Autophagy in GNE Myopathy
Muscle diseases represent specific muscle pathology. The characteristic features as hallmarks of diseases have been historically used to diagnose the patients. The “Rimmed vacuole (RV)” (Figures 1) is one of such characteristic features in certain groups of the diseases. This structure consists of the space (vacuole) and purple granules (rim) within myofibers, while the space is sometimes occup...
متن کاملGNE Myopathy in Turkish Sisters with a Novel Homozygous Mutation
Background. Hereditary inclusion body myopathy is caused by biallelic defects in the GNE gene located on chromosome 9p13. It generally affects adults older than 20 years of age. Methods and Results. In this study, we present two Turkish sisters with progressive myopathy and describe a novel mutation in the GNE gene. Both sisters had slightly higher levels of creatine kinase (CK) and muscle weak...
متن کاملIdentification of an Alu element‐mediated deletion in the promoter region of GNE in siblings with GNE myopathy
BACKGROUND GNE myopathy is a rare genetic disease characterized by progressive muscle atrophy and weakness. It is caused by biallelic mutations in the GNE gene that encodes for the bifunctional enzyme, uridine diphosphate (UDP)-N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc) kinase. Typical characteristics of GNE myopathy include progressive myopathy, first involving anter...
متن کاملGNE Myopathy: Two Clusters with History and Several Founder Mutations
GNE myopathy (previous names: HIBM, DMRV, IBM2) is a unique distal myopathy with quadriceps sparing. This recessively inherited myopathy has been diagnosed in various regions of the world with more than 150 disease-causing mutations already identified. Several of those are proven or suspected to be founder mutations in certain regional clusters and are described in this review. The review also ...
متن کاملNationwide patient registry for GNE myopathy in Japan
BACKGROUND GNE myopathy is a slowly progressive autosomal recessive myopathy caused by mutations in the GNE (glucosamine (UDP-N-acetyl)-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase) gene. This study aimed to (1) develop a nationwide patient registry for GNE myopathy in order to facilitate the planning of clinical trials and recruitment of candidates, and (2) gain further insight into the disease for ...
