Clinical Characteristics and Neurologic Outcomes of X-Linked Myotubular Myopathy [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Child Neurology, 2022
Purpose X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM) is a rare condition of centronuclear myopathy caused by myotubularin 1 (MTM1) mutations. Patients with XLMTM show different neurodevelopmental outcomes after the neonatal period depending on age and acquired ...

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Prevalence of Congenital Myopathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Congenital myopathy constitutes a heterogeneous group of orphan diseases that are mainly classified on the basis of muscle biopsy findings. This study aims to estimate the prevalence of congenital myopathy through a systematic review and meta-

Myotonia in centronuclear myopathy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1978
Centronuclear myopathy, which is unusual because of clinical myotonia, is described in two sisters. The diagnosis was established in adult life, but the first symptoms were noticed in infancy. The outstanding points of the clinical picture were mild amyotrophy, paresis, and clinical myotonia.

Pathogenic Mechanisms in Centronuclear Myopathies [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014
Centronuclear myopathies (CNMs) are a genetically heterogeneous group of inherited neuromuscular disorders characterized by clinical features of a congenital myopathy and abundant central nuclei as the most prominent histopathological feature. The most common forms of congenital myopathies with central nuclei have been attributed to X-linked recessive ...

Not young but still immature: a HIF-1α–mediated maturation checkpoint in regenerating muscle

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2022
Muscle fibers express particular isoforms of contractile proteins, depending on the fiber’s function and the organism’s developmental stage. In the adult, after a muscle injury, newly generated fibers transition through embryonic and neonatal myosins ...

Mutations in dynamin 2 cause dominant centronuclear myopathy

open access: yes
Autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy is a rare congenital myopathy characterized by delayed motor milestones and muscular weakness. In 11 families affected by centronuclear myopathy, we identified recurrent and de novo missense mutations in the gene
