Identification of an Alu element‐mediated deletion in the promoter region of GNE in siblings with GNE myopathy [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2017
AbstractBackgroundGNE myopathy is a rare genetic disease characterized by progressive muscle atrophy and weakness. It is caused by biallelic mutations in the GNE gene that encodes for the bifunctional enzyme, uridine diphosphate (UDP)‐N‐acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) 2‐epimerase/N‐acetylmannosamine (ManNAc) kinase.

Motor axonal neuropathy associated with GNE mutations

open access: yes, 2021
Background: Mutations in the GNE gene have been so far described as predominantly associated with distal lower-limb myopathies. Recent reports describe mutations in this gene in patients with peripheral neuropathy and motor neuron disease.

Novel compound heterozygous mutations in a GNE myopathy with congenital thrombocytopenia: A case report and literature review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2022
We reported a GNE myopathy with congenital thrombocytopenia on a young male patient. He presented with a 3‐year history of lower distal extremity weakness initially affecting his legs.

Fluvastatin Plus Dipyridamole Suppresses Canine Hemangiosarcoma Growth in Patient‐Derived Xenograft Models Through Lactate Dehydrogenase‐Associated Cholesterol/Lipid Metabolism

open access: yesVeterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tumour cells commonly exhibit aerobic glycolysis and produce lactate despite oxygen availability. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) catalyses pyruvate‐lactate interconversion and regulates intracellular lactate levels. Endothelial cells also depend on glycolysis for ATP production, which prompted us to investigate LDH in canine hemangiosarcoma (HSA),

Aberrant O‐GlcNAcylation disrupts GNE enzyme activity in GNE myopathy [PDF]

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, 2016
UDP‐N‐acetylglucosamine 2‐epimerase/N‐acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) is the key enzyme for the biosynthesis of sialic acids. Sialic acids are terminal monosaccharides of glycoconjugates and gangliosides, which have an essential influence on various cell interactions.

Role of IGF-1R in ameliorating apoptosis of GNE deficient cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Sialic acids (SAs) are nine carbon acidic amino sugars, found at the outermost termini of glycoconjugates performing various physiological and pathological functions.

Glycation Interferes with the Activity of the Bi-Functional UDP-N-Acetylglucosamine 2-Epimerase/N-Acetyl-mannosamine Kinase (GNE)

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Mutations in the gene coding for the bi-functional UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE), the key enzyme of the sialic acid biosynthesis, are responsible for autosomal-recessive GNE myopathy (GNEM).

Hippo Pathway–YAP/TAZ Signaling: Molecular Mechanisms, Biological Function, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
The Hippo–YAP/TAZ–TEAD pathway integrates mechanical and biochemical cues to govern organ growth, regeneration, cancer, and fibrosis. This review dissects pathway physiology, TEAD structural pharmacology and ligandable pockets, and therapeutic strategies spanning palmitoylation‐pocket inhibitors, PROTAC degraders, and gene/RNA therapies, highlighting ...

GNE Myopathy with Congenital Thrombocytopenia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
GNE myopathy is a distal dominant myopathy with characteristic sparing of quadriceps, which is known to be caused by mutation of the GNE gene. Recently, there were some reports of thrombocytopenia that concurred with GNE myopathy. We also present a case

GNE myopathy: from clinics and genetics to pathology and research strategies

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2018
GNE myopathy is an ultra-rare autosomal recessive disease, which starts as a distal muscle weakness and ultimately leads to a wheelchair bound state.
