Tissue-specific isoform expression of GNE gene in human tissues
Journal of Muscle Research and Cell Motility, 2022Mutations in the sialic acid biosynthesis enzyme GNE lead to a late-onset, debilitating neuromuscular disorder, GNE myopathy, characterized by progressive skeletal muscle weakness. The mechanisms responsible for skeletal muscle specificity, late-onset, and disease progression are unknown.

GNE myopathy (also called distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles or hereditary inclusion body myopathy) is an autosomal recessive myopathy characterised by skeletal muscle atrophy and weakness that preferentially involve the distal muscles. It is caused by mutations in the gene encoding a key enzyme in sialic acid biosynthesis, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2 ...

Gene analysis and clinical features of 22 GNE myopathy patients
Neurological Sciences, 2022GNE myopathy is an autosomal recessive distal myopathy caused by a biallelic mutation in UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epomerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase. In this study, we discuss the clinical features, pathological characteristics, genetic profiles, and atypical clinical manifestations of 22 Chinese GNE patients.Retrospective analysis was performed for

Hereditary thrombocytopenia with platelet sialic acid deficiency and mutations in the
AbstractBackgroundThe inherited macrothrombocytopenias are rare disorders and the underlying cause can be identified in many cases but in some, this can remain enigmatic. Platelet transfusions are often administered during hemorrhagic events.MethodsA patient with previously unexplained inherited macrothrombocytopenia with a platelet count between 3–20 ×

A novel mutation in the GNE gene and a linkage disequilibrium in Japanese pedigrees
Annals of Neurology, 2002AbstractDistal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRV) is an autosomal recessive muscular disorder characterized by weakness of the anterior compartment of the lower limbs with onset in early adulthood and sparing of the quadricep muscles. The UDP‐N‐acetylglucosamine‐2‐epimerase/N‐acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) gene was recently identified as the ...

Distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles: Novel mutations in the GNE gene
Neurology, 2002The authors present three novel missense mutations in the UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) gene, the causative gene for hereditary inclusion body myopathy, in Japanese patients with distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles.
