Abstract
Glut1 Deficiency Syndrome (Glut1DS) has emerged as a treatable, but complex entity. Increasing data on pathogenic mechanisms, phenotype, genotype, and ketogenic dietary therapies (KDT) are available, as summarized in this review. Many challenges remain: novel symptoms emerge and vary with age. In Glut1DS, KDT in pregnancy and the clinical features in neonates and adults are poorly understood. KDT are ineffective in some patients for reasons yet unknown. Research reaches beyond the concept of brain energy depletion by impaired GLUT1-mediated glucose transfer across the blood–brain barrier. Novel concepts investigate alternative substrates, transport mechanisms, and metabolic interactions of different brain cell types. Future, yet currently unavailable prospects are neonatal screening for Glut1DS, reliable biomarkers, predictors for outcome, and alternative therapies, along with and beyond KDT.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease (JIMD) is the official journal of the Society for the Study of Inborn Errors of Metabolism (SSIEM). By enhancing communication between workers in the field throughout the world, the JIMD aims to improve the management and understanding of inherited metabolic disorders. It publishes results of original research and new or important observations pertaining to any aspect of inherited metabolic disease in humans and higher animals. This includes clinical (medical, dental and veterinary), biochemical, genetic (including cytogenetic, molecular and population genetic), experimental (including cell biological), methodological, theoretical, epidemiological, ethical and counselling aspects. The JIMD also reviews important new developments or controversial issues relating to metabolic disorders and publishes reviews and short reports arising from the Society''s annual symposia. A distinction is made between peer-reviewed scientific material that is selected because of its significance for other professionals in the field and non-peer- reviewed material that aims to be important, controversial, interesting or entertaining (“Extras”).
