Presentation
Basophilic accumulations, which stained intensely with the NADH-TR reaction, were present in both fibre types. Electron microscopy revealed that these consisted of tightly packed parallel tubular arrays. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Recently, STIM1, encoding a major calcium sensor of the endoplasmic reticulum, was identified as a TAM gene.The present study aims to define the clinical, histological and ultrastructural phenotype of tubular aggregate myopathy and to assess the STIM1 [uniprot.org]
Entire Body System
- Episodic Weakness
Chapter First Online: 27 June 2014 Abstract This form of congenital myopathy is characterized by slowly progressive weakness without atrophy, myalgia, cramps, or episodic weakness and by muscle biopsy showing 60–90 % of fibers containing tubular aggregates [link.springer.com]
Respiratoric
- Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure
Acute hypercapnic respiratory failure (AHRF) is a common reason for hospital admission. Most patients have an underlying chronic lung disease such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Eyes
- Miosis
We present three members of an Italian family affected by tubular aggregate myopathy (TAM) and congenital miosis harboring a novel missense mutation in ORAI1. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
20 January 2017 This paper described three members of an Italian family affected by tubular aggregate myopathy (TAM) and congenital miosis harboring a novel missense mutation in ORAI1. [institut-myologie.org]

Musculoskeletal
- Winged Scapula

Neurologic
- Mydriasis
Taken together, the presence of reflex activity and the failure of phenylephrine mydriasis indicate that the abnormality is unlikely to be neuropathic in origin. [jnnp.bmj.com]

The biggest downer is being told by the medical profession that they know nothing about it and that there is no treatment. There definitely is treatment that helps some TAM folk. [braintalkcommunities.org]

Prognosis
In recent years, MDA-supported scientists have learned that centronuclear myopathies encompass a larger group of diseases than just X-linked myotubular myopathy, and that these types often have a better prognosis than the X-linked type. [mda.org]

Altogether, these results pave the way for understanding the etiology of this rare neuromuscular disorder that may be considered as a “tubular aggregates myopathy with synaptopathy”. [springermedizin.de]
Pathophysiology
No obvious pathophysiology groups are present in these diseases caused by loss-of-function mutations. Additional file 1 : Tables S7 and S8 list all gain-of-function and loss-of-function mutation candidates passed our computational filter. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Prevention
Tubular aggregates derive from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and are believed to represent an adaptive mechanism to regulate an increased intracellular level of calcium and prevent hypercontraction and necrosis of muscle fibers. [link.springer.com]
