  • A novel dynamin-2 gene mutation associated with a late-onset centronuclear myopathy with necklace fibres
  • 2015
  • Ingår i: Neuromuscular Disorders. - : Elsevier BV. - 0960-8966 .- 1873-2364. ; 25:4, s. 345-348

    • Nuclear centralisation and internalisation, sarcoplasmic radiating strands and type 1 muscle fibre predominance and hypotrophy characterise dynamin-2 (DNM2) associated centronuclear myopathy, whereas necklace fibres are typically seen in late onset myotubularin-1 (MTM1)-related myopathy. We report a woman with unilateral symptoms probably related to brachial plexus neuritis. Electromyography revealed localised neuropathic and generalised myopathic abnormalities. The typical features of DNM2 centronuclear myopathy with additional necklace fibres were found in the muscle biopsy. Sequencing of the DNM2 and MTM1 genes revealed a novel heterozygous missense mutation in exon 18 of the DNM2, leading to replacement of highly conserved proline at position 647 by arginine. The muscle symptoms have not progressed during the 3-year follow-up. However, the patient has developed bilateral subtle lens opacities. Our findings support the concept that necklace fibres may occasionally be found in DNM2-related myopathy, possibly indicating a common pathogenic mechanism in DNM2 and MTM1 associated centronuclear myopathy.

  • Functional analysis of a novel POL gamma A mutation associated with a severe perinatal mitochondrial encephalomyopathy
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Neuromuscular Disorders. - : Elsevier BV. - 0960-8966. ; 31:4, s. 348-358

    • Mutations in the mitochondrial DNA polymerase gamma catalytic subunit (POL. A) compromise the stability of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) by leading to mutations, deletions and depletions in mtDNA. Patients with mutations in POL gamma A often differ remarkably in disease severity and age of onset. In this work we have studied the functional consequence of POL gamma A mutations in a patient with an uncommon and a very severe disease phenotype characterized by prenatal onset with intrauterine growth restriction, lactic acidosis from birth, encephalopathy, hepatopathy, myopathy, and early death. Muscle biopsy identified scattered COX-deficient muscle fibers, respiratory chain dysfunction and mtDNA depletion. We identified a novel POL.A mutation (p.His1134Tyr) in trans with the previously identified p.Thr251Ile/Pro587Leu double mutant. Biochemical characterization of the purified recombinant POL gamma A variants showed that the p.His1134Tyr mutation caused severe polymerase dysfunction. The p.Thr251Ile/Pro587Leu mutation caused reduced polymerase function in conditions of low dNTP concentration that mimic postmitotic tissues. Critically, when p.His1134Tyr and p.Thr251Ile/Pro587Leu were combined under these conditions, mtDNA replication was severely diminished and featured prominent stalling. Our data provide a molecular explanation for the patients mtDNA depletion and clinical features, particularly in tissues such as brain and muscle that have low dNTP concentration.

  • Mitochondrial myopathy with exercise intolerance and retinal dystrophy in a sporadic patient with a G583A mutation in the mt tRNA(phe) gene
  • 2006
  • Ingår i: Neuromuscular disorders : NMD. - : Elsevier BV. - 0960-8966 .- 1873-2364. ; 16:8, s. 504-6
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We describe a second patient with the 583G>A mutation in the tRNA(phe) gene of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). This 17-year-old girl had a mitochondrial myopathy with exercise intolerance and an asymptomatic retinopathy. Muscle investigations showed occasional ragged red fibers, 30% cytochrome c oxidase (COX)-negative fibers, and reduced activities of complex I+IV in the respiratory chain. The mutation was heteroplasmic (79%) in muscle but undetectable in other tissues. Analysis of single muscle fibers revealed a significantly higher level of mutated mtDNA in COX-negative fibers. Our study indicates that the 583G>A mutation is pathogenic and expands the clinical spectrum of this mutation.

  • Hereditary myopathy with early respiratory failure is associated with misfolding of the titin fibronectin III 119 subdomain
  • 2014
  • Ingår i: Neuromuscular Disorders. - : Elsevier BV. - 0960-8966. ; 24:5, s. 373-379
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Hereditary myopathy with early respiratory failure is a rare disease with muscle weakness and respiratory failure as early symptoms. Muscle pathology is characterized by the presence of multiple cytoplasmic bodies and other protein aggregates in muscle fibers. The disease is associated with mutations in the titin gene (TTN). All patients harbor mutations located in exon 343 in the TTN gene that codes for the fibronectin III domain 119 (FN3 119) in the 10th motif of the 11-element motif A-band super-repeat. We investigated how such disease-causing mutations affect the biochemical behavior of this titin domain. All five disease-causing amino acid changes analyzed by us (p.P30068R, p.C30071R, p.W30088R, p.W30088C and p.P30091L) resulted in impaired FN3 119 domain solubility. In contrast, amino acid changes associated with common SNPs (p.V30076I, p.R30107C and p.S30125F) did not have this effect. In silica analyses further support the notion that disease-causing mutations impair proper folding of the FN3 119 domain. The results suggest that hereditary myopathy with early respiratory failure is caused by defective protein folding. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  • Myopathy in a woman and her daughter associated with a novel splice site MTM1 mutation.
  • 2012
  • Ingår i: Neuromuscular disorders : NMD. - : Elsevier BV. - 1873-2364 .- 0960-8966. ; 22:3, s. 244-51
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We have investigated a woman and her daughter with an early onset, slowly progressive myopathy. Muscle biopsy showed in both cases severe atrophy with marked fatty replacement. Frequent fibers with internalized nuclei were present but no typical features of centronuclear myopathy. There were also many fibers with deep invaginations of the plasma membrane. The presence of necklace fibers provided clue to correct genetic diagnosis. Both patients had a novel heterozygous splice site mutation in the myotubularin gene, MTM1 (c.867+1G>T). Analysis of MTM1 cDNA revealed that the mutation resulted in aberrant splicing with variable exon skipping. The expression of normal transcripts was markedly reduced and there was reduced expression of myotubularin protein. Although the expression of the allele without the mutation was reduced we did not obtain evidence of skewed X-chromosome inactivation. Other factors than skewed X-inactivation may cause allele inactivation and manifestation of severe myopathy in heterozygous carriers of pathogenic MTM1 mutations.

  • Different tissue distribution of a mitochondrial DNA duplication and the corresponding deletion in a patient with a mild mitochondrial encephalomyopathy: deletion in muscle, duplication in blood.
  • 2004
  • Ingår i: Neuromuscular disorders : NMD. - : Elsevier BV. - 0960-8966. ; 14:3, s. 195-201
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Large-scale heteroplasmic mtDNA rearrangements were identified in a 57-year-old woman with chronic depressive disorder, hearing-loss, diabetes mellitus and a slowly progressive encephalomyopathy. A high percentage of a 24.2 kb duplicated molecule was found in lymphocytes whereas the corresponding deletion dimer dominated in muscle. PCR and Southern blot analyses were used to identify a 7658 bp duplication/deletion fragment. The duplicated mtDNA disrupted the cytochrome oxidase subunit I and cytochrome b genes at a position where there were no direct repeats. Duplicated mtDNA was not observed in the mother and brother of the patient. Histochemical analysis of skeletal muscle demonstrated pathological accumulation of mitochondria in cytochrome c oxidase negative fibers. In situ hybridization demonstrated only deleted mtDNA in cytochrome c oxidase negative fibres. We conclude that occurrence of deleted mtDNA correlates with phenotypic expression and that the duplicated mtDNA might serve as a generator of deletions, but is not directly pathogenic.

  • A novel homozygous RRM2B missense mutation in association with severe mtDNA depletion.
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Neuromuscular disorders : NMD. - : Elsevier BV. - 0960-8966. ; 19:2, s. 147-50

    • This report describes two brothers, both deceased in infancy, with severe depletion of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in muscle tissue. Both had feeding difficulties, failure to thrive, severe muscular hypotonia and lactic acidosis. One of the boys developed a renal proximal tubulopathy. A novel homozygous c.686 G-->T missense mutation in the RRM2B gene, encoding the p53-inducible ribonucleotide reductase subunit (p53R2), was identified. This is the third report on mutations in RRM2B associated with severe mtDNA depletion, which further highlights the importance of de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides (dNTPs) for mtDNA maintenance.

  • Transient restoration of succinate dehydrogenase activity after rhabdomyolysis in iron-sulphur cluster deficiency myopathy
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: Neuromuscular Disorders. - : Elsevier BV. - 0960-8966 .- 1873-2364. ; 21:2, s. 115-120
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Myopathy with exercise intolerance and deficiency of iron sulphur cluster proteins is caused by an intronic IVS5+382 G > C mutation in ISCU, the gene encoding the iron sulphur cluster assembly protein (IscU). The mutation causes alternative splicing resulting in a truncated protein and severely reduced levels of IscU protein in muscle tissue. Disease manifestations include muscle fatigability, dyspnoea, cardiac palpitations and episodic myoglobinuria. Muscle tissue of these patients demonstrates marked histochemical succinate dehydrogenase deficiency and accumulation of iron in muscle fibres, which are morphological hallmarks of the disease. A biopsy specimen from a patient, two months after a severe attack of rhabdomyolysis, revealed regenerating muscle with normal succinate dehydrogenase activity and only minor iron accumulation, whereas another biopsy obtained nine years after the episode showed the typical hallmarks of the disease. The apparent explanation for the normal succinate dehydrogenase activity during regeneration was a markedly increased level of IscU protein in regenerating muscle tissue and an increase in normally spliced ISCU transcripts in the patient. The results have implications for diagnosis of the disease based on muscle biopsy findings and support the concept that an increase of normally spliced ISCU by RNA modulating therapy may be a therapeutic possibility for these patients.
