Abstract

White muscle disease (WMD) is also known as Stiff Lamb Disease or Nutritional Muscular Dystrophy. Selenium and/or Vitamin E deficiency constitutes the etiology of the disease. This study aimed to immunohistochemically evaluate local protein expressions of Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB), Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and Microtubule-related protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 beta (LC3B) in WMD. The material of the study consisted of 15 WMD, and 6 healthy lamb heart samples. The heart tissues of the autopsied lambs were subjected to routine tissue processing and paraffin blocks were obtained. Then, it was stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin and immunohistochemical methods. Control group lambs had normal macroscopic appearance. Macroscopically, hyaline degeneration and zenker’s necrosis, calcification areas were observed in WMD tissues. Microscopically, degenerative and necrotic muscle fibers, calcification areas, fibrosis, mononuclear cell infiltrates and macrophage infiltrates were detected in WMD heart tissues. Immunohistochemically, significant increases were detected in IGF-1 (p
