Abstract: Immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) is a group of inflammatory myopathies that was distinguished from polymyositis in 2004. Most IMNMs are associated with anti-signal recognition particle (anti-SRP) or anti-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coA reductase (anti-HMGCR) myositis-specific autoantibodies, although ~20% of… read more here.
