Respiratory muscle weakness results in substantial morbidity and mortality in individuals with almost all forms of neuromuscular disease (NMD), including both the infantile and adult phenotypes of Pompe disease. Although individual patterns of involvement vary, respiratory weakness in Pompe disease typically affects both the inspiratory and expiratory muscle systems. Our pilot data in two individuals with late-onset Pompe disease suggest that RMST may be a treatment for the progressive respiratory weakness encountered in this condition.
