Advanced therapeutic approaches in sarcoglycanopathies
Sarcoglycanopathies are rare autosomal recessive diseases belonging to the family of limb-girdle muscular dystrophies. They are caused by mutations in the genes coding for α-, β-, γ-, and δ-sarcoglycan. The mutations impair the assembly of a key structural complex, which normally protects the sarcolemma of striated muscle from contraction-derived stress. Although heterogeneous, sarcoglycanopathies are characterized by progressive muscle degeneration, increased serum creatine kinase levels, loss of ambulation often during adolescence, and variable cardio-respiratory impairment. Genetic defects can impair sarcoglycan synthesis or produce a protein that is defective in folding. There is currently no effective treatment available; however, both gene replacement strategy and small molecule-based approaches show great promise and have entered or are starting to enter clinical trials.
