Anti-Valosin-Containing Protein (VCP/p97) Autoantibodies in Inclusion Body Myositis and Other Inflammatory Myopathies. [PDF]

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatol, 2023
Objective The rationale for this study was based on reports that valosin‐containing protein (VCP) mutations are found in hereditary inclusion body myositis (IBM) and VCP was detected in rimmed vacuoles of sporadic IBM (sIBM) muscle biopsies. Autoantibodies to VCP have not been reported in sIBM or other inflammatory myopathies (IIMs).

Adult-onset dominant muscular dystrophy in Greek families caused by Annexin A11. [PDF]

open access: yesAnn Clin Transl Neurol, 2022
Abstract Objective Mutations in the prion‐like domain of RNA binding proteins cause dysfunctional stress responses and associated aggregate pathology in patients with neurogenic and myopathic phenotypes. Recently, mutations in ANXA11 have been reported in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and multisystem proteinopathy.

Recommendation of premarital genetic screening in the Syrian Jewish community based on mutation carrier frequencies within Syrian Jewish cohorts. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Genet Genomic Med, 2021
There is a paucity of information available regarding the carrier frequency for autosomal recessive pathogenic variants among Syrian Jews. This report provides data to support carrier screening for a group of autosomal recessive conditions among Syrian Jews based on the population frequency of 40 different pathogenic variants in a cohort of over 3800 ...

A novel missense mutation in the GNE gene in an Iranian patient with hereditary inclusion body myopathy

open access: yesJournal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2014
Hereditary inclusion body myopathy (hIBM) is an adult-onset hereditary myopathy, usually with distal onset and quadriceps sparing. This myopathy is autosomal recessive and associated to UPD-N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE)

Corrigendum: Identification of the CFTR c.1666A>G Mutation in Hereditary Inclusion Body Myopathy Using Next-Generation Sequencing Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Neurosci, 2018
Hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM) is a rare autosomal recessive adult onset muscle disease which affects one to three individuals per million worldwide. This disease is autosomal dominant and occurs in adulthood. Our previous study reported a new

The proteomic profile of hereditary inclusion body myopathy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM) is an adult onset, slowly progressive distal and proximal myopathy. Although the causing gene, GNE, encodes for a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of sialic acid, its primary function in HIBM remains unknown.

The Action of Recombinant Human Lysosomal α-Glucosidase (rhGAA) on Human Liver Glycogen: Pathway to Complete Degradation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Translational Medicine, 2021
Glycogen is present in all tissues, but it is primarily stored in the liver and in muscle. As a branched chain carbohydrate, it is broken down by phosphorylase and debrancher enzymes, which are cytoplasmic.

Unravelling inclusion body myositis using a patient‐derived fibroblast model

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 964-977, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Inclusion body myositis (IBM) is an inflammatory myopathy clinically characterized by proximal and distal muscle weakness, with inflammatory infiltrates, rimmed vacuoles and mitochondrial changes in muscle histopathology. There is scarce knowledge on IBM aetiology, and non‐established biomarkers or effective treatments are available,
