Incidence and Prevalence of Congenital Myopathies ‐ A Population‐Based Study From Western Sweden

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 99, Issue 2, Page 382-392, February 2026.
Objective Congenital myopathies are a group of rare genetic muscle disorders. Previous studies have estimated point prevalences which only include surviving individuals. Our aim was to perform an epidemiological study with strict inclusion criteria, using modern diagnostic technology to present both incidences and prevalences, and to describe the ...

A recurrent RYR1 mutation associated with early-onset hypotonia and benign disease course

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2021
The ryanodine receptor RyR1 is the main sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ channel in skeletal muscle and acts as a connecting link between electrical stimulation and Ca2+-dependent muscle contraction.

Disruption of Nuclear‐Cytoskeletal Linkage by Coil‐1a LMNA Mutations in Emery–Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is a progressive genetic myopathy that mainly affects the muscles used for movement (skeletal muscles) and the heart (cardiac muscles). The disease is frequently associated with mutations in genes encoding nuclear envelope proteins, most notably LMNA, which encodes lamin A—a critical ...

Dynamin 2 the rescue for centronuclear myopathy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2014
Centronuclear myopathy is a lethal muscle disease. The most severe form of the disease, X-linked centronuclear myopathy, is due to mutations in the gene encoding myotubularin (MTM1), while mutations in dynamin 2 (DNM2) and amphiphysin 2/BIN1 (AMPH2) cause milder forms of myopathy.

Myostatin: a Circulating Biomarker Correlating with Disease in Myotubular Myopathy Mice and Patients

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2020
Myotubular myopathy, also called X-linked centronuclear myopathy (XL-CNM), is a severe congenital disease targeted for therapeutic trials. To date, biomarkers to monitor disease progression and therapy efficacy are lacking.

Clinical and Genetic Features of MUSK‐Related Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome: A Case Series and a Proposal for Clinical Classification

open access: yesActa Neurologica Scandinavica, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
MUSK‐related congenital myasthenic syndrome (MUSK‐CMS) is a rare neuromuscular disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the MUSK gene. The phenotypic spectrum varies significantly, ranging from mild, fatigable muscle weakness to severe neonatal onset with respiratory failure.

Autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy with unique clinical presentations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Centronuclear myopathies are clinically and genetically heterogenous diseases with common histological findings, namely, centrally located nuclei in muscle fibers with a predominance and hypotrophy of type 1 fibers.

Inactivating the lipid kinase activity of PI3KC2β is sufficient to rescue myotubular myopathy in mice

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2023
Phosphoinositides (PIs) are membrane lipids that regulate signal transduction and vesicular trafficking. X-linked centronuclear myopathy (XLCNM), also called myotubular myopathy, results from loss-of-function mutations in the MTM1 gene, which encodes the
