Autophagy in Skeletal Muscle Homeostasis and in Muscular Dystrophies
Skeletal muscles are the agent of motion and one of the most important tissues responsible for the control of metabolism. The maintenance of muscle homeostasis is finely regulated by the balance between catabolic and anabolic process. Macroautophagy (or autophagy) is a catabolic process that provides the degradation of protein aggregation and damaged organelles through the fusion between autoph...
متن کاملThe muscular dystrophies.
The muscular dystrophies are inherited myogenic disorders characterised by progressive muscle wasting and weakness of variable distribution and severity. They can be subdivided into several groups, including congenital forms, in accordance with the distribution of predominant muscle weakness: Duchenne and Becker; Emery-Dreifuss; distal; facioscapulohumeral; oculopharyngeal; and limb-girdle whic...
متن کاملThe muscular dystrophies.
In 1879 William Gowers, the eminent British neurologist, painted a remarkably lucid word picture of Duchenne muscular dystrophy in his series of lectures on pseudohypertrophic muscular paralysis, published in the Lancet.' This disease, he said, is one of the most interesting, and at the same time most sad, of all those with which we have to deal; interesting because of its peculiar features and...
متن کاملOcular findings in muscular dystrophies
Muscular dystrophies are a heterogeneous class of inherited disorders presenting with different clinical, genetic, and biochemical features. Muscular dystrophies include Duchennemuscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) myotonic dystrophy (DM), oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD), facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD), dist...
متن کاملMuscle MRI in muscular dystrophies.
Muscle MRI has become a very useful tool in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with muscle dystrophies. Muscle MRI provides us about many aspects of the structure and function of skeletal muscles, such as the presence of oedema or fatty infiltration. In the last years many reports have described the particular muscles that are involved in these muscle disease. This knowledge can facilitate...
