Patterns of lipid metabolism were studied in blood plasma and erythrocytes of patients with various forms of hereditary myopathies (Duchenn disease, Bekker-Kiner disease, Erba-Roth disease, Landuzy-Dejerin disease, Sharko-Mary neural amyotrophy). These diseases were characterized by a number of common patterns: deficiency of phospholipids, specific alterations in properties of lipoproteins and in content of cholesterol. In the Duchenn disease specific alterations typical for each step of the disease were shown. These alterations might be of prognostic significance for evaluation of the rate of myodystrophy development.
