Description:
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) comprise a group of clinically heterogeneous conditions that may affect multiple organs and systems, including the central nervous system, the muscular system, the immune system, the endocrine system, and the coagulation system. This study aims to deepen the understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms underlying these disorders, as well as to improve their diagnosis and clinical management.
Project Objective:
Research on rare diseases represents a unique opportunity to elucidate fundamental biological mechanisms that may also be shared by much more common conditions. The results obtained may be translated and applied to the study and management of other diseases and disorders, thereby broadening the scientific and clinical impact of the project.
