New family with HSPB8-associated autosomal dominant rimmed vacuolar myopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Objective We clinically and molecularly characterize a new family with autosomal dominant rimmed vacuolar myopathy (RVM) caused by mutations in the HSPB8 gene. Methods We performed whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing in the family.

Evaluation of quantitative muscle MRI and an intelligent phenotyping housing system as advanced phenotyping methods in a mouse model of calpain 3‐deficient muscular dystrophy

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We applied quantitative MRI of the lower limb and automated home‐cage phenotyping to a mouse model of calpainopathy to detect early disease changes. At 15 months, calpain 3‐deficient mice showed increased water T2 values correlating with immune cell infiltration in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles, while assessment of motor activity revealed only ...

Reduction of Ribonucleotide Reductase Subunit RRM2 Potentially Impairs Gut Function of Woody Breast Broilers

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Woody breast compromises meat quality leading to reduced consumer appeal. Although its causes are unclear, improvements observed with certain dietary supplements suggest that gut health may influence woody breast development. Ribonucleotide reductase subunit RRM2 is vital for mitochondrial function and gastrointestinal integrity, and alteration in its ...

Heat Stress in Quail: Impacts on Health and Productivity, and Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts physiological homeostasis in quail, inducing oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, and metabolic imbalance, which impair growth, reproduction, product quality, and welfare. Integrating nutritional, environmental, and genetic–epigenetic strategies enhances thermotolerance, sustains productivity, and supports climate‐smart quail ...

Investigating the Role of Type I Interferon Signaling on Muscle Disease Using Mouse Models

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Dysregulated type I interferon (IFN) signaling contributes to autoimmune myositis pathogenesis. We investigated the therapeutic effects of JAK inhibitors in two mouse models. We also examined how type I IFNs affect muscle vasculature. Methods Myositis was induced in major histocompatibility complex class I double transgenic ([TRE‐H‐2Kb (H ...

Improved Detection of Myositis‐Specific Autoantibodies Using Luciferase Immunoprecipitation Systems Assay: Comparison With Line Blot and Conventional Immunoprecipitation

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Myositis‐specific autoantibodies guide the diagnosis and classification of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, but current immunoassays vary in accuracy, particularly for autoantibodies associated with interstitial lung disease. To compare the performance of the luciferase immunoprecipitation systems (LIPS) assay with line blot and ...

Thyrotoxic myopathy: research status, diagnosis, and treatment

open access: yes, 2022
Thyrotoxic myopathy is hyperthyroidism accompanied by muscle lesions. It is recognized as the general term for a group of symptoms with several main manifestations of several hyperthyroidism patients in the course (e.g. muscle weakness, muscle paralysis,

Interleukin‐2 Deprived State of Regulatory T cells and Their Recovery by Low‐Dose Interleukin‐2 in Patients With Inflammatory Myopathies

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Regeneration and expansion of Treg by low‐dose interleukin‐2 (IL‐2) therapy is considered a potential treatment strategy for a wide range of autoimmune diseases. To provide a pathophysiologically‐based rationale for low‐dose IL‐2 therapy, we investigated whether reversible defects in the Treg–IL‐2 axis emerge in inflammatory myopathies ...
