The GNE gene provides instructions for making an enzyme found in cells and tissues throughout the body. This enzyme is involved in a chemical pathway that produces sialic acid, which is a simple sugar that attaches to the ends of more complex molecules on the surface of cells. By modifying these molecules, sialic acid influences a wide variety of cellular functions, including cell movement (migration), the attachment of cells to one another (adhesion), signaling between cells, and inflammation.</p><p>The variants responsible for GNE myopathy reduce the activity of the enzyme produced from the GNE gene, which decreases the production of sialic acid. As a result, less of this simple sugar is available to attach to molecules on the cell surface. Researchers are working to determine how a shortage of sialic acid leads to progressive muscle weakness in people with GNE myopathy. Sialic acid is important for the normal function of many different cells and tissues, so it is unclear why the signs and symptoms of this disorder appear to be limited to skeletal muscles.</p><p class=\"section-source\"><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/gne-myopathy/#causes\">MedlinePlus Genetics: Causes</a></p>","key":"forms","title":"What causes GNE myopathy?"},{"bodyHtml":"<p>Difficulty lifting the front part of the foot (foot drop) is often the first sign of GNE myopathy. For individuals with GNE myopathy, foot drop is caused by weakness of a muscle in the lower leg called the tibialis anterior. This muscle helps raise the foot up. Weakness in the tibialis anterior alters the way a person walks and makes it difficult to run and climb stairs. As the disorder progresses, weakness also develops in the muscles of the upper legs, hips, shoulders, and hands. Unlike most forms of myopathy, GNE myopathy usually does not affect the quadriceps, which are a group of large muscles at the front of the thigh. This condition also does not affect the muscles of the eye or heart, and it does not cause neurological problems. Weakness in leg muscles makes walking increasingly difficult, and most people with GNE myopathy require wheelchair assistance within 20 years after the signs and symptoms of the disorder appear.</p><p>People with the characteristic features of GNE myopathy have been described in several different populations. When the condition was first reported in Japanese families, researchers called it distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRV) or Nonaka myopathy. When a similar disorder was discovered in Iranian Jewish families, researchers called it rimmed vacuole myopathy or hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM). It has since become clear that these conditions are variations of a single disorder caused by changes in the same gene.</p><p class=\"section-source\">Source: <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/gne-myopathy\">MedlinePlus Genetics</a></p>","key":"overview","title":"Condition overview"}],"sharedSources":[],"slug":"gne-myopathy","sourceDocuments":[{"name":"GNE myopathy","reviewed":"2024-03","sections":{"causes":{"fetchedAt":"2026-10-20T20:21:54.394383+00:00","label":"Causes","pageSha256":"810bfd01ee17d83d75d5ca5eec3d60e28ed7ce38a590475278fbcb05a9ae375d","sourceUrl":"https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/gne-myopathy/#causes","status":"available"}},"source_release":"2026-10-01","url":"https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/gne-myopathy"}],"sourceNote":"MedlinePlus descriptions and Causes; original HPO annotations.","takeawayHtml":"Cause explanations are from MedlinePlus Genetics.
