A recurrent GNE variant causing GNE myopathy in unrelated patients from Pakistan: a case series [PDF]

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background GNE myopathy, also referred to as bifunctional UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase myopathy, is a progressive distal myopathy marked by rimmed vacuoles and linked to a variety of disease-causing genetic variants ...

Novel missense variants associated with GNE myopathy

Neuromuscular Disorders
GNE myopathy is a rare autosomal recessive skeletal muscle disorder characterized by progressive distal muscle weakness, typically starting in the lower legs and gradually involving proximal muscle groups. It is an autosomal recessive disease, caused by biallelic variants in GNE.

Decoding GNE Myopathy: From Molecular Basis to Therapeutic Advances [PDF]

Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology
GNE myopathy is a rare, adult-onset, autosomal recessive muscle disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the GNE gene, which encodes a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of sialic acid. Deficient GNE enzyme activity results in decreased production

<i>GNE</i> genotype explains 20% of phenotypic variability in GNE myopathy. [PDF]

Neurol Genet, 2019
To test the hypothesis that common GNE mutations influence disease severity; using statistical analysis of patient cohorts from different countries.Systematic literature review identified 11 articles reporting 759 patients. GNE registry data were used as a second data set.

Progression of GNE Myopathy Based on the Patient-Reported Outcome. [PDF]

J Clin Neurol, 2019
GNE myopathy is a rare progressive myopathy caused by biallelic mutations in the GNE gene, and frequently accompanied by rimmed vacuoles in muscle pathology. The initial symptom of foot drop or hip-girdle weakness eventually spreads to all limbs over a period of decades.

GNE Myopathy in Turkish Sisters with a Novel Homozygous Mutation [PDF]

Case Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2016
Background. Hereditary inclusion body myopathy is caused by biallelic defects in the GNE gene located on chromosome 9p13. It generally affects adults older than 20 years of age. Methods and Results.

Non‐specific accumulation of glycosphingolipids in GNE myopathy [PDF]

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2013
AbstractBackgroundUDP‐GlcNAc 2‐epimerase/ManNAc 6‐kinase (GNE) is a bifunctional enzyme responsible for the first committed steps in the synthesis of sialic acid, a common terminal monosaccharide in both protein and lipid glycosylation. GNE mutations are responsible for a rare autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder, GNE myopathy (also called ...

GNE myopathy (Nonaka myopathy)

Анналы клинической и экспериментальной неврологии, 2019
GNE myopathy (Nonaka myopathy) is a rare recessive muscular dystrophy associated with the GNE gene, which is involved in sialic acid synthesis. Typical onset is in the third decade of life with distal weakness of the arms and legs, gradually progressing ...
