[Serum lipoproteins in the generalized form of type III glycogenosis].

Distinct accumulation of glycogen, anomalous in structure, and absence of amylo-1,6-glucosidase activity were observed in studies of material obtained by biopsy from liver and muscle tissues of a patient with generalized form of glycogenosis type III. Anamalous glycogen (limitdextrin) was also found in erythrocytes. Concentration of lipoproteins, especially of low density lipoproteins 12.20 S and 0-12 S, was increased in blood serum. Spectrum of lipoproteins acquired a tendency to normalization simultaneously with clinical improvement after intravenous administration of glucose and treatment with cholesterolamine per os.
