Distribution of androgen receptors in bulbospinal muscular atrophy

この論文をさがす

説明

Immunohistochemical staining with anti-androgen receptor (AR) antibody was performed in skeletal muscle specimens obtained from 3 cases with bulbo-spinal muscular atrophy (BSMA) and 12 cases with other neuromuscular disease. Anti-AR antibody staining was found exclusively in the muscle nuclei of Type 2A fibers in all of the 3 cases. But there was no positive staining in the muscle nuclei of other disease. As above mentioned, very specific immuno-staining of AR in skeletal muscle would be of benefit to diagnosis of BSMA in addition to identification of a mutation of AR gene.
