GNE myopathy (Nonaka myopathy)

open access: diamondАнналы клинической и экспериментальной неврологии, 2019
GNE myopathy (Nonaka myopathy) is a rare recessive muscular dystrophy associated with the GNE gene, which is involved in sialic acid synthesis. Typical onset is in the third decade of life with distal weakness of the arms and legs, gradually progressing ...

Clinical and genetic characteristics of Nonaka myopathy (GNE-myopathy) in russian patients

open access: diamondНервно-мышечные болезни, 2019
Clinical and genetic characteristics of 9patients with Nonaka myopathy (GNE-myopathy) from Russia are presented. As a result of exom sequencing, 11 different mutations were revealed in the GNE gene, 8 of which were described earlier, and 3 – Сys203Ser ...

Recessive GNE Mutations in Korean Nonaka Distal Myopathy Patients with or without Peripheral Neuropathy. [PDF]

open access: goldGenes (Basel)
Autosomal recessive Nonaka distal myopathy is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease characterized by progressive degeneration of the distal muscles, causing muscle weakness and decreased grip strength. It is primarily associated with mutations in the GNE gene, which encodes a key enzyme of sialic acid biosynthesis (UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2 ...

Homozygosity and linkage disequilibrium mapping of autosomal recessive distal myopathy (Nonaka distal myopathy) [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Human Genetics, 2001
Autosomal recessive distal myopathy or Nonaka distal myopathy (NM) is characterized by its unique distribution of muscular weakness and wasting. The patients present with spared quadriceps muscles even in a late stage of the disease. The hamstring and tibialis anterior muscles are affected severely in early adulthood.

Nonaka myopathy is caused by mutations in the UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase gene (GNE) [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Human Genetics, 2002
This is the first report on mutations of the UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase gene (GNE) in Nonaka myopathy or distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (OMIM 605820), an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder. Sequence and haplotype analyses of GNE in two siblings with Nonaka myopathy from a Japanese family revealed that ...

GNE myopathy with premature ovarian failure: Case report and review of the literature [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports
GNE myopathy (GNE-M) is an ultra-rare disease characterized by muscle weakness in the extremities. The main etiology is that a pathogenic variation in the GNE gene leads to a reduction in sialic acid synthesis.

Nonaka myopathy: First report of a rare mutation c.1702T>Cfrom India [PDF]

open access: diamondIP Indian Journal of Neurosciences
Nonaka myopathy is an autosomal recessive muscle disease which is slowly progressive. It typically presents between age 20 and 40 years with bilateral foot drop caused by tibialis anterior muscle weakness. Subsequently involvement of the posterior compartment of the leg, followed by involvement of hamstrings, then hip girdle muscles occur, with ...

Clinical and genotypic characteristics of patients with Nonaka distal myopathy at a specialized clinic in Salvador, BA

open access: goldArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
Case presentation: Distal myopathy of the Nonaka type is a rare genetic disorder, with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 1,000,000. It is progressive and inherited autosomally recessively, caused by mutations in the GNE gene. This gene encodes the enzyme UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase, vital for sialic acid biosynthesis ...
