An increased expression of adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT1), found in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), is known to lead to a decrease in nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) DNA binding and to sensitize muscle cells to oxidative stress and apoptosis. Receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) mediated by NF-kappaB activation is involved in proinflammatory pathomechanism and in muscle fiber regeneration in inflammatory myopathies and in limb girdle muscular dystrophy. Oxidative stress can stimulate RAGE- NF-kappaB pathway. Our purpose was to verify if oxidative stress may induce RAGE- NF-kappaB pathway activation in FSHD, contributing to the pathogenesis of such a disease.
