Brief Summary:
The purpose of the study is to determine whether carrier status for any type of glycogen storage disease (GSD) predisposes the carrier to GSD markers, like high cholesterol, by testing blood, urine, and saliva samples.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Glycogen Storage Disease Genetic: Glycogen Storage Disease markers

Detailed Description:

Subjects will be asked to contribute about a teaspoon of blood, 1 oz of urine, and 2 tablespoons of saliva samples in the morning before they have had anything to eat. The blood and urine samples will be tested for the markers of GSD, while the saliva sample will be used for genetic testing. Subjects' height and weight will also be measured.

Subjects will also be asked to fill out a questionnaire about symptoms common to full GSD expression that they may have experienced, as well as if they are currently on any medication to control their cholesterol.

Groups and Cohorts

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Ia carriers
Carriers of GSD type Ia will have their blood and urine tested to measure markers of GSD. Their saliva will be tested to determine their specific mutation. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
 Genetic: Glycogen Storage Disease markers
Blood and urine tests will be performed on all groups to measure markers of GSD. A saliva DNA test will be used to determine the specific mutation the carrier has or to ensure noncarrier status. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
Ib carriers
Carriers of GSD type Ib will have their blood and urine tested to measure markers of GSD. Their saliva will be tested to determine their specific mutation. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
 Genetic: Glycogen Storage Disease markers
Blood and urine tests will be performed on all groups to measure markers of GSD. A saliva DNA test will be used to determine the specific mutation the carrier has or to ensure noncarrier status. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
III carriers
Carriers of GSD type III will have their blood and urine tested to measure markers of GSD. Their saliva will be tested to determine their specific mutation. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
 Genetic: Glycogen Storage Disease markers
Blood and urine tests will be performed on all groups to measure markers of GSD. A saliva DNA test will be used to determine the specific mutation the carrier has or to ensure noncarrier status. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
0, VI, IX carriers
Carriers of GSD types 0, VI, and IX will have their blood and urine tested to measure markers of GSD. Their saliva will be tested to determine their specific mutation. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
 Genetic: Glycogen Storage Disease markers
Blood and urine tests will be performed on all groups to measure markers of GSD. A saliva DNA test will be used to determine the specific mutation the carrier has or to ensure noncarrier status. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
Noncarriers
Noncarriers of any type of GSD will have their blood and urine tested to measure markers of GSD. Their saliva will be tested to ensure their noncarrier status. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
 Genetic: Glycogen Storage Disease markers
Blood and urine tests will be performed on all groups to measure markers of GSD. A saliva DNA test will be used to determine the specific mutation the carrier has or to ensure noncarrier status. A questionnaire will also be filled out.
