Diagnostic Testing in Suspected Primary Mitochondrial Myopathy

نویسندگان

چکیده

The diagnosis of primary mitochondrial myopathy is often delayed by years due to non-specific clinical symptoms as well variable testing disorders. aim this review summarize and discuss the collective findings novel insights regarding diagnosing, testing, presentation (PMM). PMM results from a disruption oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) chain in mitochondria mutations DNA (mtDNA) or nuclear (nDNA). Although there are many named syndromes caused mutations, will focus on PMM, which disorders mainly affecting, but not limited to, skeletal muscle. Clinical may include muscle weakness, exercise intolerance, myalgia, rhabdomyolysis. respiratory function most frequently affected their high energy demand, multisystem dysfunction also occur, lead inclusion myopathies differential. Currently, no effective disease-modifying treatments, treatment programs typically only managing symptomatic manifestations disease. field has large unmet need options, diagnostic pathways better understood can help shorten journey aid disease management trial enrollment.

Scoliosis in Mitochondrial Myopathy

The mitochondrial myopathies include a diverse group of disorders characterized by morphological abnormalities of muscle mitochondria. Little is reported about spinal deformity associated with this syndrome. This study presents a case of scoliosis occurring in the setting of mitochondrial myopathies and explores the possible mechanisms between the 2 diseases. A previously unreported scoliosis i...

Increased mitochondrial mass in mitochondrial myopathy mice.

We have generated an animal model for mitochondrial myopathy by disrupting the gene for mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam) in skeletal muscle of the mouse. The knockout animals developed a myopathy with ragged-red muscle fibers, accumulation of abnormally appearing mitochondria, and progressively deteriorating respiratory chain function in skeletal muscle. Enzyme histochemistry, electr...

Mitochondrial dysfunction in myofibrillar myopathy

Myofibrillar myopathies (MFM) are characterised by focal myofibrillar destruction and accumulation of myofibrillar elements as protein aggregates. They are caused by mutations in the DES, MYOT, CRYAB, FLNC, BAG3, DNAJB6 and ZASP genes as well as other as yet unidentified genes. Previous studies have reported changes in mitochondrial morphology and cellular positioning, as well as clonally-expan...
