Skeletal muscle | |
---|---|
Protein aggregate myopathy | |
Submembraneous accumulations localized inside myofibres containing MyHC and parts of sarcomeres | |
Protein accumulations are not fibre type restricted | |
Fibre type shift in soleus and EDL (increased slow‐, decreased fast‐twitch fibres) | |
Centralized nuclei | |
Decreased maximal force development of soleus and EDL | |
Increased Myh3 and Myh7 expression | |
Mass spectrometry: | |
Increase in degradation associated proteins | |
Increase in MAPKAPK3 | |
Decrease in mitochondrial proteins |
Heart | |
---|---|
Increased LVESD, decreased wall thickness | |
Decreased LVEF and cardiac output | |
Reduced left ventricular systolic and developing pressure | |
Decreased cardiac contraction and relaxation velocity | |
Reduced cardiomyocyte contractility and relaxation velocity | |
Reduced calcium influx and export velocities | |
Increased Myh7 expression |
EDL, extensor digitorum longus; LVESD, left ventricular ejection fraction; LVEF, left ventricular end‐systolic dimension; MAPKAPK, mitogen‐activated protein kinase‐activated protein kinase; Myh, myosin heavy chain.
