Descriptor Spanish: Enfermedad del Almacenamiento de Glucógeno Tipo VIII
Descriptor enfermedad por almacenamiento de glucógeno tipo VIII
Entry term(s) glucogenosis tipo 8
Scope note: Enfermedad por almacenamiento de glucógeno hepático, recesiva y ligada al cromosoma X, que se produce por falta de expresión de la actividad de fosforilasa-b-quinasa. Los síntomas son relativamente ligeros, con hepatomegalia, incremento del glucógeno hepático, y disminución de la fosforilasa de los leucocitos. En respuesta al glucagón se produce reducción del tamaño del hígado.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D006015
Scope note: An x-linked recessive hepatic glycogen storage disease resulting from lack of expression of phosphorylase-b-kinase activity. Symptoms are relatively mild; hepatomegaly, increased liver glycogen, and decreased leukocyte phosphorylase are present. Liver shrinkage occurs in response to glucagon.
