自噬在Duchenne型肌营养不良中的研究
Role of autophagy in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
摘要
Abstract
Objective To investigate the expression of microtubule-associated protein I light chain 3 (LC3) and p62 in skeletal muscle in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and the role of autophagy in necrosis of skeletal muscle cells.Methods A total of 81 patients with pathologically confirmed DMD who visited our hospital from January 2008 to May 2015 were enrolled as DMD group,and 6 patients who were suspected of myopathy and had no marked muscle lesions were enrolled as control group.Myocardial enzyme examination,electromyography,histological and enzymatic staining in skeletal muscle biopsy,and anti-dystrophin-N,-C,-R and antidysferlin immunohistochemical staining were performed for all subjects.The expression of LC3 and p62 in skeletal muscle was measured for 6 DMD patients and the control group.Results All of the 81 DMD patients were male with a mean onset age of 4.60 ± 2.35 years,and the initial symptom was mainly muscle weakness in the lower limbs.Serum creatine kinase reached a peak level at an age of 6 ~8 years and then gradually decreased with increased necrosis of myocytes.Histopathological examination showed typical muscular dystrophy in skeletal muscle in DMD patients.Semi-quantitative Western blot showed a reduction in the expression of LC3-Ⅱ and an increase in the expression of p62 in skeletal muscle in DMD patients.Conclusions Autophagy dysfunction may be involved in the pathophysiological process of skeletal muscle cell necrosis in DMD.关键词
