Skeletal muscle pathology in Huntington's disease
Huntington's disease (HD) is a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expansion of a polyglutamine stretch within the huntingtin protein (HTT). The neurological symptoms, that involve motor, cognitive and psychiatric disturbances, are caused by neurodegeneration that is particularly widespread in the basal ganglia and cereberal cortex. HTT is ubiquitously expressed and in recent ye...
متن کاملimmunohistochemistry (ihc) in muscle pathology
muscle biopsy interpretation has been revolutionized by ihc. immunohistochemistry now has an essential role in the evaluation of the muscle biopsies and in examining proteins localizations. advances in the characterization of sarcolemmal proteins and recognition that defects in the genes encoding such proteins may lie at the heart of the multiple differing forms of muscular dystrophy have been ...
متن کاملVascular Smooth Muscle as a Therapeutic Target in Disease Pathology
Our circulatory system is composed of numerous elements that are responsible for transport of blood and delivery of essential nutrients and gases to vital downstream tissues. Among these components that make up our circulation is vascular smooth muscle (VSM), the primary muscular and contractile element of blood vessels and regulator of many blood vessel functions. This is of particular importa...
متن کاملMuscle pathology in juvenile dermatomyositis.
OBJECTIVE To study muscle biopsies, using histochemistry, on ten children with infantile dermatomyositis. DESIGN Series of ten patients (of whom eight patients had received treatment and two had not) were submitted to muscle biopsy in order to diagnose possible inflammatory myopathy or to detect recurrences. PLACE OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE STUDY: Public Health Service of São Paulo State. PARTIC...
متن کاملPathology of Muscle
NORMAL SKELETAL MUSCLE: C muscle cell = myocyte = muscle fiber = myofiber. C embryologically skeletal muscles are derived from paraxial mesoderm: P muscles of the back, body wall & limbs are derived from the myotome (ie part of mesodermal somites) & muscles of the head are from cranial paraxial mesoderm that migrates into the branchial arches. P the mesoderm differentiates into myoblasts ÿ alig...
