ACTA1‐Related Adult‐Onset Scapuloperoneal Myopathy With Cores and Rods
We report a patient with an adult‐onset, slowly progressive, ACTA1‐related scapuloperoneal myopathy with cores and rods, determined by the heterozygous variant NM_001100.4:c.1001C > T, p.(Pro334Leu). The scapuloperoneal phenotype could represent a distinct subcategory, and the characterisation of this patient with a less severe, different clinical ...

Recessive mutations in RYR1 are a common cause of congenital fiber type disproportion
The main histological abnormality in congenital fiber type disproportion (CFTD) is hypotrophy of type 1 (slow twitch) fibers compared to type 2 (fast twitch) fibers.

Gene therapy for genetic diseases: challenges and future directions
The graphical abstract provides an overview of gene therapy approaches, detailing the components of the therapy and the various delivery routes. Both in vivo and ex vivo strategies facilitate the implementation of gene replacement, gene suppression, gene supplementation, and gene editing.

A founder variant in the RYR1 gene is associated with hyperCKemia, myalgia and muscle cramps
Abstract Background and purpose Pathogenic variants in the RYR1 gene have been associated with a variety of conditions, ranging from congenital myopathy to adult manifestations. Our aim was to characterize the p.Leu2286Val variant in 17 Basque patients, to accurately determine its correlation with clinical features and to explore the possible founder ...

Complementary Roles of Structure and Variant Effect Predictors in RyR1 Clinical Interpretation
RyR1‐related disorders, arising from variants in the RYR1 gene encoding the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor, encompass a wide range of dominant and recessive phenotypes. The extensive length of RyR1 and diverse mechanisms underlying disease variants pose significant challenges for clinical interpretation, exacerbated by the limited performance and ...

A Case of Cogential Fiber Type Disproportion With Multiple Anomalies [PDF]
Congenital fiber type disproportion (CFTD) is a rare form of congenital myopathy characterized by the smallness and the marked predominance of type 1 fibers, which presents congenital hypotonia, delayed motor milestones, joint contractures, and skeletal ...

Abstract Aims Concentrations of high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs‐cTnT) are frequently elevated in stable patients with confirmed muscle dystrophies. However, sparse information is available on the interpretation of serial concentration changes. Methods Hs‐cTnT was collected in 35 stable outpatients with confirmed skeletal muscle dystrophies at 0
