On noxious desmin: functional effects of a novel heterozygous desmin insertion mutation on the extrasarcomeric desmin cytoskeleton and mitochondria [PDF]

Human Molecular Genetics, 2003
Recent studies in desmin (-/-) mice have shown that the targeted ablation of desmin leads to pathological changes of the extrasarcomeric intermediate filament cytoskeleton, as well as structural and functional abnormalities of mitochondria in striated muscle. Here, we report on a novel heterozygous single adenine insertion mutation (c.5141_5143insA) in

Pregnancy in Desmin-Related Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

American Journal of Perinatology Reports, 2015
The course of desmin-related restrictive cardiomyopathy (DRCM) during pregnancy has not been described previously because of the rarity of the condition. Following an episode of heart failure antecedent to conception, a 28-year-old primigravida with DRCM presented to establish prenatal care during the first trimester. Prenatal management consisted of β-

Increased levels of interleukin-6 exacerbate the dystrophic phenotype in mdx mice [PDF]

, 2015
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by progressive lethal muscle degeneration and chronic inflammatory response. The mdx mouse strain has served as the animal model for human DMD. However, while DMD patients undergo extensive necrosis, the
