Clinical profiles associated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease in antisynthetase syndrome: A multicentric cohort study (TYPASS study)

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To assess factors associated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (ILD) (RP‐ILD) at time of ILD diagnosis in a multicentric retrospective cohort study of antisynthetase syndrome (ASyS). We used a complementary unsupervised approach, hierarchical clustering, to delineate distinct phenotypes among ASyS patients with ILD.

A therapeutic leap: how myosin inhibitors moved from cardiac interventions to skeletal muscle myopathy solutions

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation
The myosin inhibitor mavacamten has transformed the management of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) by targeting myosin ATPase activity to mitigate cardiac hypercontractility.

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Molecular diagnosis of hereditary inclusion body myopathy by linkage analysis and identification of a novel splice site mutation in GNE

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2011
Background Many myopathies share clinical features in common, and diagnosis often requires genetic testing. We ascertained a family in which five siblings presented with distal muscle weakness of unknown etiology.

The mitochondrial‐targeted antioxidant SkQ1 prevents skeletal muscle mitochondrial‐apoptotic but not necroptotic signalling during ovarian cancer

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend An evaluation of the degree to which mitochondrial hydrogen peroxide emission (mH2O2)‐mediated apoptotic and necroptotic signalling contributes to skeletal muscle atrophy in an orthotopic epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) model. To determine whether attenuating mH2O2 could prevent regulated cell death signalling and mitigate muscle

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2019
Background Collagen VI-related myopathies are a spectrum of muscular diseases with features of muscle weakness and atrophy, multiple contractures of joints, distal hyperextensibility, severe respiratory dysfunction and cutaneous alterations, attributable

Kidney disease impairs tendon function in rats

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study demonstrates for the first time that tendon strength is reduced in a rodent model of chronic kidney disease (8 weeks of 0.25% adenine feeding) and confirms concurrent dysfunction in muscle and bone. These findings provide novel characterization of multiple tissues, paving the way for future investigations into the ...
