Overview

The exact pathogenesis of [disease name] is not fully understood.

OR

It is thought that [disease name] is the result of / is mediated by / is produced by / is caused by either [hypothesis 1], [hypothesis 2], or [hypothesis 3].

OR

[Pathogen name] is usually transmitted via the [transmission route] route to the human host.

OR

Following transmission/ingestion, the [pathogen] uses the [entry site] to invade the [cell name] cell.

OR


[Disease or malignancy name] arises from [cell name]s, which are [cell type] cells that are normally involved in [function of cells].

OR

The progression to [disease name] usually involves the [molecular pathway].

OR

The pathophysiology of [disease/malignancy] depends on the histological subtype.

Pathophysiology

Pathogenesis

  • Glycogen storage disease type 2 (GSD type 2) results due to deficiency of lysosomal enzyme acid α-glucosidase (GAA).[1]
  • GSD type 2 is the most severe type of GSD leading to death in earlier stages of life.
  • Deficiency of GAA leads to accumulation of glycogen in lysosomes of various tissues, most commonly in cardiac, skeletal, and smooth muscle cells.[2]
  • There is a progressive accumulation of glycogen and its substrates in tissues leading to debilitation, organ failure and finally death.[3]
  • There are a range of severity and varies with:
    • Age of onset
    • Organ involvement including degree and severity of muscular involvement (skeletal, respiratory, cardiac)
    • Rate of progression
  • It is believed that movement of muscle and increased myofibril rigidity during contraction leads to rupture of lysosomes in muscle. These ruptured lysosomes in muscles releases glycogen and other lysosomal contents leading to destruction of muscles.[4]
  • Other cells including marcophages deposits glycogen and its substrates in lysosomes.

Genetics

Associated Conditions

Gross Pathology

  • On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].

Microscopic Pathology

  • On microscopic histopathological analysis, characteristic findings of glycogen storage disease type 2 include:[9]
    • Muscle
      • Light microscopy
        • PAS-positive (diastase sensitive) vacuoles
      • Electron microscopy
        • Membrane bound glycogen
