1.	DesminIBA 01/01/1992 - "Muscle biopsy showed sarcoplasmic accumulation of desmin filaments leading to diagnosis of desmin storage myopathy. " 05/01/1996 - "A number of myopathies whose common denominator is abnormal foci of desmin positivity have been described under the rubrics of spheroid body myopathy, cytoplasmic body myopathy, Mallory body myopathy, myopathy with granulofilamentous inclusions, desmin storage myopathy, and intermediate filament myopathy. " 02/01/1999 - "Since the co-localization of desmin and vimentin and the absence of phosphorylated desmin suggest that the overexpression of desmin may be reflected in the reactive change or regenerating process, the present myopathy should be regarded as an entity separate from desmin-storage myopathy or desmin-related myopathies.
