Các chữ số La Mã cho biết các enzyme có thiếu sót gây ra gan (in nghiêng) | 102 Chapter 6 The Glycogen Storage Diseases and Related Disorders Glycogen Metabolism Glycogen is a macromolecule composed of glucose units. It is found in all tissues but is most abundant in liver and muscle where it serves as an energy store pro viding glucose and glycolytic intermediates o Fig. Numerous enzymes intervene in the synthesis and degradation of glycogen which is regulated by hormones.

GSD I III VI and IX present similarly with hypoglycemia marked hepatomegaly and growth retardation. GSD I is the most severe affecting both glycogen breakdown and gluconeogenesis. In GSD Ib there is additionally a disorder of neutrophil function. Most patients with GSD III have a syndrome that includes hepatopathy myopathy and often cardiomyopathy. GSD VI and GSD IX are the least severe there is only a mild tendency to fasting hypoglycemia liver size normalises with age and
