Abstract
⺠Some adults with Pompe disease have very low GAA activity in fibroblasts. ⺠These patients do not carry the most common mutation c.-32-13 T > G. ⺠Compared to classic-infantile patients they express higher GAA activity in muscle. ⺠Higher activity in muscle might explain the slowly progressive disease course. ⺠Different fibroblast and muscle activities are due to cell-type-specific processing.
