    Extractions: There are many different types of myopathies, some of which are inherited, some inflammatory, and some caused by endocrine problems. Myopathies are rare and not usually fatal. Typically, effects are mild, largely causing muscle weakness and movement problems, and many are transitory. Only rarely will patients become dependent on a wheelchair. However, muscular dystrophy (which is technically a form of myopathy) is far more severe. Some types of this disease are fatal in early adulthood. Among their many functions, genes are responsible for overseeing the production of proteins important in maintaining healthy cells. Muscle cells produce thousands of proteins. With each of the inherited myopathies, a genetic defect is linked to a lack of, or problem with, one of the proteins needed for normal muscle cell function. There are several different kinds of myopathy caused by defective genes: Central core disease Centronuclear (myotubular) myopathy Myotonia congenita Nemaline myopathy Paramyotonia congenita Periodic paralysis (hypokalemic and hyperkalemic forms)

    Extractions: Subscribe now >> The mitochondrial myopathies are a group of neuromuscular diseases of the mitochondria. Mitochondria, which are small structures found in every cell in the body and are the "power plant" or energy-producing part of the cell, appear to cause the most damage in cells that require a great deal of energy such as nerves in the brain and muscles. Some of the more common mitochondrial myopathies include Kearns-Sayre syndrome, oculocraniosomatic neuromuscular disease with ragged-red fibers, myoclonus epilepsy with ragged-red fibers (MERRF), and mitochondrial encephalomyopathy lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS). The symptoms of mitochondrial myopathies include muscle weakness or exercise intolerance, heart failure or rhythm disturbances, dementia, movement disorders, stroke-like episodes, deafness, blindness, vomiting, and seizures. These disorders range in severity from progressive weakness to death. The age of onset ranges from birth to adult life, with the majority of cases occurring before the age of 20. Exercise intolerance or muscle weakness usually develops by age 10. During activity, active muscles may become easily fatigued or weak. Nausea, headache and breathlessness are also sometimes associated.

    Metabolic myopathies In both glycogen and lipid storage myopathies, quantitative measurement of the deficient enzyme will confirm the diagnosis.  
    http://www.bcm.edu/neurology/research/nmus/nmus3a5.html
    
    Extractions: The muscle biopsy also helps to confirm some abnormalities of the lipid metabolism. In those cases the muscle biopsy is essentially normal except for the presence of abnormal lipid deposits in the majority of the fibers with oil-red-O stain. In both glycogen and lipid storage myopathies, quantitative measurement of the deficient enzyme will confirm the diagnosis. There is no specific treatment for many of the metabolic muscle disorders. Once a particular defect is identified, attempts are made to instruct the patient to avoid precipitating factors. In some disorders, such as carnitine deficiency, a lipid myopathy, attempts have been made with variable success to treat the condition with oral carnitine.

    Extractions: Myopathy is a general term that implies disease of the muscle. Diseases of the muscle are usually characterized by weakness. The weakness tends to involve the proximal muscles of the limbs, that is the muscles closer to the body, and might also involve the neck muscles. Symptoms of myopathies are related to difficulties arising from the weakness of the proximal muscles. Patients complain about difficulties climbing up stairs, getting up from a chair, rising from a squatting position, combing hair, and reaching for high objects. Other symptoms that can be seen in certain myopathies include muscle tenderness, and in late stage chronic cases, muscle atrophy.

Myotonia congenita (Thomsen's disease) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder that affects males and females. Symptoms usually start in infancy. The hands, legs, and eyelids become very stiff because of an inability to relax the muscles. Muscle weakness, however, is usually minimal. The diagnosis is made from the child's characteristic appearance, inability to relax the grip of the hand rapidly after closing the hand, and prolonged contraction after the doctor taps a muscle.

    Extractions: It has been recognised for many years that some patients with muscle disease have particular problems with the muscles around the eyes, although other parts of the body can also be involved. Whilst research is continuing, it appears that most of these patients have either oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) or mitochondrial chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO). The main features of these disorders are discussed below. Some of the symptoms and signs are common to both disorders. You can download this factsheet as a Word document: Ocular Myopathies factsheet Muscular dystrophy is a term used to describe a number of conditions in which there is progressive muscle weakness, caused by the patient having a faulty gene. In OPMD the weakness mainly affects the ocular (eye) and pharyngeal (throat) muscles.

    Extractions: Frequently Asked Questions Overview The "myopathies" is the name given to a group of neuromuscular disorders that affect skeletal muscle , causing generalized muscular weakness among other symptoms. Literally, the word myopathy means "disease of the muscle" (myo=muscle; Gr. pathos=disease). Other types of myopathies are the inflammatory myopathies, the channelopathies, the metabolic myopathies, the mitochondrial myopathies, the dystrophic myopathies, and the non-dystrophic myopathies. Although all these myopathies affect skeletal muscle, the mechanisms that cause disease are different in each type. In the Beggs laboratory, we focus on a group of
