A splice site mutation in laminin-α2 results in a severe muscular dystrophy and growth abnormalities in zebrafish.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of inherited muscle disorders. In patients, muscle weakness is usually present at or shortly after birth and is progressive in nature.

LAMA2 Neuropathies: Human Findings and Pathomechanisms From Mouse Models

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
Merosin deficient Congenital Muscular Dystrophy (MDC1A), or LAMA2-related muscular dystrophy (LAMA2-RD), is a recessive disorder resulting from mutations in the LAMA2 gene, encoding for the alpha-2 chain of laminin-211.

The congenital muscular dystrophies

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, 2023
AbstractBackgroundCongenital muscular dystrophies (CMDs) are genetically and clinically heterogeneous inherited conditions. Onset is typically within the first year of life. Most CMDs are autosomal recessive, except for de novo dominant mutations in LMNA‐related muscular dystrophy and some collagen‐6‐associated disorders.ResultsCMD is characterized by ...

Characterization of cardiac involvement in children with LMNA-related muscular dystrophy

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Introduction: LMNA-related muscular dystrophy is a rare entity that produce “laminopathies” such as Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD), limb–girdle muscular dystrophy type 1B (LGMD1B), and LMNA-related congenital muscular dystrophy (L-CMD).

Glycosylation in Congenital Muscular Dystrophies

Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2003
Mammalian cells produce many glycoproteins, i.e., proteins with covalently attached sugar chains. Recent advances in glycobiology have revealed the importance of sugar chains as biosignals for multi-cellular organisms including cell-cell communication, intracellular signaling, protein folding, and targeting of proteins within cells.

Chiral Nanoparticles Suppress Inflammatory Infiltration to Promote Extracellular Matrix Remodeling for Ectopia Lentis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
L‐cysteine‐configured chiral polyurethane nanoparticles suppress ocular inflammation and reduce extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation in ectopia lentis by regulating macrophages polarization and inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B signaling pathway. By promoting zonular fiber‐associated protein restoration and tissue repair, this minimally invasive ...
