Objective Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is common in idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM), particularly in antisynthetase syndrome (ASyS), antimelanoma differentiation‐associated protein 5 (anti‐MDA5) syndrome, and scleromyositis. ILD can progress despite resolution of extrapulmonary symptoms, termed postmyopathic progressive pulmonary fibrosis ...

Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential of DJ‐1 in Skeletal Muscle Homeostasis and Disease
DJ‐1 protein functions as a redox‐sensing guardian in skeletal muscle by coordinating antioxidant defense, mitochondrial homeostasis, metabolic adaptation, and anti‐atrophy signaling. Enhancing its function holds promise as a potential therapeutic strategy for muscle atrophy, ALS, and metabolic myopathies.

Current essentials in inflammatory myopathies [PDF]
Inflammatory myopathies are a heterogeneous group of acquired systemic diseases, which include dermatomyositis (DM), polymyositis (PM), necrotising myopathy (NM) and inclusion body myositis (IBM).

An atomic view of the NFIX–DNA complex reveals recognition of the TGGCA motif and links sequence‐specific binding to the transcriptional programs governing skeletal muscle development and disease. ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle is essential for voluntary movement and exhibits a remarkable capacity for regeneration following injury.

Rituximab in the treatment of inflammatory myopathies: a review [PDF]
Several uncontrolled studies have encouraged the use of rituximab (RTX) in patients with myositis. Unfortunately, the first placebo-phase trial to assess the efficacy of RTX in refractory myositis did not show a significant difference between the two ...

Digital hamartoma resulting in a gait abnormality in a dog
Abstract A 9‐year‐old Brussels Griffon presented for assessment of a pendulous mass on the dorsal aspect of the third digit of the left hindlimb, following prior trauma to the area during a grooming visit. The primary veterinarian performed a fine needle aspirate of the mass, which revealed a mixed population of inflammatory cells. At presentation, the

Osmolytes as mediators of the muscle tissue’s responses to inflammation : emerging regulators of myositis with therapeutic potential [PDF]
Chronic inflammation of skeletal muscle tissues termed myositis is associated with inherited muscular dystrophy and with acquired inflammatory myopathy.

Abstract A 6.5‐year‐old, spayed, female dog presented in acute respiratory distress. On admission, the dog exhibited dyspnoea, bradycardia, cyanosis and gastrointestinal signs, requiring immediate intubation and mechanical ventilation. Diagnostic evaluation revealed reduced butyrylcholinesterase activity, non‐cardiogenic pulmonary oedema, elevated ...

Abstract Objectives Anti‐MDA5 dermatomyositis (anti‐MDA5 DM) is the most severe subtype of dermatomyositis, due to its pulmonary involvement. Current treatment involves corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, but variability in responses exists. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Janus kinase (JAK)– and calcineurin–inhibitor ...
