Biomarkers are measurable indicators of physiological processes, disease states, and therapy responses. Despite significant advances in MG diagnostics and therapeutics, predictive biomarkers for personalized treatment remain underdeveloped. This review explores the progress and challenges in identifying blood-based biomarkers for MG, highlighting their potential applications in diagnosis and disease monitoring. Established diagnostic blood biomarkers include autoantibodies against acetylcholine receptors (AChR) and muscle-specific tyrosine kinase (MuSK), which confirm MG diagnosis and guide initial treatment decisions. Prognostic biomarkers, such as microRNAs (miR-150-5p and miR-30e-5p), show promise in predicting disease progression. Pharmacodynamic biomarkers, including CD20+ B cell counts, may enhance treatment precision for therapies like Rituximab. Furthermore, emerging research on metabolites, T and B-cell markers, complement factors, and proteomics offer new avenues to refine MG subtyping and identify molecular signatures predictive of treatment response to novel immunosuppressants. While the journey toward clinically useful blood biomarkers in MG remains complex, ongoing collaborative efforts within the MG research community hold the potential to revolutionize disease management.

Of note is the frequent involvement of the brain in these pathologies. Given the inherent challenges associated with accessing human tissue and the limitations of mouse models, especially concerning mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), in vitro modelling is crucial in elucidating brain-related manifestations of mitochondrial diseases.In this review we recapitulate the current available in vitro models used to study neuronal cell types and advance our understanding of mitochondrial brain disease. This inquiry is especially pertinent considering the scarcity of suitable animal models, necessitating reliance on in vitro models to elucidate underlying molecular mechanisms. We found fifty papers modelling neuronal mechanisms of mitochondrial diseases in-vitro. While there was an even split between nuclear and mtDNA mutations, MELAS was the most commonly modelled syndrome. The emerging technologies in the stem cell field have revolutionized our approach to investigate cellular specificity in mitochondrial diseases, and we found a clear shift from neuroblastoma cell lines to iPSC-derived models. Interestingly, most of these studies reported impaired neuronal differentiation in mutant cells independent of the syndrome being modelled. The generation of appropriate in vitro models and subsequent mechanistic insights will be central for the development of novel therapeutic avenues in the mitochondrial field.</p>","PeriodicalId":16536,"journal":{"name":"Journal of neuromuscular diseases","volume":" ","pages":"22143602241307198"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144326072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
