Pathogenesis of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies [PDF]
Current Rheumatology Reports, 2006 The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, myositis, are characterized by a chronic course with decreased muscle endurance and by infiltrates of T lymphocytes and macrophages in muscle tissue. Treatment with immunosuppressives rarely leads to recovery of muscle function, despite abolishment of inflammatory cell infiltrates in muscle tissue.
