Pathophysiology

MAN2B1 lysosomal alpha-mannosidase deficiency
Biallelic pathogenic variants in MAN2B1 reduce lysosomal alpha-mannosidase activity, impairing the lysosomal catabolism of glycoprotein-derived alpha-mannosides.

Histopathology

1
Lysosomal cellular storage pathology FREQUENT
Alpha-mannosidosis is a lysosomal enzyme-deficiency disorder; tissue and cellular pathology are expected to reflect lysosomal storage of mannose-rich oligosaccharides. This entry records the storage-pathology axis without asserting a PAS-positive lymphocyte finding not present in the current abstract-only reference cache.
Show evidence (1 reference)
PMID:18651971 SUPPORT Human Clinical
"The disorder is caused by lysosomal alpha-mannosidase deficiency."
The review supports alpha-mannosidosis as a lysosomal enzyme-deficiency storage disease.

Velmanase alfa enzyme replacement therapy
Action: pharmacotherapy MAXO:0000058
Agent: velmanase alfa
Velmanase alfa is recombinant human lysosomal alpha-mannosidase used as enzyme replacement therapy for non-neurological manifestations. Trials show sustained serum oligosaccharide clearance, immunologic improvement, and greater benefit when started in pediatric patients.
Mechanism Target:
RESTORES MAN2B1 lysosomal alpha-mannosidase deficiency — Velmanase alfa supplies recombinant lysosomal alpha-mannosidase activity.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Action: hematopoietic stem cell transplantation MAXO:0000747
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can normalize leukocyte enzyme activity and may stabilize cognitive function and improve hearing when performed early, but transplant candidacy and risk require specialist evaluation.
Mechanism Target:
RESTORES MAN2B1 lysosomal alpha-mannosidase deficiency — Donor-derived hematopoietic cells restore leukocyte alpha-mannosidase activity.

  Alpha-mannosidosis is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder
  caused by biallelic MAN2B1 pathogenic variants and deficient lysosomal
  alpha-mannosidase activity. Impaired degradation of glycoprotein-derived
  mannose-rich oligosaccharides causes progressive multisystem disease with
  immune deficiency, recurrent infections, hearing impairment, intellectual
  disability, coarse facial features, skeletal dysplasia, hepatosplenomegaly,

Alpha-mannosidosis Deep Research Fallback

Provider Attempts

  • Falcon: just research-disorder falcon Alpha_Mannosidosis started at this worktree and produced no output for several minutes; the provider process was terminated to avoid a silent deep-research wait.
  • OpenAI: just research-disorder openai Alpha_Mannosidosis was attempted after Falcon and also produced no output during two bounded wait intervals; the provider process was terminated.

Evidence Scope

The YAML curation integrates deterministic Orphanet structured records and fetched PubMed abstracts:

  • ORPHA:61 provides the direct disease mapping to MONDO:0009561, OMIM:248500, the definition, autosomal recessive inheritance, natural-history onset terms, prevalence rows, and the complete disease-level HPO phenotype table.
  • ORPHA:309282 and ORPHA:309288 provide infantile and adult subtype mappings to MONDO:0017732 and MONDO:0017733 plus MAN2B1 disease-causing gene rows.
  • PMID:18651971 supports the clinical definition, progressive course, MAN2B1/lysosomal alpha-mannosidase disease mechanism, enzyme and urinary-oligosaccharide diagnostic approach, supportive care, and genetic counseling.
  • PMID:26048034 supports the MAN2B1 genotype relationship, loss of lysosomal alpha-mannosidase activity, CSF oligosaccharide burden, and neurodevelopmental/motor/craniofacial phenotype links.
  • PMID:15126988 supports allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation as a disease-modifying treatment that normalizes leukocyte enzyme activity and can stabilize progressive cognitive loss.
  • PMID:29846843, PMID:36849760, and PMID:39381850 support velmanase alfa enzyme replacement therapy, including recombinant enzyme identity, clinical trial use, serum oligosaccharide clearance, immunologic effects, and long-term benefit.
  • PMID:40276561 supports the contemporary cohort framing of alpha-mannosidosis as an ultrarare multisystemic disorder caused by alpha-mannosidase deficiency.

Integration Notes

The curated YAML represents the canonical mechanism as MAN2B1-related lysosomal alpha-mannosidase deficiency leading to mannose-rich oligosaccharide lysosomal storage, with downstream neurodevelopmental, immune/infectious, skeletal, craniofacial, auditory, ocular, and visceral phenotypes. All ORPHA:61 disease-level phenotypes are included with exact Orphanet snippets and frequency bands. Frequent and very frequent phenotype rows from the ORPHA:309282 infantile and ORPHA:309288 adult subtype records are included as subtype-specific phenotype assertions. Treatment sections are limited to evidence-backed velmanase alfa enzyme replacement, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, supportive care, and genetic counseling.
