Skeletal muscle: molecular structure, myogenesis, biological functions, and diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 5, Issue 7, July 2024.
The article systematically and comprehensively reviews the physiological and pathological processes associated with skeletal muscles from five perspectives: molecule basis, myogenesis, biological function, poststimulation response, and myopathy. We primarily focus on nuclei‐related behaviors of skeletal muscle, cell–cell fusion, and nuclei migration in

Genetic analysis of limb girdle muscular dystrophy and Miyoshi myopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The autosomal recessive muscular dystrophies encompass limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) and Miyoshi myopathy (MM), which can show clinical and genetic overlap.

Walking with giants: The challenges of variant impact assessment in the giant sarcomeric protein titin

open access: yesWIREs Mechanisms of Disease, Volume 16, Issue 2, March/April 2024.
The giant protein titin is a vital component in our muscles, and even small variations can lead to complications including life‐threatening heart disease. We review the titin missense variants reported in the scientific literature to aid researchers in tackling titin‐associated diseases.

Mechanochemical consequences of myopathy‐linked mutations in Tpm2.2 on striated muscle contractility

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 38, Issue 1, 15 January 2024.
Myopathy‐linked mutations in Tpm2.2, an isoform of striated muscle tropomyosin, can lead to hypercontractile or hypocontractile molecular phenotypes. Depending on the localization of the mutations in Tpm2.2 sequence, they have different impacts on the association of Tpm2.2 with actin and the regulation of the actin–myosin cross‐bridge cycle.

Mutations in TPM2 and congenital fibre type disproportion

open access: yes, 2012
Contains fulltext : 108778.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)The main diagnostic feature of congenital fibre type disproportion is that type 1 fibres are consistently smaller than type 2 fibres in the absence of other histological

Functional effects of mutations in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor type 1 (RYR1) linked to malignant hyperthermia and central core disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disorder with autosomal dominant inheritance. In susceptible individuals, a MH crisis may be triggered by commonly used halogenated anaesthetics (halothane, isoflurane) or muscle relaxants ...

A TPM3 mutation causing cap myopathy.

open access: yes, 2009
International audienceCap disease is a rare congenital myopathy associated with skeletal malformations and respiratory involvement. Abnormally arranged myofibrils taking the appearance of a "cap" are the morphological hallmark of this entity. We report a

Frequency and phenotype of patients carrying TPM2 and TPM3 gene mutations in a cohort of 94 patients with congenital myopathy

open access: yes, 2014
Congenital myopathies are difficult to classify correctly through molecular testing due to the size and heterogeneity of the genes involved. Therefore, the prevalence of the various genetic causes of congenital myopathies is largely unknown.
