OXPHOS complex deficiency in congenital myopathy: A systematic review. [PDF]
This systematic review assessed oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complex dysfunction in genetically confirmed congenital myopathies (CM). Among 5841 studies screened, 23 publications, comprising 45 CM cases, met the inclusion criteria. OXPHOS dysfunction was identified in 78% of cases, particularly where enzymology was performed, with RYR1 most ...

Genetic and Structural Variations in Czech Patients With Congenital Myopathies. [PDF]
We present 79 unrelated patients with genetically confirmed congenital myopathy (CM). A total of 113 mutant alleles carrying 97 different variants with a presumed pathogenic effect were identified. All but five variants were small scale. The mode of inheritance was autosomal dominant (AD) (44.3%), autosomal recessive (AR) (43.0%), and X‐linked (XL) (12.

l-Carnitine ameliorates congenital myopathy in a tropomyosin 3 de novo mutation transgenic zebrafish
Background Congenital myopathy (CM) is a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous muscle disorders, characterized by muscle weakness and hypotonia from birth. Currently, no definite treatment exists for CM.

KLHL40 mutation associated with severe nemaline myopathy, fetal akinesia, and cleft palate
The congenital myopathies are a heterogeneous group of inherited neuromuscular disorders characterized by early-onset muscular weakness, hypotonia, and developmental delay.

Dear Editor, Neuromuscular disorders still keep their mystery 1. Considering that cases with very mild symptoms cannot be diagnosed at all, it is almost impossible to know the true prevalence of these diseases 2.

Variable Myopathic Presentation in a Single Family with Novel Skeletal RYR1 Mutation [PDF]
We describe an autosomal recessive heterogeneous congenital myopathy in a large consanguineous family. The disease is characterized by variable severity, progressive course in 3 of 4 patients, myopathic face without ophthalmoplegia and proximal muscle ...

The RYR1 gene, which encodes the sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release channel or type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1) of skeletal muscle, was sequenced in 1988 and RYR1 variations that impair calcium homeostasis and increase susceptibility to malignant ...

Nemaline myopathy (NM) is the most common congenital myopathy, characterized by extreme weakness of the respiratory, limb, and facial muscles. Pathogenic variants in Tropomyosin 2 (TPM2), which encodes a skeletal muscle–specific actin binding protein ...

Core myopathy in two siblings with a biallelic variant in the CACNA1S gene-A case series study. [PDF]
Key Clinical Message Homozygous variants of Calcium Voltage‐Gated Channel Subunit Alpha1 S (CACNA1S) gene mutation were previously identified as causes of periodic paralysis and congenital early‐onset myopathy, while it could be manifested as a late‐onset congenital core myopathy.
