Abstract

AbstractGlycogen storage diseases (GSDs) are abnormally inherited glycogen metabolism mainly affecting the liver, muscles, and heart. Deficiency of proteins involved in glycogen metabolism caused by genetic mutations are responsible for different subtype of GSDs. However, there are still some challenges in diagnosing GSD. This study includes 39 suspected GSDs patients from unrelated families in China. Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) was used to investigate the reason for their diseases at the genetic level. Finally, all 39 patients were diagnosed with GSDs, including 20 GSD‐Ia, 4 GSD‐VI, and 15 GSD IX (12 GSD‐IXa patients and 3 GSD‐IXb patients). Thirty‐two mutations in G6PC1, PYGL, PHKA2, and PHKB genes were identified, with 14 of them being novel variants. The pathogenicity of novel variants was classified according to ACMG guildlines and predicted by in slico algorithms. Mutations p.L216L and p.R83H in G6PC1 gene may be the hot spot mutation in Chinese. Hearing impairment is a rare clinical feature of GSD Ia, which has also been observed in our cohort. The severity of GSD VI and IX was indicated by our patients. Close follow‐up should be applied to GSD VI and IX patients. Our findings provided evidence for building the phenotype–genotype of GSDs and expanded the mutation spectrum of related genes.
