Hereditary myotonia in American Bulldog associated with a novel frameshift mutation in the CLCN1 gene

Neuromuscular Disorders, 2020
Hereditary myotonia (HM) is a genetic disorder that occurs due to mutations in the chloride channel and results in delayed relaxation of the skeletal muscles. HM has been described in 12 dog breeds, and in five of them, molecular studies of this disorder were performed and mutations in the CLCN1 gene were described.

Implication of intracellular chloride channel in extracellular matrix remodeling in pressure‐overloaded mice and patients with dilated cardiomyopathy

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Chloride intracellular channels (CLICs) are important in cardiac cellular physiology. We aimed to determine the pathophysiological roles of CLICs in the heart. For this, we analyzed CLIC expression in cardiomyocytes in a mouse transverse aortic constriction (TAC) model to induce cardiac hypertrophy and failure, as well as in ventricular ...

An Up-to-Date Overview of the Complexity of Genotype-Phenotype Relationships in Myotonic Channelopathies

Frontiers in Neurology, 2020
Myotonic disorders are inherited neuromuscular diseases divided into dystrophic myotonias and non-dystrophic myotonias (NDM). The latter is a group of dominant or recessive diseases caused by mutations in genes encoding ion channels that participate in ...

Alternative Splicing of SORBS1 Affects Neuromuscular Junction Integrity in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a multisystemic neuromuscular disorder characterized by CTG repeat expansion in the 3′ untranslated region of the dystrophia myotonica protein kinase coding gene. The presence of expanded CTG repeats in DMPK mRNAs leads to the sequestration of RNA‐binding factors such as the Muscleblind‐like (MBNL)

Identification and Functional Characterization ofCLCN1Mutations Found in Nondystrophic Myotonia Patients

Human Mutation, 2015
Mutations in the gene coding for the skeletal muscle Cl(-) channel (CLCN1) lead to dominant or recessive myotonia. Here, we identified and characterized CLCN1 mutations in Costa Rican patients, who had been clinically diagnosed with myotonic dystrophy type 1 but who were negative for DM1 mutations.

ClC-1 chloride channels: state-of-the-art research and future challenges

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
The voltage-dependent ClC-1 chloride channel belongs to the CLC channel/transporter family. It is a homodimer comprising two individual pores which can operate independently or simultaneously according to two gating modes, the fast and the slow gate of ...

Caloric Restriction Reprograms Adipose Tissues in Rhesus Monkeys

Aging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 12, December 2025.
Here we show shared and depot‐specific adaptations to life‐long CR in subcutaneous and visceral adipose depots from advanced‐age male rhesus monkeys. Transcriptomics reveal differences between the depots, as well as shared and distinct CR‐responsive pathways.

Pleiotropic Effects of the NSAID Fenamates on Chloride Channels: Opportunity for Ion Channelopathies?

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 13, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Chloride channels are involved in many cellular processes, including cell volume regulation, modulation of cell excitability, and electrolyte and water secretion. Mutations of these proteins are associated with heterogeneous diseases such as myotonia, cystic fibrosis, epilepsy, deafness, lysosomal storage disease, and various kinds of renal ...

Anesthesia Experience in a Patient with Myotonia Congenita

Bagcilar Medical Bulletin, 2019
Myotonia congenita (MC) was first described as a skeletal muscle disorder by Thomsen in 1876. As a result of the mutation of the chloride channel gene (CLCN1), which is on the 17th chromosome, patients suffer from muscle contractility and fatigue ...
