congenital myopathies are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of inherited muscle disorders characterized clinically by reduced fetal movements, hypotonia, weakness and developmental delay beginning at birth or in the first year of life. however, there can be a wide variation in clinical findings including mild and asymptomatic presentation to a severe form within each subtype with...
Introduction Pompe disease (glycogenosis II, acid maltase deficiency, OMIM 232300) is a treatable autosomal recessive disorder of glycogen metabolism caused by deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase. A hallmark of Pompe disease is the presence of glycogen-loaded lysosomes. Pompe disease has frequently been misdiagnosed as other myopathies, such as polymyositis, and mistakenly...
In the present work, by titrating cytochrome c oxidase (COX) with the specific inhibitor KCN, the flux control coefficient and the metabolic reserve capacity of COX have been determined in human saponin-permeabilized muscle fibers. In the presence of the substrates glutamate and malate, a 2.3 +/- 0.2-fold excess capacity of COX was observed in ADP-stimulated human skeletal muscle fibers. This v...
Collagen VI is an integral part of the skeletal muscle extracellular matrix, providing mechanical stability and facilitating matrix-dependent cell signaling. Mutations in collagen VI result in either Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy (UCMD) or Bethlem myopathy (BM), with UCMD being clinically more severe. Recent studies demonstrating increased apoptosis and abnormal mitochondrial function i...
The mitochondrial replicative helicase Twinkle is involved in strand separation at the replication fork of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Twinkle malfunction is associated with rare diseases that include late onset mitochondrial myopathies, neuromuscular disorders and fatal infantile mtDNA depletion syndrome. We examined its 3D structure by electron microscopy (EM) and small angle X-ray scattering ...
Despite the widespread clinical use of volatile anesthetics, their mechanisms of action remain unknown [1-6]. An unbiased genetic screen in the nematode C. elegans for animals with altered volatile anesthetic sensitivity identified a mutant in a nuclear-encoded subunit of mitochondrial complex I [7,8]. This raised the question of whether mitochondrial dysfunction might be the primary mechanism ...
Nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in several cellular processes as a signaling molecule and also as a source of reactive nitrogen species (RNS). NO is produced by three isoenzymes called nitric oxide synthases (NOS), all present in skeletal muscle. While neuronal NOS (nNOS) and endothelial NOS (eNOS) are isoforms constitutively expressed, inducible NOS (iNOS) is mainly expressed during inf...
