  2. Glycerol kinase deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerol_kinase_deficiency

    Treatments for Glycerol Kinase Deficiency are targeted to treat the symptoms because there are no permanent treatments for this disease. The main way to treat these symptoms is by using corticosteroids, glucose infusion, or mineralocorticoids. Corticosteroids are steroid hormones that are naturally produced in the adrenal glands.

  3. Hyperglycerolemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperglycerolemia

    Hyperglycerolemia, also known as glycerol kinase deficiency (GKD), is a genetic disorder where the enzyme glycerol kinase is deficient resulting in a build-up of glycerol in the body. Glycerol kinase is responsible for synthesizing triglycerides and glycerophospholipids in the body. Excess amounts of glycerol can be found in the blood and/ or ...

  4. Vitamin K deficiency bleeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_K_deficiency_bleeding

    This combination can lead to vitamin K deficiency and later onset bleeding. Vitamin K deficiency leads to the risk of blood coagulation problems due to impaired production of clotting factors II, VII, IX, X, protein C and protein S by the liver. More rarely VKDB can be caused by maternal medicines causing vitamin K deficiency in the newborn. [2]

    Most individuals with G6PD deficiency are asymptomatic.When it induces hemolysis, the effect is usually short-lived. [5]Most people who develop symptoms are male, due to the X-linked pattern of inheritance, but female carriers can be affected due to unfavorable lyonization or skewed X-inactivation, where random inactivation of an X-chromosome in certain cells creates a population of G6PD ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucuronosyltransferase

    A deficiency in the bilirubin specific form of glucuronosyltransferase is thought to be the cause of Gilbert's syndrome, which is characterized by unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. It is also associated with Crigler–Najjar syndrome , a more serious disorder where the enzyme's activity is either completely absent (Crigler–Najjar syndrome type ...

    The scope of GSD VI now also includes glycogen storage disease type VIII, [2] IX [2] (caused by phosphorylase b kinase deficiency) and X [2] (deficiency protein kinase A). The incidence of GSD VI is approximately 1 case per 65,000–85,000 births, [2] representing approximately 30% all cases of glycogen storage disease.

    Alipogene tiparvovec (Glybera): AAV-based treatment for lipoprotein lipase deficiency (no longer commercially available) Axicabtagene ciloleucel (Yescarta): treatment for large B-cell lymphoma [1] Beremagene geperpavec (Vyjuvek): treatment of wounds. [2] Betibeglogene autotemcel (Zynteglo): treatment for beta thalassemia [3]

  9. Glycogen storage disease type III - Wikipedia

    Treatment for glycogen storage disease type III may involve a high-protein diet, to facilitate gluconeogenesis. Additionally the individual may need: [2] [1] [10] IV glucose (if oral route is inadvisable) Nutritional specialist; Vitamin D (for osteoporosis/secondary complication) Hepatic transplant (if a complication occurs)
