Improvement of muscle function in acid maltase deficiency by high-protein therapy

Neurology
A SlonimR Presson

Abstract

Progressive muscle weakness in acid maltase deficiency (AMD) is associated with intralysosomal accumulation of glycogen and altered myofibrillar morphology. A rapid fall in circulating branched chain amino acids after protein ingestion in a child with AMD suggested that increased net muscle protein catabolism may play a part in the pathogenesis of this condition. To reduce this muscle catabolism, the patient was treated with a high-protein diet for 12 months. This has reversed the weakness and wasting, with improvement in muscle function, exercise tolerance, and growth.

Cachexia & Brown Fat

Cachexia is a condition associated with progressive weight loss due to severe illness. In cancer patients, it is proposed to occur as a result of tumor-induced energy wasting. Several proteins have been implicated in browning and depletion of white adipose tissue. Here is the latest research on cachexia and brown fat.

Cardiac Cachexia

Cardiac cachexia is a syndrome associated with the progressive loss of muscle and fat mass. It most commonly affects patients with heart failure and can significantly decrease the quality of life and survival in these patients. Here is the latest research on cardiac cachexia.
