“…Although symptoms potentially due to malfunctions of smooth muscle have been reported in patients with muscular dystrophy (15)(16)(17)(18), not much is known about the composition of the DGC in smooth muscle. In the present study, we have investigated the expression of the DGC in smooth muscle cells with particular emphasis on the composition of the sarcoglycan complex.…”

“…Perturbation of smooth muscle function might contribute to the functional anomalies of the digestive tract reported for patients with muscular dystrophies (15)(16)(17)(18). Furthermore, it may be possible to distinguish sarcoglycan-deficient LGMD patients by analyzing sarcoglycan expression in skin biopsies containing arector pili muscles and vascular smooth muscle.…”

“…Embora apresentem semelhanças nas características gerais da distrofia muscular, esses animais possuem diferentes capacidades de regeneração (SEIXAS et al, 1997 ROBIN;FALEWSKI, 1963;BENSEN;TARR, 1996), má absorção intestinal ONG;DRAKE, 1964), disfagia, vômito, constipação crônica (JAFFE et al, 1990 e pseudo-obstrução intestinal (LEON et al,1986). As anormalidades verificadas no TGI de pacientes com DMD são frequentemente apontadas como consequência de alterações no músculo liso; entretanto, o envolvimento de estruturas neurais como os constituintes do plexo mioentérico não pode ser excluído (LEON et al, 1986;BACCARI;ROMAGNANI;CALAMAI, 2000;VANNUCCHI et al, 2001). …”
