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.

Pathomechanisms of a CLCN1 Mutation Found in a Russian Family Suffering From Becker's Myotonia
Frontiers in Neurology, 2020 Objective: Myotonia congenita (MC) is a rare muscle disease characterized by sarcolemma over-excitability inducing skeletal muscle stiffness. It can be inherited either as an autosomal dominant (Thomsen's disease) or an autosomal recessive (Becker's ...

Clinical and genetic characteristics of myotonia congenita in Chinese population
ChannelsMyotonia congenita (MC) is a rare hereditary muscle disease caused by variants in the CLCN1 gene. Currently, the correlation of phenotype-genotype is still uncertain between dominant-type Thomsen (TMC) and recessive-type Becker (BMC).

Rinsho Shinkeigaku, 2013 Autosomal-dominant type of myotonia (Thomsen's disease) and autosomal-recessive one (Becker's disease) are caused by mutations in the skeletal muscle voltage-gated chloride channel gene (CLCN1). Clinical manifestation of the diseases ranges from minimum to severely disabling myotonia.

Myo‐Guide: A Machine Learning‐Based Web Application for Neuromuscular Disease Diagnosis With MRI
Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2025.ABSTRACT Background Neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) are rare disorders characterized by progressive muscle fibre loss, leading to replacement by fibrotic and fatty tissue, muscle weakness and disability. Early diagnosis is critical for therapeutic decisions, care planning and genetic counselling.

Clinical characterization of Collagen XII‐related disease caused by biallelic COL12A1 variants
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 602-614, March 2025.Abstract Objective While there have been several reports of patients with dominantly acting COL12A1 variants, few cases of the more severe recessive Collagen XII‐related disorders have previously been documented. Methods We present detailed clinical, immunocytochemical, and imaging data on eight additional patients from seven families with biallelic ...
