The CAPN3 p.Lys 254del variant is not always associated with dominant CAPN3‐related muscular dystrophy

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 472-476, April 2024.
Abstract Introduction/Aims Limb‐girdle muscular dystrophy R1 (LGMDR1) calpain 3‐related usually presents as a recessively transmitted weakness of proximal limb‐girdle muscles due to pathogenic variants in the CAPN3 gene. Pathogenic variants in this gene have also been found in patients with an autosomal dominantly inherited transmission pattern (LGMDD4)

Impaired regeneration in calpain-3 null muscle is associated with perturbations in mTORC1 signaling and defective mitochondrial biogenesis

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle, 2017
Background Previous studies in patients with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A) have suggested that calpain-3 (CAPN3) mutations result in aberrant regeneration in muscle.

Refining the molecular characterization of calpainopathy (LGMD2A) patients

open access: yes, 2011
Introduction: Mutations in the gene CAPN3 are responsible for calpainopathy or limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A), one of the most frequent forms of LGMD.

Calpainopathy presenting as foot drop in a 41 year old

open access: yes
Mutations in the gene encoding muscle-specific calpain 3 protease cause limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A. Calpainopathy is characterised by progressive symmetrical atrophy of pelvic, scapular and trunk muscles with an elevated creatine kinase. Most

open access: yes, 2015
The Russian literature gives inadequate attention to the problem of one of the most common form of autosomal recessive progressive limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A (LGMD2A) (calpainopathy). This paper highlights current views on the physiological

Image_1_Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophies (LGMDs): The Clinical Application of NGS Analysis, a Family Case Report.TIF

open access: yes, 2019
The diagnosis of LGMD2A (calpainopathy) can be challenging due to genetic heterogeneity and to high similarity with other LGMDs or neuromuscular disorders. In this setting, NGS panels are highly recommended to perform differential diagnosis, identify new
