Impaired muscle mitochondrial energetics is associated with uremic metabolite accumulation in chronic kidney disease

JCI Insight, 2021
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) causes progressive skeletal myopathy involving atrophy, weakness, and fatigue. Mitochondria have been thought to contribute to skeletal myopathy; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying muscle metabolism changes in CKD ...

Rhabdomyolysis: a genetic perspective [PDF]

, 2015
Rhabdomyolysis (RM) is a clinical emergency characterized by fulminant skeletal muscle damage and release of intracellular muscle components into the blood stream leading to myoglobinuria and, in severe cases, acute renal failure.

Clinical, manometric, genetic, and histologic associations in pediatric intestinal pseudo‐obstruction: A case series

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Pediatric intestinal pseudo‐obstruction (PIPO) is a severe bowel motility disorder characterized by impaired propulsion of gastrointestinal contents without mechanical obstruction. PIPO encompasses congenital and acquired disorders, including neuropathies, myopathies, and mesenchymopathies.

Mitochondrial encephalocardio-myopathy with early neonatal onset due to TMEM70 mutation [PDF]

, 2010
Objective Mitochondrial disturbances of energy-generating systems in childhood are a heterogeneous group of disorders. The aim of this multi-site survey was to characterise the natural course of a novel mitochondrial disease with ATP synthase deficiency ...

Loganin, an Iridoid Glycoside, Alleviates Paclitaxel‐Induced Skeletal Muscle Toxicity by Enhancing Mitochondrial Function, Boosting Antioxidant Defenses, and Reducing Cellular Senescence

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial dysfunction and energy imbalance caused by chemotherapy are key contributors to skeletal muscle atrophy, which severely impacts the quality of life in cancer patients. Paclitaxel, a commonly used chemotherapeutic agent, is known to promote muscle wasting and cellular senescence, largely by impairing mitochondrial function.

FOXK2 in skeletal muscle development: a new pathogenic gene for congenital myopathy with ptosis

EMBO Molecular Medicine
Congenital ptosis, a genetic disorder involving levator palpebrae muscle dysfunction, is often associated with congenital myopathy. The genetic causes of this condition remain poorly understood.

Lipofuscin: The Missing Link in the Worsening of Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Lipofuscin, also known as the age pigment, is a permanent autofluorescent intracellular deposit that accumulates with aging or oxidative stress, thereby interfering with cellular function. This study revealed significantly larger deposits of lipofuscin in the lateral pharyngeal wall muscles of patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) compared

Muscle function in the critically ill : clinical and experimental investigations [PDF]

, 2011
It is common that critically ill patients develop muscle weakness in the intensive care unit (ICU), not only delaying mobilisation and increasing the risk of co-morbidities, but also prolonging rehabilitation after hospital care.
