify evidence-based and non-evidence-based management recommendations. Presently neuropediatricians and neurologists are not capable of diagnosing stroke-like episodes in an unequivocal way, so there is still a need to perform invasive studies (to rule out other acute diseases) that may, in the end, prove unnecessary or even harmful. However, reaching a correct and early diagnosis would lead not only to avoidance of invasive tests but also to better recognition, management, and understanding of the disease itself. There is a great need for understanding of SLE that may ultimately be very informative for the detection of patients at risk, and the future development of preventive and management measures.

Abstract
Variants in Phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) lead to PMM2-CDG, the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). We here describe the disease course of a ten-month old patient who presented with the classical PMM2-CDG symptoms as cerebellar hypoplasia, retinitis pigmentosa, seizures, short stature, hepato- and splenomegaly, anaemia, recurrent vomiting and inverted mamillae. A severe form of tetralogy of Fallot was diagnosed and corrective surgery was performed at the age of 10 months. At the end of the cardiopulmonary bypass, a sudden oedematous reaction of the myocardium accompanied by biventricular pump failure was observed immediately after heparin antagonization with protamine sulfate. The patient died seven days after surgery, since myocardial function did not recover on ECMO support. We here describe the first patient carrying the homozygous variant g.18313A > T in the PMM2 gene (NG_009209.1) that either can lead to c.394A > T (p.I132F) or even loss of 100 bp due to exon 5 skipping (c.348_447del; p.G117Rfs*4) which is comparable to a null allele. Proliferation and doubling time of the patient's fibroblasts were affected. In addition, we show that the induction of cellular stress by elevating the cell culture temperature to 40 °C led to a decrease of the patients' PMM2 transcript as well as PMM2 protein levels and subsequently to a significant loss of residual activity. We assume that metabolic stressful processes occurring after cardiac surgery led to the drop of the patient's PMM activity below a life-sustaining niveau which paved the way for the fatal outcome.

Therapeutic approaches in Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG) involving N-linked glycosylation: an update. Genet Med 2020; 22:268-279. [PMID: 31534212 PMCID: PMC8720509 DOI: 10.1038/s41436-019-0647-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2019] [Accepted: 08/20/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous metabolic disorders. Over 150 CDG types have been described. Most CDG types are ultrarare disorders. CDG types affecting N-glycosylation are the most common type of CDG with emerging therapeutic possibilities. This review is an update on the available therapies for disorders affecting the N-linked glycosylation pathway. In the first part of the review, we highlight the clinical presentation, general principles of management, and disease-specific therapies for N-linked glycosylation CDG types, organized by organ system. The second part of the review focuses on the therapeutic strategies currently available and under development. We summarize the successful (pre-) clinical application of nutritional therapies, transplantation, activated sugars, gene therapy, and pharmacological chaperones and outline the anticipated expansion of the therapeutic possibilities in CDG. We aim to provide a comprehensive update on the treatable aspects of CDG types involving N-linked glycosylation, with particular emphasis on disease-specific treatment options for the involved organ systems; call for natural history studies; and present current and future therapeutic strategies for CDG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) is the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). Hypoglycemia has been reported in various CDG including PMM2-CDG. The frequency and etiology of hypoglycemia in PMM2-CDG are not well studied. METHODS We conducted a systematic review of the literature on genetically and/or biochemically confirmed PMM2-CDG patients who developed hypoglycemia. Prospective follow-up information on the patients who received diazoxide therapy was collected and evaluated. RESULTS A total of 165 peer-reviewed articles reporting on 933 PMM2-CDG patients were assessed. Hypoglycemia was specifically mentioned only in 23 of these patients (2.5%). Hyperinsulinism was identified in 10 patients (43% of all hypoglycemic patients). Among these 10 patients, seven were successfully treated with diazoxide. However, most patients remained on therapy longer than a year to stay free of hypoglycemia. CONCLUSION Hypoglycemia is a rarely reported finding in patients with PMM2-CDG. Diazoxide-responsive hyperinsulinism was found to have a good prognosis on medication in our PMM2-CDG patients with hypoglycemia. No genotype-phenotype correlation was observed with respect to hyperinsulinism. A prospective study should be undertaken to explore the hypothesis that hypoglycemia is underdiagnosed in PMM2-CDG and to evaluate whether hyperinsulinism is always associated with hypoglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Congenital disorders of glycosylation are rare inherited diseases affecting many different proteins. The lack of glycosylation notably affects the hemostatic system and leads to deficiencies of both procoagulant and anticoagulant factors. OBJECTIVE To assess the hemostatic balance in patients with multiple coagulation disorders by using a thrombin generation assay. METHOD We performed conventional coagulation assays and a thrombin generation assay on samples from patients with congenital disorder of glycosylation. The thrombin generation assay was performed before and after activation of the protein C system by the addition of soluble thrombomodulin. RESULTS A total of 35 patients were included: 71% and 57% had low antithrombin and factor XI levels, respectively. Protein C and protein S levels were abnormally low in 29% and 26% of the patients, respectively, whereas only 11% displayed low factor IX levels. Under baseline conditions, the thrombin generation assay revealed a significantly higher endogenous thrombin potential and thrombin peak in patients, relative to controls. After spiking with thrombomodulin, we observed impaired involvement of the protein C system. Hence, 54% of patients displayed a hypercoagulant phenotype in vitro. All the patients with a history of stroke-like episodes or thrombosis displayed this hypercoagulant phenotype. CONCLUSION A thrombin generation assay revealed a hypercoagulant in vitro phenotype under baseline condition; this was accentuated by impaired involvement of the protein C system. This procoagulant phenotype may thus reflect the risk of severe vascular complications. Further research will have to determine whether the thrombin generation assay is predictive of vascular events.

Abstract
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are multisystemic inherited metabolic disorders with marked phenotypic variability. The most frequent described type is PMM2-CDG (earlier known as CDG Type Ia) which presents either with pure neurologic features or with combined neurologic and systemic features. The classical presentation is characterized by varied combinations of developmental delay, hypotonia, ataxia, dysmorphism, inverted nipples, and abnormal fat distribution. Strokelike episodes and seizures are known acute complications that usually occur on a background of developmental delay, ataxia, or dysmorphism. We report here a developmentally normal young girl who presented with isolated strokelike episodes and was diagnosed to have CDG Type Ia. This condition should be kept in the differentials of unexplained strokelike episodes in children. The diagnosis has important therapeutic and prognostic implications.

Abstract
STT3A-CDG (OMIM# 615596) is an autosomal recessive N-linked glycosylation disorder characterized by seizures, developmental delay, intellectual disability, and a type I carbohydrate deficient transferrin pattern. All previously reported cases (n = 6) have been attributed to a homozygous pathogenic missense variant c.1877C>T (p.Val626Ala) in STT3A. We describe a patient with a novel homozygous likely pathogenic missense variant c.1079A>C (p.Tyr360Ser) who presents with chronically low Factor VIII (FVIII) and von Willebrand Factor (vWF) levels and activities in addition to the previously reported symptoms of developmental delay and seizures. VWF in our patient's plasma is present in a mildly hypoglycosylated form. FVIII antigen levels were too low to quantify in our patient. Functional studies with STT3A-/- HEK293 cells showed severely reduced FVIII antigen and activity levels in conditioned media <10% expected, but normal intracellular levels. We also show decreased glycosylation of STT3A-specific acceptors in fibroblasts from our patient, providing a mechanistic explanation for how STT3A deficiency leads to a severe defect in FVIII secretion. Our results suggest that certain STT3A-dependent N-glycans are required for efficient FVIII secretion, and the decreased FVIII level in our patient is a combined effect of both severely impaired FVIII secretion and lower plasma VWF level. Our report expands both the genotype and phenotype of STT3A-CDG; demonstrating, as in most types of CDG, that there are multiple disease-causing variants in STT3A.

Abstract
Phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2-CDG) is the most common congenital disorder of N-glycosylation and is caused by a deficient PMM2 activity. The clinical presentation and the onset of PMM2-CDG vary among affected individuals ranging from a severe antenatal presentation with multisystem involvement to mild adulthood presentation limited to minor neurological involvement. Management of affected patients requires a multidisciplinary approach. In this article, a systematic review of the literature on PMM2-CDG was conducted by a group of international experts in different aspects of CDG. Our managment guidelines were initiated based on the available evidence-based data and experts' opinions. This guideline mainly addresses the clinical evaluation of each system/organ involved in PMM2-CDG, and the recommended management approach. It is the first systematic review of current practices in PMM2-CDG and the first guidelines aiming at establishing a practical approach to the recognition, diagnosis and management of PMM2-CDG patients.

Stroke-Like Episodes and Cerebellar Syndrome in Phosphomannomutase Deficiency (PMM2-CDG): Evidence for Hypoglycosylation-Driven Channelopathy. Int J Mol Sci 2018; 19:ijms19020619.

Abstract
Stroke-like episodes (SLE) occur in phosphomannomutase deficiency (PMM2-CDG), and may complicate the course of channelopathies related to Familial Hemiplegic Migraine (FHM) caused by mutations in CACNA1A (encoding CaV2.1 channel). The underlying pathomechanisms are unknown. We analyze clinical variables to detect risk factors for SLE in a series of 43 PMM2-CDG patients. We explore the hypothesis of abnormal CaV2.1 function due to aberrant N-glycosylation as a potential novel pathomechanism of SLE and ataxia in PMM2-CDG by using whole-cell patch-clamp, N-glycosylation blockade and mutagenesis. Nine SLE were identified. Neuroimages showed no signs of stroke. Comparison of characteristics between SLE positive versus negative patients' group showed no differences. Acute and chronic phenotypes of patients with PMM2-CDG or CACNA1A channelopathies show similarities. Hypoglycosylation of both CaV2.1 subunits (α1A and α2α) induced gain-of-function effects on channel gating that mirrored those reported for pathogenic CACNA1A mutations linked to FHM and ataxia. Unoccupied N-glycosylation site N283 at α1A contributes to a gain-of-function by lessening CaV2.1 inactivation. Hypoglycosylation of the α₂δ subunit also participates in the gain-of-function effect by promoting voltage-dependent opening of the CaV2.1 channel. CaV2.1 hypoglycosylation may cause ataxia and SLEs in PMM2-CDG patients. Aberrant CaV2.1 N-glycosylation as a novel pathomechanism in PMM2-CDG opens new therapeutic possibilities.

Abstract
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a rapidly growing family of genetic diseases caused by defects in glycosylation. Nearly 100 CDG types are known so far. Patients present a great phenotypic diversity ranging from poly- to mono-organ/system involvement and from very mild to extremely severe presentation. In this literature review, we summarize the liver involvement reported in CDG patients. Although liver involvement is present in only a minority of the reported CDG types (22 %), it can be debilitating or even life-threatening. Sixteen of the patients we collated here developed cirrhosis, 10 had liver failure. We distinguish two main groups: on the one hand, the CDG types with predominant or isolated liver involvement including MPI-CDG, TMEM199-CDG, CCDC115-CDG, and ATP6AP1-CDG, and on the other hand, the CDG types associated with liver disease but not as a striking, unique or predominant feature, including PMM2-CDG, ALG1-CDG, ALG3-CDG, ALG6-CDG, ALG8-CDG, ALG9-CDG, PGM1-CDG, and COG-CDG. This review aims to facilitate CDG patient identification and to understand CDG liver involvement, hopefully leading to earlier diagnosis, and better management and treatment.

Abstract
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a rapidly growing family of genetic diseases comprising more than 85 known distinct disorders. They show a great phenotypic variability ranging from multi-organ/system to mono-organ/system involvement with very mild to extremely severe expression. Immunological dysfunction has a significant impact on the phenotype in a minority of CDG. CDG with major immunological involvement are ALG12-CDG, MAGT1-CDG, MOGS-CDG, SLC35C1-CDG and PGM3-CDG. This review discusses the variety of immunological abnormalities reported in human CDG. Understanding the immunological aspects of CDG may contribute to a better management/treatment of these pathologies and possibly of more common diseases, such as inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
PMM2-CDG (formerly known as CDG Ia) a deficiency in phosphomannomutase, is the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation. The phenotype encompasses a wide range of neurological and non-neurological manifestations comprising cerebellar atrophy and intellectual deficiency. The phenotype of the disorder is well characterized in children but the long term course of the disease is unknown and the phenotype of late onset forms has not been comprehensively described. We thus retrospectively collected the clinical, biological and radiological data of 29 French PMM2-CDG patients aged 15 years or more with a proven molecular diagnosis (16 females and 13 males). In addition, thirteen of these patients were reexamined at the time of the study to obtain detailed information. 27 of the 29 patients had a typical PMM2-CDG phenotype, with infantile hypotonia, strabismus, developmental delay followed by intellectual deficiency, epilepsy, retinitis pigmentosa and/or visceral manifestations. The main health problems for these patients as teenagers and in adulthood were primary ovarian insufficiency, growth retardation, coagulation anomalies and thrombotic events, skeletal deformities and osteopenia/osteoporosis, retinitis pigmentosa, as well as peripheral neuropathy. Three patients had never walked and three lost their ability to walk. The two remaining patients had a late-onset phenotype unreported to date. All patients (n = 29) had stable cerebellar atrophy. Our findings are in line with those of previous adult PMM2-CDG cohorts and points to the need for a multidisciplinary approach to the follow up of PMM2-CDG patients to prevent late complications. Additionally, our findings add weight to the view that PMM2-CDG may be diagnosed in teenage/adult patients with cerebellar atrophy, even in the absence of intellectual deficiency or non-neurological involvement.

Abstract
The congenital disorder of glycosylation characterized by a deficiency of phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2-CDG) is the most common variant of congenital disorders of glycosylation. Besides typical clinical features, such as dysmorphism and abnormal body fat distribution, coagulation abnormities often lead to thromboembolic and hemorrhagic events in these patients. However, only 2 cases of intracerebral bleeding in patients with PMM2-CDG have been described so far. A 4-year-old girl who initially presented with symptoms resulting from raised intracranial pressure underwent acute neurosurgical intervention for intracranial hemorrhage. The differential diagnoses after MRI included arteriovenous malformation and intraparenchymal brain tumor. However, clinical investigations promoted the diagnosis of PMM2-CDG, which was supported further by neuropathological findings and finally confirmed by isoelectric focusing and mutational analysis. No major complications or neurological deficits were evident after surgery, and the patient was able to attend an integrated kindergarten. Unexplained intracranial hemorrhage should raise suspicion of a metabolic disorder and should be discussed with specialists to rule out an orphan disease such as PMM2-CDG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mutations in PMM2 impair phosphomannomutase-2 activity and cause the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation, PMM2-CDG. Mannose-1-phosphate, that is deficient in this disorder, is also implicated in the biosynthesis of glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchors. OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether GPI-anchor and GPI-anchored proteins are defective in PMM2-CDG patients. METHODS The expression of GPI-anchor and seven GPI-anchored proteins was evaluated by flow cytometry in different cell types from twelve PMM2-CDG patients. Additionally, neutrophil CD16 and plasma hepatic proteins were studied by Western blot. Transferrin glycoforms were evaluated by HPLC. RESULTS Patients and controls had similar surface expression of GPI-anchor and most GPI-anchored proteins. Nevertheless, patients displayed a significantly diminished binding of two anti-CD16 antibodies (3G8 and KD1) to neutrophils and also of anti-CD14 (61D3) to monocytes. Interestingly, CD16 immunostaining and asialotransferrin levels significantly correlated with patients' age. Analysis by flow cytometry of CD14 with MΦP9, and CD16 expression in neutrophils by Western blot using H-80 ruled out deficiencies of these antigens. CONCLUSIONS PMM2 mutations do not impair GPI-anchor or GPI-anchored protein expression. However, the glycosylation anomalies caused by PMM2 mutations might affect the immunoreactivity of monoclonal antibodies and lead to incorrect conclusions about the expression of different proteins, including GPI-anchored proteins. Neutrophils and monocytes are sensitive to PMM2 mutations, leading to abnormal glycosylation in immune receptors, which might potentially affect their affinity to their ligands, and contribute to infection. This study also confirms less severe hypoglycosylation defects in older PMM2-CDG patients.

Abstract
Many proteins regulating coagulation, including factor IX, factor XI, Antithrombin-III, Protein C and Protein S are deficient or decreased in activity in congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG). Because of the imbalance of coagulation and anticoagulation factors, some patients develop acute vascular events, such as thrombosis. Identifying patients with increased risk for thrombotic events could prevent serious complications and even mortality. We performed a systematic review on patients diagnosed with the most common CDG form; PMM2-CDG, reported between 1990 and 2012 in medical literature. We also evaluated our PMM2-CDG patient-cohort of 15 patients. In total, based on the availability of comprehensive clinical descriptions, 100 patients were included in the study. Patients with and without thrombotic events were compared based on the alterations of the following glycosylated coagulation and anticoagulation factors: Antithrombin-III, Protein C, Protein S, factors IX and XI. We also assessed the global hemostasis, family history and provoking events. In the group of 100 PMM2-CDG patients 14 had suffered a venous or arterial thrombotic event. Low activity of several anticoagulation factors correlated with thrombotic events. Relatively high factor IX and XI activities were not associated with thrombosis. Prolonged PT and aPTT did not seem to protect against thrombosis in patients. Surgical procedures were frequently associated with thrombotic events. Based on the association of thrombosis and surgery in PMM2-CDG we advise to avoid elective surgical procedures in PMM2-CDG patients. Easily preventable risk factors like immobility should be treated with regular physiotherapy. We suggest a yearly follow-up for Antithrombin-III and Protein C levels and parent education for early thrombotic signs in CDG.

Abstract
Congenital disorders of glycosylation are a growing group of inborn errors of protein glycosylation. Cardiac involvement is frequently observed in the most common form, PMM2-CDG, especially hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Dilated cardiomyopathy, however, has been only observed in a few CDG subtypes, usually with a lethal outcome. We report on cardiac pathology in nine patients from three unrelated Israeli families, diagnosed with dolichol kinase deficiency, due to novel, homozygous DK1 gene mutations. The cardiac symptoms varied from discrete, mild dilation to overt heart failure with death. Two children died unexpectedly with acute symptoms of heart failure before the diagnosis of DK1-CDG and heart transplantation could take place. Three other affected children with mild dilated cardiomyopathy at the time of the diagnosis deteriorated rapidly, two of them within days after an acute infection. They all went through successful heart transplantation; one died unexpectedly and 2 others are currently (after 1-5 years) clinically stable. The other 4 children diagnosed with mild dilated cardiomyopathy are doing well on supportive heart failure therapy. In most cases, the cardiac findings dominated the clinical picture, without central nervous system or multisystem involvement, which is unique in CDG syndrome. We suggest to test for DK1-CDG in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. Patients with discrete cardiomyopathy may remain stable on supportive treatment while others deteriorate rapidly. Our paper is the first comprehensive study on the phenotype of DK1-CDG and the first successful organ transplantation in CDG syndrome.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Stroke and cerebrovascular disorders in childhood are a cause for significant morbidity in childhood. There is growing emphasis on understanding the mechanisms of stroke so as to inform developments in investigation and management. RECENT FINDINGS Advances have been made in the classification of pediatric stroke, aided by clinical and radiological recognition of patterns of injury and differential outcomes dependent on timing of stroke occurrence. Risk factors are multifactorial, with evidence of geographical and national variation. Causality, however, remains difficult to prove. Recent studies highlight a significant association between stroke recurrence and outcome and the presence of steno-occlusive arterial disease, Moyamoya disease and progressive arteriopathy. Focal arteriopathy of childhood is a new term proposed to refine the nomenclature of childhood arteriopathy. The association between infection and childhood stroke is increasingly recognized, with associations with sinovenous thrombosis and childhood arteriopathy. The recommendation to screen for arteriopathy in genetic conditions such as sickle cell disease is now extended to include children with neurofibromatosis type 1. Perfusion and magnetic resonance wall imaging have helped in the determination of the cause of stroke with impact on management in adults. Two new treatment guidelines have been published (American Heart Association and Chest), but barriers remain to the use of thrombolysis in childhood stroke. SUMMARY Continued developments in understanding and practice in childhood stroke are encouraging. However, the absence of clinical trials and evidence-based guidelines is limiting. The conduct of such trials is a goal towards which the International Pediatric Stroke Study is moving.

Abstract
The congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a recently described group of inherited multisystem disorders characterized by defects predominantly of N- and O-glycosylation of proteins. Cardiomyopathy in CDG has previously been described in several subtypes; it is usually associated with high morbidity and mortality and the majority of cases present in the first 2 years of life. This is the first case with presentation in late childhood and the article reviews current literature. An 11-year-old female with a background of learning difficulties presented in cardiac failure secondary to severe dilated cardiomyopathy. Prior to the diagnosis of CDG, her condition deteriorated; she required mechanical support (Excor Berlin Heart) and was listed for cardiac transplant. Investigations included screening for glycosylation disorders, and isoelectric focusing of transferrin revealed an abnormal type 1 pattern. Analysis of phosphomannomutase and phosphomannose isomerase showed normal enzyme activity, excluding PMM2 (CDG Ia) and MPI (CDG Ib). Lipid-linked oligosaccharide and mutational studies have not yet defined the defect. Despite aggressive therapy there were persistent difficulties achieving adequate anticoagulation and she developed multiple life-threatening thrombotic complications. She was removed from the transplant list and died from overwhelming sepsis 5 weeks following admission. This case emphasizes the need to screen all children with an undiagnosed cardiomyopathy for CDG, regardless of age, and where possible to exclude CDG before the use of cardiac bridging devices. It highlights the many practical and ethical challenges that may be encountered where clinical knowledge and experience are still evolving.

Abstract
Very recently, Haeuptle and colleagues described a new glycosylation defect due to RFT1 deficiency (CDG In). Accumulation of intracellular DolPP-GlcNAc(2)Man(5) with absence of cytosolic GlcNAc(2)Man(5) resembled the profile of a yeast mutant deficient in RFT1, a protein that is thought to have a role as a flippase. This is the first detailed description of the clinical phenotype of this patient. It was a severe disorder affecting intrauterine development and movement, and leading to intrauterine growth retardation. The child was born with several musculoskeletal abnormalities including arthrogryposis. Postnatally, severe reflux and irregular bowl movements contributed to failure to thrive. The patient showed very little development and no vision and suffered from drug-resistant epilepsy. Abnormal coagulation resulted in thrombosis and the patient died at the age of 4 years from a pulmonary embolus.

Abstract
Congenital disorder of glycosylation Ia (CDG-Ia) is a metabolic disease with a broad spectrum of clinical signs, including recently described mild phenotypes. Our aim was to describe the clinical presentation and follow-up of eight CDG-Ia patients highlighting atypical features and aspects of evolution of the disease. CDG diagnosis was confirmed by enzymatic analysis of phosphomannomutase (PMM2) and molecular studies of the PMM2 gene. Four neonates presented with cerebral haemorrhage (1), failure to thrive (2) and non-immune hydrops (1) and a fatal course to death (2); pathological examination of the brain in one case revealed olivopontocerebellar atrophy of prenatal origin. During infancy failure to thrive, coagulopathy and hepatopathy were the most significant causes of morbidity, but these disappeared after the first years of life in most patients. Three patients are currently in their 20s; they present mental retardation and severe motor impairment but no acute decompensations were noticed after the first decade of life. They do not present spinal or thoracic deformities otherwise observed in patients from northern countries. A 10-year-old patient who manifested gastrointestinal dysfunction in early childhood showed normal neurodevelopment. Mutation analysis of the PMM2 gene showed great variability, with all patients being compound heterozygous for two different mutations. Long-term evolution in our patients indicates that CDG-Ia is a stable systemic and neurological condition after the first decade of life. The diverse phenotypes and atypical manifestations in our series may be due to their genetic heterogeneity.

Abstract
Congenital disorders of glycosylation type Ia (CDG-Ia) are the most common type of CDG and are characterized by liver dysfunction, coagulation disorders, mental retardation, hypotonia, cerebellar dysfunction, polyneuropathy, seizures, and stroke-like episodes. Stroke-like episodes occur in 40-55% of cases, but their etiology is not fully understood. Although it has been stated that an epileptic process may cause the stroke-like episodes, there is no clear evidence of ischemic stroke. Here, we describe two stroke-like episodes in a patient with CDG. We performed radiological studies during each episode and obtained two distinct magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings: one revealed an ischemic stroke, and the other demonstrated marked edema followed by focal necrosis. This is the first direct evidence of ischemic stroke, and we report that another process may affect the etiology in the same patient.

Abstract
Congenital disorders of glycosylation are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders resulting from abnormal glycosylation of various glycoconjugates. The first description of congenital disorders of glycosylation was published in the early 80s and once screening tests for glycosylation disorders (CDGs) became readily available, CDG-Ia became the most frequently diagnosed CDG subtype. CDG-Ia is pan-ethnic and the spectrum of the clinical manifestations is still evolving: it spans from severe hydrops fetalis and fetal loss to a (nearly) normal phenotype. However, the most common presentation in infancy is of a multisystem disorder with central nervous system involvement.

Abstract
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) comprise a family of inherited multisystemic disorders resulting from the deficiency of glycosylation pathways. N-glycosylation defects are classified as two biochemical and genetic established types, of which CDG-Ia is the most frequent. We performed 2-DE proteomic analysis on serum from two functional hemizygous CDG-Ia patients bearing T237M and D65Y missense changes. Comparative analysis of control/patient serum proteome allowed us to identify differential expression of 14 proteins. The most remarkable groups included proteins involved in immune response, coagulation mechanism and tissue protection against oxidative stress. The patient bearing D65Y mutation had less favourable clinical outcome and showed more abnormalities in the spot patterns, suggesting that the proteomic results might also be correlated with the phenotype of CDG patients. This study describes for the first time the differential expression of alpha(2)-macroglobulin, afamin, fibrin and fibrinogen in CDG disorder and shows how the proteomic approach might be useful for understanding its physiopathology.
