Respiratory features of centronuclear myopathy in the Netherlands [PDF]
Centronuclear myopathy (CNM) is a heterogeneous group of muscle disorders primarily characterized by muscle weakness and variable degrees of respiratory dysfunction caused by mutations in MTM1, DNM2, RYR1, TTN and BIN1. X-linked myotubular myopathy has been the focus of recent natural history studies and clinical trials.

Phosphatase-dead myotubularin ameliorates X-linked centronuclear myopathy phenotypes in mice. [PDF]
Myotubularin MTM1 is a phosphoinositide (PPIn) 3-phosphatase mutated in X-linked centronuclear myopathy (XLCNM; myotubular myopathy). We investigated the involvement of MTM1 enzymatic activity on XLCNM phenotypes.

Mutations in dynamin 2 cause dominant centronuclear myopathy
International audienceAutosomal 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

Respiratory assessment in centronuclear myopathies [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe centronuclear myopathies (CNMs) are a group of inherited neuromuscular disorders classified as congenital myopathies. While several causative genes have been identified, some patients do not harbor any of the currently known mutations. These diverse disorders have common histological features, which include a high proportion of centrally ...

Dynamin 2 Mutations Cause Sporadic Centronuclear Myopathy with Neonatal Onset [PDF]
We report four heterozygous dynamin 2 (DNM2) mutations in five centronuclear myopathy patients aged 1 to 15 years. They all presented with neonatal hypotonia with weak suckling. Thereafter, their phenotype progressively improved.
