Glycoprotein hyposialylation gives rise to a nephrotic-like syndrome that is prevented by sialic acid administration in GNE V572L point-mutant mice. [PDF]
Mutations in the key enzyme of sialic acid biosynthesis, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetyl-mannosamine kinase, result in distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRV)/hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM) in humans.

SU(3) realization of the rigid asymmetric rotor within the IBM [PDF]
It is shown that the spectrum of the asymmetric rotor can be realized quantum mechanically in terms of a system of interacting bosons. This is achieved in the SU(3) limit of the interacting boson model by considering higher-order interactions between the

Rapamycin and chloroquine: the in vitro and in vivo effects of autophagy-modifying drugs show promising results in valosin containing protein multisystem proteinopathy. [PDF]
Mutations in the valosin containing protein (VCP) gene cause hereditary Inclusion body myopathy (hIBM) associated with Paget disease of bone (PDB), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), more recently termed multisystem proteinopathy (MSP).

Quantum Tunneling in Nuclear Fusion [PDF]
Recent theoretical advances in the study of heavy ion fusion reactions below the Coulomb barrier are reviewed. Particular emphasis is given to new ways of analyzing data, such as studying barrier distributions; new approaches to channel coupling, such as

Substantial deficiency of free sialic acid in muscles of patients with GNE myopathy and in a mouse model. [PDF]
GNE myopathy (GNEM), also known as hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM), is a late- onset, progressive myopathy caused by mutations in the GNE gene encoding the enzyme responsible for the first regulated step in the biosynthesis of sialic acid (SA).

Abstract Diffuse myofiber necrosis in the context of inflammatory myopathy is the hallmark of immune‐mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM). We have previously shown that skeletal muscle fibers of IMNM patients may display nonrimmed vacuoles and sarcoplasmic irregularities. The dysfunctional chaperone activity has been linked to the defective assembly of

Hereditary Inclusion Body Myopathy
A new familial, autosomal dominant, myopathy and variant of hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM) is described in 19 members of a large Swedish family followed in the Departments of Pediatrics, Genetics, and Pathology, Sahlgrenska University Hospital,

Association between ZASP/LDB3 Pro26Ser and Inclusion Body Myopathy [PDF]
Inclusion body myositis (IBM) is a slowly progressive disorder belonging to the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, and it represents the most common adult-onset acquired myopathy. The main clinical features include proximal or distal muscular asymmetric
