Role of Exercise Therapy in Prevention of Decline in Aging Muscle Function: Glucocorticoid Myopathy and Unloading

open access: yesJournal of Aging Research, 2012
Changes in skeletal muscle quantity and quality lead to disability in the aging population. Physiological changes in aging skeletal muscle are associated with a decline in mass, strength, and inability to maintain balance.

Piperine disrupts the OFF state of the resting thick filament of rat skeletal muscle, enhancing dynamic contractility in a fibre‐type‐dependent manner

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 18, Page 7739-7771, 15 September 2026.
Abstract figure legend We investigated the effects of piperine on (1) the structure of the resting thick filament and (2) dynamic contractility in fibres and intact slow (soleus) and fast (extensor digitorum longus, EDL) rat muscles, respectively. The structure of the resting thick filament was assessed pre‐ and post‐piperine incubation using small ...

Unveiling New Insights: Reinterpreting DES Mutation, p.Arg383His, Through a Study of an Iranian Family With Isolated Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, Implication for Phenotype–Genotype Correlation Analysis

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Desmin, a crucial intermediate filament in muscle cells, maintains structural integrity in cardiac muscle and provides stability to striated muscle cells. Mutations in the DES gene lead to desminopathies, causing diverse cardiac and skeletal myopathies.

Phenotype standardization for statin-induced myotoxicity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Statins are widely used lipid-lowering drugs that are effective in reducing cardiovascular disease risk. Although they are generally well tolerated, they can cause muscle toxicity, which can lead to severe rhabdomyolysis.

A Mutation in the Dimerization Domain of Filamin C Causes a Novel Type of Autosomal Dominant Myofibrillar Myopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Myofibrillar myopathy (MFM) is a human disease that is characterized by focal myofibrillar destruction and pathological cytoplasmic protein aggregations. In an extended German pedigree with a novel form of MFM characterized by clinical features of a limb-

Myosin Post‐Translational Modifications Associated With Critical Illness Myopathy

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Critical illness myopathy is a common and devastating consequence of critical care, causing dramatic loss of muscle mass and function in intensive care unit patients. Functional deficits often exceed the loss in muscle mass and myosin content.

Metformin rescues muscle function in BAG3 myofibrillar myopathy models

open access: yes, 2020
Dominant de novo mutations in the co-chaperone BAG3 cause a severe form of myofibrillar myopathy, exhibiting progressive muscle weakness, muscle structural failure, and protein aggregation. To elucidate the mechanism of disease in, and identify therapies

UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) binds to alpha-actinin 1: novel pathways in skeletal muscle? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM) is a rare neuromuscular disorder caused by mutations in GNE, the key enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway of sialic acid.
