Catecholamine-Induced Muscle Weakness

Archives of Neurology, 1977
Infusions of epinephrine or levarterenol bitartrate into a rabbit nerve-muscle preparation decreased the force of the evoked twitch of anterior tibial and gastrocnemius-soleus muscles. The adverse effect of the catecholamines was not directly on skeletal muscle.

Serotonin-Induced Muscle Weakness

Archives of Neurology, 1974
Infusions of serotonin into a rat nervemuscle preparation decreased the force of the evoked twitch of anterior tibial and soleus muscles. Antiserotonin drugs (cyproheptadine hydrochloride, methysergide, chlorpromazine hydrochloride) prevented the adverse effect of serotonin if they were given prior to the serotonin infusion.

Peripheral muscle weakness in RASopathies

Muscle & Nerve, 2012
AbstractIntroduction: RASopathies are a group of genetic conditions due to alterations of the Ras/MAPK pathway. Neurocutaneous findings are hallmark features of the RASopathies, but musculoskeletal abnormalities are also frequent. The objective was to evaluate handgrip strength in the RASopathies.

Proximal muscle weakness in children

Postgraduate Medicine, 1981
In as many as half of the children referred to a muscle disease clinic, the original diagnosis is ultimately changed. Five cases histories are reviewed here in which Duchenne muscular dystrophy had been mistakenly diagnosed 3 to 12 years previously and the correct diagnosis was made only after repeat muscle biopsy or biopsy review.

Powerful signals for weak muscles

Ageing Research Reviews, 2009
The aim of the present review is to summarise, evaluate and critique the different mechanisms involved in anabolic growth of skeletal muscle and the catabolic processes involved in cancer cachexia and sarcopenia of ageing. This is highly relevant, since they represent targets for future promising clinical investigations.

Adolescent Onset of Muscle Weakness

Medical Clinics of North America
Pediatric adolescent muscle weakness can be from a variety of causes. Methodical diagnostic evaluation can lead to the category of diseases whereby phenotypic overlap requires either specialized care or broad testing patterns. However, having the ultimate diagnosis is important for prognostication.
