MPI-congenital disorder of glycosylation (MPI-CDG): comprehensive disease-characteristics report
Executive summary
MPI-CDG is an autosomal-recessive disorder of protein N-glycosylation caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in MPI, encoding mannose-phosphate isomerase. It is clinically distinctive among CDGs: gastrointestinal disease, congenital/developmental hepatic fibrosis, hypoglycemia—often hyperinsulinemic—and mixed coagulopathy predominate, while intellectual disability and primary neurologic impairment are usually absent. Oral D-mannose bypasses the metabolic block and commonly produces rapid improvement in diarrhea, protein-losing enteropathy, hypoglycemia, and coagulation abnormalities, but it does not reliably prevent progressive liver fibrosis or portal hypertension. Evidence remains dominated by case reports, small series, expert consensus, and approximately 35–52 published patients rather than controlled trials.

Table (click to expand)
| Topic | Key facts | Ontology / IDs | Key sources |
|---|---|---|---|
| Identity / overview | MPI-congenital disorder of glycosylation (MPI-CDG) is a rare disorder of protein N-glycosylation caused by pathogenic variants in MPI; unlike many other CDGs, it is dominated by gastrointestinal, hepatic, endocrine, and coagulation manifestations, with usually no intellectual disability or major neurologic impairment. Former names include CDG-Ib, CDG type Ib, carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type Ib, phosphomannose isomerase deficiency / mannose phosphate isomerase deficiency, protein-losing enteropathy-hepatic fibrosis syndrome, and Saguenay-Lac Saint-Jean syndrome. | OMIM: 602579; MeSH in trial browse: “Congenital disorder of glycosylation type 1B”; suggested disease label: MPI-CDG | (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 1-3, NCT03404869 chunk 1) |
| Inheritance / gene | Autosomal recessive disorder due to biallelic pathogenic variants in MPI on chromosome 15q. The MPI gene has 8 exons and spans ~5 kb. | Suggested gene: MPI; inheritance: AR | (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 1-3, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19) |
| Core mechanism | MPI catalyzes fructose-6-phosphate ↔ mannose-6-phosphate, the first step toward GDP-mannose synthesis for N-glycosylation. MPI deficiency lowers intracellular mannose availability; in patients, endogenous mannose is insufficient, leading to protein N-hypoglycosylation. Consensus guideline notes plasma mannose is <10 μmol/L in MPI-CDG vs 50–100 μmol/L in healthy individuals; glycosylation can be normalized when serum mannose exceeds ~200 μmol/L. Excess mannose can cause Man-6-P accumulation, glycolytic inhibition, ATP depletion, and neurologic toxicity (“honeybee effect”). | Suggested GO terms: protein N-linked glycosylation, mannose metabolic process; suggested CHEBI concept: D-mannose | (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 3-4) |
| Typical onset / course | Symptoms begin in infancy in the large majority; consensus review found 93% infantile onset with mean onset 1.2 years, but adolescent presentations and asymptomatic adults have been reported. In the 2023 review, onset ranged birth to 15 years, with 43/50 cases starting before age 2. Diagnostic delay ranged 0–30 years (median 2.15 years). | Suggested onset terms: congenital/infantile; chronic multisystem course | (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 4-6, lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 1-2) |
| Hallmark phenotypes (2023 frequencies) | 2023 literature review of 52 patients reported: chronic diarrhea 41/46, vomiting 23/27, hepatomegaly 39/44, hepatic fibrosis 20/37, protein-losing enteropathy 30/36, elevated transaminases 24/34, hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia 24/34, hypoalbuminemia 33/38, prolonged coagulation 26/30, splenomegaly 13/21, non-pitting edema 14/20, failure to thrive 13/36, portal hypertension 4/9, epilepsy 2/17, thrombosis 12/14, elevated leukocytes 5; intellectual disability 0/28. | Reliable phenotype suggestions: hepatomegaly, diarrhea, vomiting, protein-losing enteropathy, hypoglycemia, hypoalbuminemia, hepatic fibrosis, portal hypertension, thrombosis | (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 1-2, lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 3-5) |
| Diagnostics | First-line biochemical screen: serum/plasma transferrin isoelectric focusing (TIEF) showing CDG type I pattern (decreased tetrasialotransferrin, increased disialo-/asialotransferrin); reported 100% sensitivity in described genotyped patients, but non-specific vs other CDG-I disorders. HPLC/capillary electrophoresis for CDT% also reported 100% sensitivity in described patients. Confirmation: MPI enzyme assay in fibroblasts/leukocytes or MPI gene testing; enzyme activity usually <10% of normal, though 14–21% residual activity has been reported in some severe cases. Differential diagnosis includes PMM2-CDG, galactosemia, hereditary fructose intolerance, liver disease, chronic alcohol abuse, and other causes of hypoglycemia/PLE/hepatopathy. | Suggested lab/ontology terms: transferrin IEF, carbohydrate-deficient transferrin; gene: MPI | (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 16-17, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11) |
| First-line treatment / dose | Standard disease-specific treatment is oral D-mannose. Consensus recommended dose: 150–170 mg/kg/dose, 4–5 times daily. In the 2023 review, 26/30 treated patients improved clinically/laboratorily; symptoms in the index case resolved within 1 week. Monitoring every 3 months during oral therapy includes unconjugated bilirubin, blood count, HbA1C, and mannose levels; target mannose levels suggested as T0 >20 μmol/L and T1h >100 μmol/L. | Suggested treatment term: D-mannose; NCIT suggestion only where available concept exists for mannose | (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 19-20, lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 2-3, lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 5-6) |
| Key limitation / persistent liver disease | Mannose improves many clinical and biochemical abnormalities but does not reliably halt liver disease. Consensus guideline states patients may still develop progressive liver fibrosis, likely because characteristic lesions reflect ductal plate malformation / congenital hepatic fibrosis, which do not respond to mannose. Selected severe cases may require liver transplantation, especially for portal hypertension with hepatopulmonary syndrome. | Suggested anatomy: liver; suggested pathology: hepatic fibrosis, portal hypertension | (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 6-8) |
| Prognosis / mortality | Consensus review of 35 patients found mortality 23.5% (8/35); all deaths occurred in infancy/early childhood at 4 months to 5 years (median 2.2 years). Causes, when known, included hepatic failure (n=2) and sepsis (n=1); many deaths occurred before diagnosis/treatment. In the 2023 review, 8/11 untreated patients died, supporting major benefit from timely diagnosis and mannose therapy. | Suggested outcome terms: mortality, hepatic failure, sepsis | (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 4-6, lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 5-6) |
| Clinical trial / implementation | NCT03404869: “Study of ORL-1M (D-mannose) in Patients With CDG-Ib,” sponsor Orpha Labs; Phase 1/2, single-group, open-label, estimated n=5; primary outcome: improvement in hypoglycemia, diarrhea and vomiting at 6 months; secondary outcome: improved serum transferrin glycosylation at 30 days. Registry overall status is currently listed UNKNOWN; last known status RECRUITING; first posted 2018-01-19. | NCT03404869 | (NCT03404869 chunk 1) |
| Animal / experimental models | Zebrafish mpi morphants: 13% residual Mpi activity at 4 dpf, 50% embryonic lethality by 4 dpf, and multisystem abnormalities in 82% of survivors (small eyes, dysmorphic jaws, pericardial edema, small liver, curled tails); phenotypes were rescued by mannose only if given before 24 hpf. Mouse models: complete Mpi knockout is embryonic lethal; hypomorphic mice with patient-like residual activity appeared largely normal but had ~15% embryonic lethality. Mannose exposure worsened outcomes, reducing litter size and survival to weaning by 40% and 66%, respectively, and ~50% of survivors developed ocular defects/blindness, highlighting species-specific toxicity and caution in pregnancy. | Suggested model systems: Danio rerio, Mus musculus | (chu2013azebrafishmodel pages 1-2, sharma2014mannosesupplementsinduce pages 1-2, brasil2018cdgtherapiesfrom pages 3-4) |

It combined a systematic review with opinions from 21 experts across nine countries; the authors emphasized that most evidence was low-level because it consisted of case reports and case series. The newest detailed synthesis retrieved was Lu et al., published April 2023 in Frontiers in Pediatrics, DOI 10.3389/fped.2023.1150367, which reviewed 52 reported patients from 17 countries. No MPI-CDG-specific 2024 natural-history cohort, randomized trial, single-cell study, or spatial-omics study was identified in the retrieved literature.

1. Disease information
Definition and identifiers
MPI-CDG is a Mendelian disorder of protein N-glycosylation caused by deficient mannose-phosphate isomerase activity. The consensus guideline explicitly describes it as “a rare subtype of congenital disorders of protein N-glycosylation” characterized by pathogenic MPI variants and dominant gastrointestinal and hepatic involvement without the usual intellectual or neurologic impairment seen in many CDGs. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 1-3)
- OMIM phenotype: 602579.
- Gene: MPI, chromosome 15q; eight exons spanning approximately 5 kb.
- MeSH/ClinicalTrials.gov browse term: “Congenital disorder of glycosylation type 1B,” MeSH C535740.
- MONDO: A specific MONDO identifier was not verified in the retrieved source text and should therefore be resolved directly against the current MONDO release before database deposition.
- Orphanet: A disease-specific ORPHA number was not verified in the retrieved evidence.
- ICD-10/ICD-11: No uniquely disease-specific code was established in the retrieved sources; MPI-CDG is generally captured under broader congenital glycosylation/metabolic-disorder categories.
Synonyms include CDG-Ib, CDG1B, congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ib, carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type Ib, phosphomannose isomerase deficiency, mannose-phosphate isomerase deficiency, protein-losing enteropathy–hepatic fibrosis syndrome, and Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean syndrome.

Provenance
This entry is based on aggregated disease-level resources, published case reports/series, an international expert guideline, and a trial registry—not individual-level EHR data. The 2023 frequencies are literature-derived denominators that vary by phenotype because not every feature was assessed in every patient. (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 3-5, lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 1-2)
2. Etiology, risk, protective factors, and gene–environment interaction
Primary cause
The sole established primary cause is biallelic germline loss-of-function/hypomorphic variation in MPI. MPI catalyzes fructose-6-phosphate ↔ mannose-6-phosphate; reduced activity limits mannose-6-phosphate and downstream GDP-mannose availability for lipid-linked oligosaccharide synthesis and N-glycosylation. Pathogenic alleles are predominantly missense variants, consistent with survival requiring residual activity. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 3-4, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19)
Genetic risk factors
Risk is highest for a child inheriting one pathogenic allele from each carrier parent. Among 28 genotyped published patients in the 2020 review, 13 were homozygous; parental consanguinity was reported for nine patients. Twenty pathogenic variants comprised 17 missense variants, two frameshift-causing variants, and one splice defect. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19)
Potentially mild p.Arg219Gln homozygosity was observed in two asymptomatic adults, suggesting incomplete penetrance or substantial modifier effects. However, neither residual enzyme activity nor carbohydrate-deficient transferrin reliably predicted clinical severity, and no validated modifier gene is known. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19)
Environmental and protective factors
There are no established toxins, infections, lifestyle exposures, age, or sex factors that cause MPI-CDG. Exogenous dietary mannose is protective at the biochemical level because it bypasses the endogenous MPI-dependent route. Conversely, dehydration and acute infection can precipitate hypoglycemia and destabilize the mixed coagulation defect, increasing thrombosis risk. Alcohol and hepatotoxic drugs can add secondary liver injury and should be avoided. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 13-14)
A clinically important gene–environment interaction is dose-dependent mannose rescue versus toxicity. Therapeutic oral mannose restores substrate for glycosylation, but excessive intracellular mannose-6-phosphate can inhibit hexokinase, phosphoglucose isomerase, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, reduce glycolytic flux, deplete ATP, and cause energy failure—the “honeybee effect.” Pregnancy exposure warrants caution because adverse developmental effects occurred in MPI-deficient mice, although comparable human teratogenicity has not been demonstrated. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 3-4, sharma2014mannosesupplementsinduce pages 1-2)
No validated protective variant, environmental prevention strategy, or lifestyle measure prevents disease occurrence in a person with a disease-causing biallelic genotype.
3. Phenotypes
Quantitative clinical spectrum
The 2023 review reported the following frequencies: chronic diarrhea 41/46 (89%); vomiting 23/27 (85%); hepatomegaly 39/44 (89%); hepatic fibrosis 20/37 (54%); protein-losing enteropathy 30/36 (83%); elevated transaminases 24/34 (71%); hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia 24/34 (71%); hypoalbuminemia 33/38 (87%); prolonged coagulation 26/30 (87%); splenomegaly 13/21 (62%); non-pitting edema 14/20 (70%); failure to thrive 13/36 (36%); portal hypertension 4/9 (44%); epilepsy/seizures 2/17 (12%); thrombosis 12/14 (86%); and intellectual disability 0/28. These proportions may be enriched by reporting and ascertainment bias and should not be interpreted as population prevalence. (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 3-5, lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 1-2)
Phenotype characterization and ontology suggestions
- Chronic or cyclic diarrhea/vomiting: usually infantile, recurrent or episodic, ranging from moderate to life-threatening dehydration; often the presenting feature. Suggested HPO: Diarrhea HP:0002014, Vomiting HP:0002013. It causes recurrent admissions, feeding difficulty, and major family burden. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11)
- Protein-losing enteropathy: infantile and fluctuating, causing hypoalbuminemia, edema, malnutrition, and sometimes hypogammaglobulinemia. Stool alpha-1-antitrypsin may be 3- to 20-fold elevated. Suggested HPO: Protein-losing enteropathy HP:0002243, Hypoalbuminemia HP:0003073, Edema HP:0000969. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11)
- Failure to thrive/growth restriction: typically secondary to enteropathy, vomiting, and hypoglycemia; approximately two-thirds in the older consensus dataset but 13/36 in the expanded 2023 review. Suggested HPO: Failure to thrive HP:0001508, Growth delay HP:0001510. (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 1-2, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11)
- Hepatomegaly, fibrosis, and portal hypertension: chronic and potentially progressive despite therapy. Fibrosis may produce splenomegaly, thrombocytopenia, esophageal varices, hepatopulmonary syndrome, and variceal hemorrhage. Suggested HPO: Hepatomegaly HP:0002240, Hepatic fibrosis HP:0001395, Portal hypertension HP:0001409, Splenomegaly HP:0001744. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 6-8, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10)
- Transaminase elevation: commonly 1.5–5 times the upper limit, but as high as 30–40-fold during acute decompensation; bilirubin and GGT are often normal. Suggested HPO: Elevated hepatic transaminase HP:0002910. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 6-8)
- Hypoglycemia/hyperinsulinism: onset from the perinatal period through three years, mean 6.8 months in the consensus review; severity ranges from asymptomatic biochemical hypoglycemia to apnea, unresponsiveness, or seizures. Suggested HPO: Hypoglycemia HP:0001943, Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia HP:0000825. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13)
- Mixed coagulopathy: almost constant in the consensus experience; commonly low antithrombin, protein C, factor XI, and sometimes protein S. It can produce both thrombosis and bleeding in the same patient. Suggested HPO: Abnormality of coagulation HP:0001928, Thrombosis HP:0001977, and Gastrointestinal hemorrhage HP:0002239. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 13-14)
- Neurologic findings: primary neurologic disease is atypical. Mild developmental delay was reported in four cases and hypotonia in five; seizures were secondary to hypoglycemia, cerebral thrombosis, fever, or intravenous-mannose toxicity. Brain imaging was normal in ten reported patients, without cerebellar hypoplasia. Suggested HPO only when present: Global developmental delay HP:0001263, Hypotonia HP:0001252, Seizure HP:0001250. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 13-14)
- Renal/cardiac/immune findings: renal echogenicity, nephromegaly, cysts, or tubular acidosis occurred sporadically; one severe patient had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Recurrent unusual infections and PLE-related hypogammaglobulinemia occur, but a primary MPI-specific immunodeficiency is unproven. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 14-16)
Formal EQ-5D, SF-36, PROMIS, or disease-specific quality-of-life measurements were not identified. Nonetheless, recurrent admissions, diarrhea, hypoglycemia surveillance, bleeding/thrombosis risk, and four-to-five-times-daily mannose dosing clearly affect daily function and treatment burden.
4. Genetic and molecular information
Gene and protein
MPI encodes a mainly cytosolic enzyme that can also localize to the plasma membrane. The enzyme initiates endogenous mannose production by interconverting fructose-6-phosphate and mannose-6-phosphate. The disorder results from reduced enzymatic function, not a gain-of-function or dominant-negative mechanism. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 3-4)
Variant spectrum
In the 2020 consensus dataset, three recurrent missense variants accounted for approximately half of known alleles:
- c.656G>A (p.Arg219Gln): 12 alleles; 21.4%.
- c.457G>A (p.Arg152Gln): 9 alleles; 16.1%.
- c.884G>A (p.Arg295His): 8 alleles; 14.3%.
Other reported variants included p.Ile398Thr, p.Ser102Leu, p.Met138Thr, p.Met51Thr, p.Asp131Asn, p.Ile140Thr, p.Ala288Val, p.Gln14Pro, p.Arg56fs, p.Tyr129Cys, p.Glu156Lys, c.488-1G>C, p.Gly250Ser, p.Tyr255Cys, p.Gly281del, p.Arg418His, and p.Arg418Cys. The 2023 case added compound heterozygous c.455G>T (p.Arg152Leu), classified as likely pathogenic, and c.884G>A (p.Arg295His), classified as pathogenic. (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 2-3, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19)
These are constitutional germline variants. No somatic disease mechanism is established. Exact current ClinVar assertions and gnomAD allele frequencies should be retrieved variant-by-variant from live databases; the source set did not provide dependable contemporary population frequencies.
Genotype–phenotype, modifiers, and epigenetics
Clinical severity is not reliably predicted by genotype, residual enzyme activity, or CDT value. Homozygous p.Arg219Gln may be mild or asymptomatic, but this observation rests on very few adults. No validated modifier gene, epigenetic signature, repeat expansion, aneuploidy, recurrent copy-number variant, or structural chromosomal cause is established. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19)
Suggested molecular ontology: GO:0006487 protein N-linked glycosylation, GO:0009298 GDP-mannose biosynthetic process where applicable, GO:0005975 carbohydrate metabolic process, and MPI enzyme activity/mannose-6-phosphate isomerase activity. Database curators should validate exact GO identifiers against the current release.
5. Environmental, lifestyle, and infectious information
MPI-CDG is not caused by pollution, radiation, occupational exposure, smoking, alcohol, diet, or infection. Acute gastrointestinal infection, poor intake, dehydration, surgery, and fasting can nevertheless trigger metabolic and hemostatic decompensation. Alcohol and hepatotoxic medications are avoidable secondary insults in a disease with progressive liver vulnerability. Hepatitis A and B vaccination is recommended to prevent additional hepatic injury. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10)
No infectious agent is etiologic, and the disease is neither contagious nor zoonotic.
6. Mechanism and pathophysiology
Upstream causal chain
- Biallelic hypomorphic MPI variants reduce mannose-phosphate isomerase activity.
- Conversion of fructose-6-phosphate to mannose-6-phosphate falls.
- GDP-mannose and lipid-linked oligosaccharide supply become insufficient.
- Nascent secretory and membrane proteins receive too few N-glycan chains.
- Hypoglycosylated proteins have altered folding, stability, trafficking, secretion, or function.
- Tissue-specific consequences emerge in enterocytes, hepatocytes/biliary developmental structures, pancreatic beta-cell physiology, vascular/hemostatic proteins, and endocrine transport proteins. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 3-4, chu2013azebrafishmodel pages 1-2)
Plasma mannose was reported as <10 μmol/L in MPI-CDG versus 50–100 μmol/L in controls. Serum mannose above approximately 200 μmol/L can normalize glycosylation experimentally/clinically, explaining the substrate-bypass treatment. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 3-4)
Downstream organ mechanisms
- Intestine: reduced glycoproteins on enterocyte membranes and/or intestinal lymphangiectasia compromise barrier integrity, causing protein leakage, hypoalbuminemia, edema, immunoglobulin loss, and malnutrition. Suggested cells: enterocyte (CL:0000584); processes: epithelial barrier maintenance, protein absorption, glycoprotein biosynthesis. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11)
- Liver/biliary tract: the characteristic lesion resembles congenital hepatic fibrosis with ductal-plate configuration and von Meyenburg complexes. This likely represents a developmental malformation, explaining why fibrosis and portal hypertension can progress even after systemic biochemical rescue. Suggested cells include hepatocyte (CL:0000182) and cholangiocyte; processes include bile-duct morphogenesis, extracellular-matrix organization, and fibrosis. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 6-8, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10)
- Pancreatic endocrine system: hyperinsulinism may reflect hypoglycosylation of membrane proteins such as SUR1, but the exact mechanism remains uncertain. In vitro murine beta-cell evidence shows that hypoglycosylation can alter insulin secretion. Suggested cell: pancreatic beta cell (CL:0000169). (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13)
- Hemostasis: hypoglycosylation reduces abundance/stability of antithrombin, protein C, factor XI, and protein S; increased platelet aggregation may compound the imbalance. Infection, dehydration, PLE, and hepatic dysfunction further destabilize hemostasis. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 13-14)
- Endocrine transport/growth: hypoglycosylated IGFBP-3, acid-labile subunit, and thyroxine-binding globulin can contribute to growth restriction and abnormal laboratory hormone values. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11)
Subcellular and metabolic localization
MPI acts predominantly in the cytosol upstream of endoplasmic-reticulum N-glycan assembly. Relevant compartments are cytosol, ER membrane/lumen, secretory pathway, and plasma membrane. Suggested GO cellular components include cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum.
Molecular profiling and advanced technologies
Transferrin glycoform profiling is the principal disease biomarker. A 2021 longitudinal study of 32 CDG patients, including three with MPI-CDG, found that mannose in two MPI-CDG patients significantly lowered asialo-, monosialo-, and disialotransferrin while increasing tetra- and pentasialotransferrin toward reference ranges. (bogdanska2021clinicalbiochemicaland pages 1-2)
No robust MPI-CDG-specific transcriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic, lipidomic, single-cell, spatial-transcriptomic, CRISPR-screen, or integrated multi-omics signature was identified. This is an important research gap rather than evidence of absence.
7. Anatomical structures affected
Primary organs and tissues
- Small intestine and gastrointestinal tract: enterocyte surface and intestinal lymphatics; UBERON suggestions: small intestine, duodenum, intestinal epithelium.
- Liver and intrahepatic bile ducts: portal tracts, ductal plate, biliary structures, and hepatic vasculature; UBERON: liver UBERON:0002107 and bile duct.
- Pancreatic islets: beta-cell insulin regulation; UBERON: endocrine pancreas/pancreatic islet.
- Blood and vascular system: circulating glycoproteins, platelets, and venous vasculature.
Secondary involvement includes spleen from portal hypertension; esophagus through varices; lung through hepatopulmonary syndrome; brain secondary to hypoglycemia or thrombosis; kidney and heart in occasional cases. There is no characteristic lateralization. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 6-8, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 14-16, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 13-14)
At the subcellular level, the initial metabolic block is cytosolic, whereas the glycan-assembly consequence is expressed in the ER/secretory pathway and on secreted or cell-surface glycoproteins.
8. Temporal development
Symptoms begin in infancy in 93% of patients in the 2020 review, with mean onset at 1.2 years. The 2023 expanded review found onset from birth to age 15 and onset before age two in 43/50. Two adolescent presentations and asymptomatic adults into their early forties demonstrate very variable expressivity. (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 1-2, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 4-6)
The gastrointestinal and hypoglycemic course is often episodic, with infection, fasting, or dehydration producing exacerbations. Mannose usually improves clinical symptoms within approximately one week, while biochemical stabilization takes months. Hepatic fibrosis is chronic and can remain progressive despite correction of extrahepatic features. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 19-20)
There is no validated staging system. Pragmatic stages are: early gastrointestinal/endocrine presentation; established multisystem disease with PLE/coagulopathy; and advanced portal-hypertensive disease with varices or hepatopulmonary syndrome. Early diagnosis is the critical therapeutic window; animal evidence also suggests developmental timing matters, but the zebrafish pre-24-hour rescue window cannot be directly extrapolated to humans. (chu2013azebrafishmodel pages 1-2)
9. Inheritance and population
MPI-CDG is autosomal recessive. For two confirmed carriers, each pregnancy has a 25% probability of an affected child, 50% probability of a carrier child, and 25% probability of inheriting neither familial pathogenic allele. Anticipation is not expected. Germline mosaicism has not emerged as a characteristic mechanism, although low residual recurrence risk from parental mosaicism cannot be excluded generically.
The 2020 review included 35 patients from 30 families and described the disease as panethnic. The 2023 review found 52 patients across 17 countries. True prevalence, incidence, carrier frequency, and population-specific penetrance remain unknown. (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 1-2, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 3-4, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 4-6)
The 2020 sample included 18 females and nine males, with sex unspecified in eight; the authors considered the apparent 2:1 ratio likely due to small sample size rather than sex-biased biology. Consanguinity contributed to homozygosity in some families. Although “Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean syndrome” reflects an early regional cluster, no sufficiently quantified founder prevalence was retrieved. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 4-6, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19)
10. Diagnostics
When to suspect MPI-CDG
Test children or adults with combinations of recurrent/cyclic diarrhea or vomiting, PLE/hypoalbuminemia, hepatomegaly or congenital hepatic fibrosis, hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, unexplained prolonged coagulation, low antithrombin/protein C/factor XI, thrombosis, or portal hypertension—especially when neurodevelopment is normal. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 1-3, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11)
Biochemical testing
- Serum/plasma transferrin isoelectric focusing: preferred screen. The type-I pattern shows reduced tetrasialotransferrin and increased disialo- and asialotransferrin. Sensitivity was reported as 100% among described genotyped patients, but specificity is poor because PMM2-CDG and other CDG-I disorders are indistinguishable. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 14-16, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 16-17)
- HPLC or capillary electrophoresis/CDT%: quantitative alternatives, also reported as 100% sensitive in described cases. CDT can be 38–50% in severe disease versus 7–20% in oligo-/asymptomatic adults. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 16-17)
- MPI enzyme activity: confirmatory testing in fresh leukocytes or fibroblasts. Most reported patients had <10% normal activity, although 14–21% occurred in some severe cases. Parental activity was typically intermediate, 30–83%, median 50%. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 16-17)
- Molecular confirmation: sequence MPI by single-gene testing, a CDG/hypoglycemia/liver-disease panel, WES, or WGS. Sanger confirmation and parental segregation are appropriate. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19)
WES diagnosed the 2023 index case and is useful for atypical disease. WGS may detect noncoding or structural alleles missed by exon-focused assays, but disease-specific diagnostic-yield data are unavailable. CMA, karyotyping, FISH, mitochondrial sequencing, and repeat-expansion testing are not routine tests because MPI-CDG is usually a small-sequence-variant disorder.
False positives and differential diagnosis
Transferrin variants, sample contamination by neuraminidase-producing microorganisms, untreated galactosemia, hereditary fructose intolerance, severe infection, chronic liver disease, and alcohol exposure can produce abnormal transferrin patterns. Repeat testing on an independent sample, neuraminidase treatment, and parental transferrin analysis can resolve some ambiguities. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 14-16, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 16-17)
Clinical differentials include PMM2-CDG; PGM1-, ALG6-, TMEM199-, CCDC115-, and ATP6AP1-CDG; celiac disease; intestinal lymphangiectasia; inflammatory/infectious enteropathy; glycogen storage disease; fatty-acid oxidation disorders; galactosemia; hereditary fructose intolerance; congenital hyperinsulinism; alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency; Wilson disease; cystic fibrosis; congenital hepatic fibrosis/ARPKD; and other metabolic liver disorders. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 6-8, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11)
Surveillance after diagnosis
Consensus recommendations include liver chemistry, AFP, prothrombin time, and ultrasound every six months; annual elastography when transaminases remain elevated; annual endoscopy initially in portal hypertension and thereafter at least every three years; albumin every three months during active PLE; glucose monitoring and critical hypoglycemia samples; annual broad hemostasis testing; and annual thyroid/IGF-axis, renal, immune, developmental, and nutritional assessment as clinically indicated. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 6-8, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 4-6, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13)
Screening
MPI-CDG is not a standard population newborn-screening condition. The Early Check trial retrieved in the search was broad expanded newborn screening and does not establish routine MPI-CDG screening. Cascade testing, carrier testing, prenatal diagnosis, and preimplantation genetic testing are feasible once familial variants are known.
11. Outcome and prognosis
In the 2020 review, mortality was 23.5% (8/35). All deaths occurred between four months and five years, median 2.2 years; known causes included hepatic failure in two and sepsis in one. Six of eight died before the disorder and mannose treatment were recognized. The 2023 review found 8/11 untreated patients died, compared with improvement in 26/30 treated patients. These uncontrolled comparisons strongly favor early treatment but are vulnerable to era, severity, and publication bias. (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 5-6, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 4-6)
Survival into adulthood, normal pregnancy, and even asymptomatic adulthood are documented. No reliable five- or ten-year survival curve or life-expectancy estimate exists. Prognosis is driven by timeliness of diagnosis, severity of PLE and hypoglycemia, infection/dehydration exposure, thrombosis/bleeding, and especially progression of congenital hepatic fibrosis and portal hypertension. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 4-6, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19)
Mannose offers substantial recovery potential for gastrointestinal, endocrine, and coagulation abnormalities, but established ductal-plate malformation and fibrosis may be irreversible. Formal disability and quality-of-life datasets are absent.
12. Treatment
Oral D-mannose: standard disease-specific therapy
The consensus dose is 150–170 mg/kg per dose orally four to five times daily, started as soon as diagnosis is made. Oral mannose enters a complementary pathway through hexokinase to form mannose-6-phosphate, bypassing deficient MPI. Clinical response often begins within a week; biochemical abnormalities may take months to stabilize. In the 2023 case, diarrhea and vomiting resolved completely within one week without reported adverse effects. (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 2-3, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 19-20)
Effects: regression of diarrhea, vomiting, PLE, hypoalbuminemia, hypoglycemia, and coagulopathy; improved growth and transferrin glycosylation. In the 2023 synthesis, 26/30 treated patients improved. However, abnormal transferrin profiles rarely normalize completely, and liver fibrosis may progress. (lu2023mannosephosphateisomerase pages 5-6, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 16-17, bogdanska2021clinicalbiochemicaland pages 1-2)
Monitoring: every three months, assess unconjugated bilirubin, CBC, HbA1C, and mannose. Suggested targets are trough/T0 >20 μmol/L and one-hour/T1 >100 μmol/L. Abdominal pain and diarrhea occurred in approximately 40% and usually improved spontaneously or after dose adjustment. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 19-20)
Suggested annotations: CHEBI D-mannose; NCIT intervention concept Mannose or Dietary Supplementation, subject to terminology-service validation.
Intravenous mannose
Not recommended for stable disease. It may be considered only in life-threatening situations when oral treatment is impossible, using continuous infusion up to 1 g/kg/day with individualized IV glucose. Severe hemolysis occurred in one patient and seizures/stupor in another; daily neurologic, bilirubin, CBC, and hexosuria monitoring is required. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 19-20, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 17-19)
Hypoglycemia management
Frequent feeding and complex carbohydrate supplementation are useful. Acute illness, perioperative fasting, or inability to feed requires continuous IV glucose to maintain glucose above 4 mmol/L; severe episodes target 4–6 mmol/L. Confirmed hyperinsulinism may require diazoxide 4–15 mg/kg/day in three or four divided doses. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 11-13, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10)
Gastrointestinal and nutritional support
Severe malnutrition may require enteral tube feeding or parenteral nutrition. Albumin infusion can bridge severe PLE with edema; the consensus table specifies 20% albumin when serum albumin is <2 g/dL. Immunoglobulin replacement may be used for significant PLE-related hypogammaglobulinemia. Experimental heparin improved PLE in one report but carries bleeding risk and is not routine disease-modifying treatment. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 10-11)
Coagulation management
Mannose usually corrects coagulation abnormalities within weeks. Treat thrombosis with unfractionated or low-molecular-weight heparin; vitamin-K antagonists require caution in patients with ulcers or varices. Severe bleeding may require local control and fresh frozen plasma. Factor XI concentrate and recombinant factor VIIa are discouraged because of thrombosis risk. Perioperative plans should be individualized with hematology input. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 13-14)
Liver-directed treatment
Monitor and treat varices and portal-hypertensive complications according to standard hepatology practice. Liver transplantation is an option for selected patients with liver failure or portal hypertension with hepatopulmonary syndrome. In the reported transplant recipient, pulmonary function, coagulation, and transferrin IEF normalized, but extrahepatic MPI deficiency persisted. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 6-8, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10)
Suggested NCIT concepts include Liver Transplantation, Parenteral Nutrition, Albumin Infusion, Diazoxide, Heparin, and Glucose Infusion, with exact codes requiring current NCIT validation.
Experimental and advanced therapy
No approved gene, RNA, genome-editing, enzyme-replacement, or cell therapy was identified. NCT03404869, “Study of ORL-1M (D-mannose) in Patients With CDG-Ib,” is a Phase 1/2, open-label, single-group study with estimated enrollment of five participants younger than 18. The primary endpoint was improvement in hypoglycemia, diarrhea, and vomiting at six months; the secondary endpoint was transferrin-glycosylation improvement at 30 days. It started March 31, 2015, was first posted January 19, 2018, and is currently listed as unknown status, last known recruiting. No posted results were retrieved. Registry URL: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03404869. (NCT03404869 chunk 1)
13. Prevention
Primary prevention of disease in an already conceived affected individual is not available because the cause is inherited. Reproductive prevention options include carrier testing for relatives, genetic counseling, prenatal diagnosis, and preimplantation genetic testing once familial variants are established.
Secondary prevention centers on early recognition and prompt mannose therapy before severe PLE, hypoglycemic brain injury, thrombosis, or irreversible portal-hypertensive complications. There is no established population newborn screen.
Tertiary prevention includes avoiding fasting and dehydration; sick-day glucose plans; rapid treatment of infection; regular liver, glucose, nutrition, and coagulation surveillance; thromboprophylaxis in appropriate high-risk settings; hepatitis A/B vaccination; alcohol abstinence; avoidance of hepatotoxic drugs; and screening/treatment of esophageal varices. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 6-8, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 13-14)
No MPI-CDG-specific vaccine, public-health sanitation measure, or environmental remediation is applicable.
14. Other species and natural disease
No naturally occurring MPI-CDG-equivalent veterinary disease in a defined companion-animal breed or wildlife population was established in the retrieved evidence. Accordingly, no VBO breed annotation is justified. There is no transmission or zoonotic potential.
The MPI pathway is evolutionarily conserved from fungi and invertebrates to fish, mice, and humans, but comparative observations such as natural mannose toxicity in honeybees are mechanistic analogies rather than homologous clinical disease. Suggested taxa for experimental evidence are Homo sapiens NCBI:9606, Mus musculus NCBI:10090, and Danio rerio NCBI:7955.
15. Model organisms and experimental systems
Mouse
Complete Mpi knockout causes embryonic death around E11.5 with placental and embryonic abnormalities; mannose cannot rescue it because toxic mannose-6-phosphate accumulates and inhibits ATP production. This model demonstrates developmental essentiality but poorly reproduces viable human hypomorphic disease. (sharma2014mannosesupplementsinduce pages 1-2, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 20-21)
A patient-relevant hypomorphic mouse had near-patient residual activity and appeared mostly normal, apart from approximately 15% embryonic lethality. Providing pregnant dams 1–2% mannose reduced litter size by 40% and survival to weaning by 66%; 50% of survivors developed eye defects. Starting mannose after eye development avoided ocular toxicity. These findings support a developmental window and pregnancy caution, but the lack of human-like liver/intestinal disease and species-specific mannose sensitivity limit translational generalization. The paper was published in January 2014, FASEB Journal 28:1854–1869, DOI 10.1096/fj.13-245514. (sharma2014mannosesupplementsinduce pages 1-2)
Zebrafish
Morpholino-mediated mpi depletion generated 13% residual Mpi activity at four days post-fertilization, reduced lipid-linked oligosaccharides and N-glycans, 50% embryonic lethality, and abnormalities in 82% of surviving larvae, including small eyes, dysmorphic jaws, pericardial edema, small liver, and curled tails. Mannose rescued the phenotype only when provided before 24 hours post-fertilization. The model is useful for developmental timing, glycan biochemistry, and treatment screening, but transient morpholino knockdown and embryonic phenotypes do not reproduce chronic human portal-hypertensive disease. Published in 2013, Disease Models & Mechanisms 6:95–105, DOI 10.1242/dmm.010116. (chu2013azebrafishmodel pages 1-2)
Cellular models
Patient fibroblasts and fresh leukocytes are used for enzyme activity and mannose-rescue studies. They reproduce reduced MPI activity and glycosylation but cannot model multicellular intestinal leakage, ductal-plate malformation, portal hypertension, or whole-body hypoglycemia. No MPI-CDG iPSC, organoid, humanized mouse, or validated CRISPR knock-in model with comprehensive human phenotype recapitulation was identified.
Key expert interpretation and research priorities
The international consensus is that oral mannose is strongly indicated despite low formal evidence grades because the biochemical rationale, rapid within-patient response, long clinical experience, and untreated mortality are compelling. The most consequential misconception is that biochemical correction equals cure: MPI-CDG remains a progressive hepatic disorder in some patients because congenital ductal-plate pathology appears mannose-insensitive. (cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 8-10, cechova2020consensusguidelinefor pages 19-20)
Priorities for 2025-era research include an international prospective natural-history registry; validated patient-reported outcomes; current variant-level ClinVar/gnomAD curation; pharmacokinetic optimization or sustained-release mannose; pregnancy safety data; biomarkers predicting fibrosis and portal hypertension; liver/intestinal organoids; and controlled studies separating mannose-responsive systemic hypoglycosylation from mannose-resistant developmental liver pathology.
