“…To assess the effect of PEGF on the RNA markers of NMJ disintegration, shown previously to be altered in mutant SOD1 mice and in some patients [26,37], we quantified transcripts of cholinergic receptor, nicotinic, alpha 1 (Chrna1) and Ras-related associated with diabetes (Rrad) at the symptomatic age of 15 weeks. As denervation of SKM fibers proceeds, they become hypersensitive to electrical stimulation due to stimulated expression of cholinergic receptors, including Chrna1, that are under transcriptional control of myogenic regulatory factors [38,39,40].…”

“…Like that of Chrna1 , the expression of Rrad is progressively upregulated towards the more severe denervation pathology in SOD1-G93A mice [25,26,37]. Unlike that of Chrna1 , however, Rrad upregulation seems to primarily rely on increased reactive oxygen species as its induction can be antagonized by antioxidant treatment [37]. Here, as expected, Chrna1 and Rrad were found to be extremely upregulated in SOD1-G93A mice compared to their wild-type littermates (fig.…”

“…25 By the same token, one may speculate that pathological increases in RGK protein expression may have similar atrophic effects in a broad spectrum of disorders that affect skeletal muscle. In particular, Rad expression is substantially enhanced in muscle obtained from type II diabetics, 14,16 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients, 18,26 dystrophic (mdx) mice 17 and dennervated Table 1. Throughout, error bars represent ± seM.…”

“…18 Thus, the potential role for RGK proteins as agents of pathological muscle atrophy highlights the importance of understanding the mechanisms that these small GTP-binding proteins employ to regulate L-type channel activity in skeletal muscle.…”
