The Influence of Schwann Cell Metabolism and Dysfunction on Axon Maintenance
Main Points Sensory neurons depend on Schwann cells for survival. Schwann cells provide energy for axons dunng rapid firing or after injury. Dysregulated metabolism in Schwann cells can lead to the production of neurotoxic and axon degeneration. ABSTRACT Schwann cells are the glial cells in the peripheral nervous system responsible for the production ...

ABSTRACT Background Skeletal muscle aging is associated with oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Peroxiredoxins (PRDXs), particularly PRDX3 and PRDX5, are antioxidant enzymes that are uniquely localized to mitochondria. While PRDX3 has been reported to play a role in maintaining mitochondrial function in muscle, the specific function of ...

Exploring Desmin as a Potential Modifier in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy–Associated Cardiomyopathy
ABSTRACT Aim Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a rare X‐linked genetic disorder, is affecting skeletal and cardiac muscles due to the loss of the dystrophin protein. Modifier proteins, whose expression is altered in DMD patients, may influence disease progression.

The Expanding Clinical and Genetic Spectrum of Muscle Glycogen Storage Disease 0, (GSD0B)
ABSTRACT Glycogen storage disorders are a group of genetic disorders affecting glucose homeostasis in the body. Muscular glycogen stores are essential for liberating glucose for energy supply during bursts of activity and sustained muscle work. Muscle glycogen storage disease 0 (GSD0B) is associated with biallelic variants in GYS1 causing muscular ...
