Focal Myositis Localised in Gastrocnemius Muscle: is it Different from Isolated Gastrocnemius Myositis? A Case Report [PDF]

Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2021
Focal myositis is a rare disease defined by an isolated inflammatory pseudotumour usually restricted to one skeletal muscle. Approximately, 250 cases of focal myositis have been described in the literature, and two recent large cohorts have been used to ...

miR-18a-3p and Its Target Protein HuR May Regulate Myogenic Differentiation in Immune-Mediated Necrotizing Myopathy

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) is characterized by manifestation of myonecrosis and regeneration of muscle fibers; however, the underlying pathogenesis remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role and mechanism of miR-18a-3p and

Different Multivariable Risk Factors for Rapid Progressive Interstitial Lung Disease in Anti-MDA5 Positive Dermatomyositis and Anti-Synthetase Syndrome

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundInterstitial lung disease (ILD) is frequently observed in anti-melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5) antibody positive dermatomyositis (DM) and anti-synthetase syndrome (ASS), where they often develop a rapidly progressive ILD ...

Adrenomedullin Expression Is Associated With the Severity and Poor Prognosis of Interstitial Lung Disease in Dermatomyositis Patients

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
ObjectiveTo evaluate adrenomedullin mRNA levels in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with dermatomyositis (DM) as well as their correlation with the severity of interstitial lung disease (ILD).MethodsA total of 41 DM patients and

The myokine GDF-15 is a potential biomarker for myositis and associates with the protein aggregates of sporadic inclusion body myositis. [PDF]

, 2020
Background: The cytokine growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) has been associated with inflammatory and mitochondrial disease, warranting exploration of its expression in myositis patients.
