Loss-of-function of the glucose-6-phosphate transporter is caused by biallelic mutations in SLC37A4 and leads to glycogen storage disease Ib. Here we describe a second disease caused by a single dominant mutation in the same gene. The mutation abolishes the ER retention signal of the transporter and generates a weak Golgi retention signal. Intracellular mislocalization of the transporter leads to a congenital disorder of glycosylation instead of glycogen storage disease.

Glucose-6-phosphatase-β (G6PC3) is a ubiquitous phosphatase present in the endoplasmic reticulum, which, unlike G6PC1, is not responsible for maintaining blood glucose level under starvation. Recently, G6PC3 has been shown to play an important role in neutrophil granulocytes, eliminating the toxic metabolite 1,5-anhydroglucitol-6-phosphate. The present study aimed to look for alternative substrates for the enzyme and outline the expression changes in the parts of this multicomponent system during neutrophil granulocyte differentiation.

Fasting hypoglycemia is a severe and incompletely understood symptom of various inborn errors of metabolism (IEM). Precision-cut liver slices (PCLS) represent a promising model for studying glucose production ex vivo. This study quantified the net glucose production of human and murine PCLS in the presence of different gluconeogenic precursors.

Glycogen storage disease type Ib (GSD-Ib) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency in the glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) transporter (G6PT) that is responsible for transporting G6P into the endoplasmic reticulum. GSD-Ib is characterized by disturbances in glucose homeostasis, neutropenia, and neutrophil dysfunction. Although some studies have explored neutrophils abnormalities in GSD-Ib, investigations regarding monocytes/macrophages remain limited so far.

Neutropenia and neutrophil dysfunction in glycogen storage disease type 1b (GSD1b) and severe congenital neutropenia type 4 (SCN4), associated with deficiencies of the glucose-6-phosphate transporter (G6PT/SLC37A4) and the phosphatase G6PC3, respectively, are the result of the accumulation of 1,5-anhydroglucitol-6-phosphate in neutrophils. This is an inhibitor of hexokinase made from 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG), an abundant polyol in blood. 1,5-AG is presumed to be reabsorbed in the kidney by a sodium-dependent-transporter of uncertain identity, possibly SGLT4/SLC5A9 or SGLT5/SLC5A10.
