Exercise-induced rhabdomyolysis and transient loss of deambulation as outset of partial carnitine palmityl transferase II deficiency

Abstract: We report the case of a 13-year-old boy with an abrupt onset of leg pain and muscle weakness, incapability of deambulation and a laboratory picture of exercise-induced acute rhabdomyolysis. Intravenous hyperhydration and forced diuresis were adopted to avoid renal complications. No evidence of articular or residual muscular damage were appreciated in the short-term. The recurrence of rhabdomyolysis required a muscular biopsy showing a disturbance of fatty acid -oxydation pathway.

“…Cardiac dysfunction induced by a HFD persists for two subsequent generations in Drosophila, and this is associated with reduced expression of bmm and PGC-1α [17,47,48]. CPT1 is the key enzyme in the carnitine dependent transport of long chain fatty acids across the mitochondrial inner membrane, and its deficiency results in a decrease rate of fatty acids beta-oxidation with decreased energy production [49][50][51]. A HFD impairs the mitochondrial biogenesis and function by negatively affecting CPT1 activity in skeletal muscle, which results in impaired skeletal muscle function [52][53][54][55].…”
