Abstract:
:In our study, mitochondria were isolated from skeletal muscle in 2-, 3-, 4-, 6-, 8-, and 12-week-old normal (C57BL6j dy/+), and 4-, 8-, and 12-week-old dystrophic (C57BL6j dy/dy) mice and in normal subjects and patients with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy. A deficit was observed in a calcium-specific mitochondrial protein in the very young control mouse, compared with the adult mouse. In the adult dystrophic mouse this deficit was found in clinically affected hindleg muscles as well as in apparently normal front leg muscles; it was also found in quadriceps muscles from patients with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy. It is not observed in normal adult mice or in normal subjects. The body of our results suggests that in the forms of muscular dystrophy studied there would be a maturation defect in this calcium-binding mitochondrial protein ("calmitine"), a defect which might be generalized in the entire skeletal muscle system and conceivably could be the cause of muscle degeneration in certain myopathies such as Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy.
