Myocardial strain analysis using cardiac magnetic resonance in patients with calpainopathy [PDF]
Background Limb–girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of rare muscular dystrophies. Subtype 2A (LGMD2A) also known as “calpainopathy” is an inherited autosomal recessive gene defect.

Disease Progression and Mutation Pattern in a Large Cohort of LGMD R1/LGMD 2A Patients from India [PDF]
Calpainopathy is caused by mutations in the CAPN3. There is only one clinical and genetic study of CAPN3 from India and none from South India. A total of 72 (male[M]:female [F] = 34:38) genetically confirmed probands from 72 independent families are ...

MyomiRs Expression in Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This manuscript is a comprehensive review focused on the role of microRNAs (miRs)—short RNA molecules—in Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD). LGMD encompasses various and heterogeneous rare genetic neuromuscular diseases, characterized by the progressive wasting and deterioration of muscle fibers, predominantly affecting the pelvic and ...

Variants in CAPN3 Causing Autosomal Dominant Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy Combined With Calpain-3 Deficiency. [PDF]
Abstract: Limb–girdle muscular dystrophy Type 2A/R1 or calpain‐3 deficiency is the most common autosomal recessive limb–girdle muscular dystrophy. However, in recent years, autosomal dominant cases and families with calpain‐3 deficiency have been reported, and there is an emerging interest in looking for single variants in the calpain‐3 gene in mildly ...
