Острый рабдомиолиз

Rhabdomyolysis results from the rapid breakdown of skeletal muscle fibers, which leads to leakage of potentially toxic cellular contents into the systemic circulation. Acquired causes by direct injury to the sarcolemma are the most frequent. The inherited causes are: metabolic with failure of energy production, including mitochondrial fatty acid ß-oxidation defects, LPIN1 mutations, inborn errors of glycogenolysis and glycolysis, more rarely mitochondrial respiratory chain deficiency, purine defects and peroxysomalα-Methylacyl-CoA-racemase defect (AMACR); dystrophinopathies and myopathies; calcic causes with RYR1 mutations; inflammatory with myositis. Irrespective of the cause of rhabdomyolysis, the pathophysiologic events follow a common pathway, the ATP depletion leading to an increased intracellular calcium concentration and necrosis. Most episodes of rhabdomyolysis are triggered by an environmental stress, mostly fever. This condition is associated with two events, elevated temperature and high circulating levels of pro-inflammatory mediators such as cytokines and chemokines. We describe here an example of rhabdomyolysis related to high temperature, aldolase deficiency, in 3 siblings with episodic rhabdomyolysis without hemolytic anemia. Myoglobinuria was always triggered by febrile illnesses. We show that the underlying mechanism involves an exacerbation of aldolase A deficiency at high temperatures that affected myoblasts but not erythrocytes. Thermolability was enhanced in patient myoblasts compared to control. The aldolase A deficiency was rescued by arginine supplementation in vitro. Lipid droplets accumulated in patient myoblasts relative to control and this was increased by cytokines. Lipotoxicity may participate to myolysis. Our results expand the clinical spectrum of aldolase A deficiency to isolated temperature-dependent rhabdomyolysis, and suggest that thermolability may be tissue specific. We also propose a treatment for this severe disease. Some other diseases involved in rhabdomyolysis may implicate pro-inflammatory cytokines and may be proinflammatory diseases.Острый рабдомиолиз – драматичное внезапное разрушение мышечных волокон скелетных мышц. К генетическим этиологическим факторам относят: метаболические расстройства, сопровождаемые дефицитом окисления жирных кислот, дефицитом липина-1, аномалии гликогенолиза и гликолиза, реже – дефицит митохондриальной дыхательной цепи, дефицит пурина и пероксизмальный дефицит α-метил-ацил-КоА-рацемазы (α-methyl-acyl-CoA-acemase, AMACR); структурные патологии в рамках дистрофинопатий и миопатий; аномалии кальциевого обмена с мутациями в гене RYR1; воспалительные реакции, ассоциированные с миозитом. Независимо от причины, дефицит аденозинтрифосфата в миоците приводит к повышению содержания внутриклеточного кальция и некрозу мышечных волокон. Провоцирующим фактором рабдомиолиза могут быть экзогенные факторы, среди которых травматизация мышц является самой частой причиной рабдомиолиза метаболического генеза. В случае лихорадки следует учитывать 2 фактора: повышение температуры тела и существование провоспалительных цитокинов. В статье описан случай рабдомиолиза у 3 детей от близкородственного брака, спровоцированный гипертермией и вызванный дефицитом альдолазы А, не сопровождаемой гемолитической анемией. В рассматриваемом случае миоглобинурия была всегда вызвана фебрильной температурой. В свою очередь, фермент альдолаза-А обладает тканеспецифичной термолабильностью: при тестируемых температурах он обнаружен в миобластах, но не в эритроцитах, что объясняет специфическую симптоматику у описываемых пациентов. Существуют предположения, что в клеточной липотоксичности участвуют так называемые жировые капли. В ходе исследований in vitro дефицит альдолазы А был возмещен добавлением аргинина. Другие типы рабдомиолиза метаболического генеза, вероятно, являются провоспалительными заболеваниями.перевод: Мария Олеговна Ковальчу

A Thermolabile Aldolase A Mutant Causes Fever-Induced Recurrent Rhabdomyolysis without Hemolytic Anemia

International audienceAldolase A deficiency has been reported as a rare cause of hemolytic anemia occasionally associated with myopathy. We identified a deleterious homozygous mutation in the ALDOA gene in 3 siblings with episodic rhabdomyolysis without hemolytic anemia. Myoglobinuria was always triggered by febrile illnesses. We show that the underlying mechanism involves an exacerbation of aldolase A deficiency at high temperatures that affected myoblasts but not erythrocytes. The aldolase A deficiency was rescued by arginine supplementation in vitro but not by glycerol, betaine or benzylhydantoin, three other known chaperones, suggesting that arginine-mediated rescue operated by a mechanism other than protein chaperoning. Lipid droplets accumulated in patient myoblasts relative to control and this was increased by cytokines, and reduced by dexamethasone. Our results expand the clinical spectrum of aldolase A deficiency to isolated temperature-dependent rhabdomyolysis, and suggest that thermolability may be tissue specific. We also propose a treatment for this severe disease

Chains A, B, C and D of isoenzyme C are shown in orange, light blue, light green and pink, respectively. Monomeric isoenzyme A is shown in grey and is superimposed on chain D of the tetrameric isoenzyme C. Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate co-crystallized with isoenzyme A is shown in yellow.
