Myo‐Guide: A Machine Learning‐Based Web Application for Neuromuscular Disease Diagnosis With MRI

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesAnnals 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 ...

Clinical, Molecular, and Functional Characterization of CLCN1 Mutations in Three Families with Recessive Myotonia Congenita [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Myotonia congenita (MC) is an inherited muscle disease characterized by impaired muscle relaxation after contraction, resulting in muscle stiffness. Both recessive (Becker's disease) or dominant (Thomsen's disease) MC are caused by mutations in the CLCN1

New Horizons in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1: Cellular Senescence as a Therapeutic Target

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 3, March 2025.
Cellular senescence accumulates in the skeletal muscle of patients with myotonic dystrophy Type 1, leading to the production of senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP) factors that have detrimental effects. Targeting these senescent cells with senotherapeutics could restore muscle homeostasis and slow disease progression.

Spectrum of mutations in the major human skeletal muscle chloride channel gene (CLCN1) leading to myotonia

open access: yes, 1995
Autosomal dominant myotonia congenita and autoso-mal recessive generalized myotonia (GM) are genetic disorders characterized by the symptom of myotonia, which is based on an electrical instability of the muscle fiber membrane.

Hereditary canine myotonia: clinical characteristics, electromyography and molecular study in the CLCN1 gene

open access: yes, 2019
A miotonia hereditária (MH) é uma enfermidade muscular hereditária não distrófica. Manifesta-se pela presença de hipertrofia muscular e miotonia que melhora com o exercício, fenômeno conhecido como “warm-up”.

Toe walking in children with variants in myopathy-associated genes: A retrospective descriptive cohort study

open access: yesGlobal Medical Genetics
Background: Tip-toe walking may occur in children carrying variants associated with, neuromuscular disorders, but characteristics of children carrying variants in selected, muscle-related genes remain insufficiently characterized.

A novel mutation in CLCN1 associated with feline myotonia congenita. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Myotonia congenita (MC) is a skeletal muscle channelopathy characterized by inability of the muscle to relax following voluntary contraction. Worldwide population prevalence in humans is 1:100,000.
