Inclusion-Body Myositis Associated with Alzheimer's Disease
Sporadic inclusion-body myositis (s-IBM) is a myopathy that is characterized by progressive weakness and muscle pathology demonstrating inflammation and rimmed vacuoles. In addition, similar to the pathology observed in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease, the deposition of beta-amyloid and phosphorylated tau proteins in muscle fibers has been reported. These shared pathologic featu...

متن کاملInclusion Body Myositis
Inclusion body myositis is an insidious, slowly progressive myopathy of middle-aged and older individuals. Because of these characteristics, diagnosis is often delayed. Affected muscle is marked by the presence of rimmed vacuoles, inclusions, and an inflammatory infiltrate largely made up of CD8 T lymphocytes and macrophages. The inclusions contain beta-amyloid and phosphorylated tau protein, a...
متن کاملInclusion body myositis.
The histochemical and ultrastructural study of muscle biopsies of two patients with a chronic muscle weakness and wasting showed particular changes in muscle fibers: (1) peripheral lined vacuoles, containing whorls of membranes and cytoplasmic debris; (2) collections of intranuclear and intrasarcoplasmic tubular filaments (16-18 nm in external diameter and 6.5 nm in inner diameter). These chang...
