Functional effects of mutations in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor type 1 (RYR1) linked to malignant hyperthermia and central core disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disorder with autosomal dominant inheritance. In susceptible individuals, a MH crisis may be triggered by commonly used halogenated anaesthetics (halothane, isoflurane) or muscle relaxants ...

Preclinical model systems of ryanodine receptor 1-related myopathies and malignant hyperthermia: a comprehensive scoping review of works published 1990–2019

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2020
Background Pathogenic variations in the gene encoding the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1) are associated with malignant hyperthermia (MH) susceptibility, a life-threatening hypermetabolic condition and RYR1-related myopathies (RYR1-RM), a ...

A structural model of the pore-forming region of the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2009
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are ion channels that regulate muscle contraction by releasing calcium ions from intracellular stores into the cytoplasm. Mutations in skeletal muscle RyR (RyR1) give rise to congenital diseases such as central core disease ...

Observing Huntington's disease: the European Huntington's Disease Network's REGISTRY. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The unparalleled collection of clinical data and biomaterials within the EHDN's REGISTRY can expedite the search for disease modifiers (genetic and environmental) of age at onset and disease progression that could be harnessed for the development of ...

‘Dusty core disease’ (DuCD): expanding morphological spectrum of RYR1 recessive myopathies

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2019
Several morphological phenotypes have been associated to RYR1-recessive myopathies. We recharacterized the RYR1-recessive morphological spectrum by a large monocentric study performed on 54 muscle biopsies from a large cohort of 48 genetically confirmed ...

In vivo RyR1 reduction in muscle triggers a core-like myopathy

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2020
Mutations in the RYR1 gene, encoding the skeletal muscle calcium channel RyR1, lead to congenital myopathies, through expression of a channel with abnormal permeability and/or in reduced amount, but the direct functional whole organism consequences of ...

Gene-regulation modules in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease revealed by single-nucleus ATAC-seq

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2023
This study uncovers cell-type-specific global gene regulation in NAFLD progression, identifying core genes and shedding light on the disease’s molecular mechanisms.

Expanding the clinical-pathological and genetic spectrum of RYR1-related congenital myopathies with cores and minicores: an Italian population study

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2022
Mutations in the RYR1 gene, encoding ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1), are a well-known cause of Central Core Disease (CCD) and Multi-minicore Disease (MmD). We screened a cohort of 153 patients carrying an histopathological diagnosis of core myopathy (cores ...

Addition of glomerular lesion severity improves the value of anemia status for the prediction of renal outcomes in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesRenal Failure, 2022
We aimed to determine the utility of biopsy data and anemia for the prediction of renal outcomes in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes. In total, 441 Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes and biopsy-confirmed diabetic nephropathy (DN) were enrolled in
