Whole‐Body Pattern of Muscle Degeneration and Progression in Sarcoglycanopathies

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 1129-1140, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize whole‐body intramuscular fat distribution pattern in patients with sarcoglycanopathies and explore correlations with disease severity, duration and age at onset. Methods Retrospective, cross‐sectional, multicentric study enrolling patients with variants in one of the four sarcoglycan genes who underwent whole‐body ...

Calpain is activated in experimental uremia: Is calpain a mediator of uremia-induced myocardial injury?

open access: yes, 2003
Calpain is activated in experimental uremia: Is calpain a mediator of uremia-induced myocardial injury?BackgroundThe cysteine proteases calpain and caspase-3 are known mediators of cell death. The aim of this study was to assess their contribution to the

Measuring Calpain 3 Proteolytic Activity Using an in vitro Substrate

open access: yesNeuromuscular disorders, 2006
Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A) is an autosomal recessive muscular disorder caused by mutations in the gene coding for calpain 3, a calcium-dependent protease. In order to improve LGMD2A diagnosis, we have developed an in vitro assay that can detect the proteolytic activity of calpain 3 in a muscle sample. This assay is based on the use

5‐Hydroxytryptamine Distribution Alteration in Both Neuron and Synapse of Tg(SOD1*G93A)1gur Mice: A Potential Intervention Candidate Strategy for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study reveals that 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT) synapses in the spinal cord and 5‐HT neurons in the brainstem of the SOD1‐G93A amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) mouse model are significantly altered, showing a decrease in pre‐symptomatic stages but a marked increase as the disease progresses.

Vacuolization as a Novel Approach to Cancer Therapy

open access: yesJournal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
This review discusses the novel strategy of inducing vacuole formation in cancer cells using small molecules, that induce nonapoptotic cell death mechanisms, such as paraptosis, oncosis, autophagy, and methuosis, and its potential in overcoming resistance to apoptosis‐based cancer therapies.

Novel role of calpain-3 in the triad-associated protein complex regulating calcium release in skeletal muscle

open access: yes, 2008
g.oxfordjournals.org/ D ow nloaded from Calpain 3 is a non-lysosomal cysteine protease that is necessary for normal muscle function, as mutations in calpain 3 result in an autosomal recessive form of limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A).
