Abstract
Pompe disease is caused by reduced or complete absence of functional acid α-glucosidase (GAA), an acid hydrolase that degrades glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. The clinical phenotype represents a continuum based on the extent of residual enzyme activity and is characterized by extensive glycogen accumulation in all tissues, but is most prominent in cardiac and skeletal muscle. Respiratory insufficiency is extremely common, and cardiorespiratory failure is the leading cause of death. Currently, the only FDA-approved treatment for Pompe disease is enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) involving bi-weekly intravenous infusion of recombinant human GAA (rhGAA). ERT improves the overall survival in the severe, infantile-onset form of the disease. Although the existing ERT is more effective in improving cardiomyopathy in these patients, it is not very effective in treating skeletal muscle damage and only delays the eventual requirement of these patients for ambulatory and ventilator support. This summary will review the recent developments aimed at improving the targeting of new and existing therapeutics to skeletal muscle to reduce the aberrant glycogen load and eliminate muscle damage.
