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

Non-dystrophic myotonias: clinical and mutation spectrum of 70 German patients [PDF]
Introduction. Non-dystrophic myotonias (NDM) are heterogeneous diseases caused by mutations in CLCN1 and SCN4A. The study aimed to describe the clinical and genetic spectrum of NDM in a large German cohort. Methods.

Caloric Restriction Reprograms Adipose Tissues in Rhesus Monkeys
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.

Paramyotonia congenita in a Slovak population: Genetic and pedigree analysis of 3 families
Background: Paramyotonia congenita is a non-dystrophic myotonia, in which muscle relaxation is delayed after voluntary or evoked contraction. This condition cannot be distinguished on the basis of symptoms and signs alone.

Molecular cytogenetic characterization of a critical region in bands 7q35-q36 commonly deleted in malignant myeloid disorders [PDF]
Loss of chromosome 7 (-7) or deletion of the long arm (7q-) are recurring chromosome abnormalities in myeloid leukemias. The association of - 7/7q- with myeloid leukemia suggests that these regions contain novel tumor suppressor gene(s), whose loss of ...

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 ...

Background Non-dystrophic myotonias (NDMs) are skeletal muscle disorders involving myotonia distinct from myotonic dystrophy. It has been reported that the muscle pathology is usually normal or comprises mild myopathic changes in NDMs.
