Prediction and prognostic role of left ventricular systolic dysfunction in family screening for dilated cardiomyopathy and non‐dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 27, Issue 12, Page 3260-3268, December 2025.
Aims The prognostic significance of detecting left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction during family screening programmes (FSPs) in relatives of probands affected by dilated (DCM) and non‐dilated left ventricular (NDLVC) cardiomyopathies remain unclear.

Role of desmoplakin in supporting neuronal activity, neurogenic processes, and emotional-related behaviors in the dentate gyrus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
Desmoplakin (Dsp) is a component of desmosomal cell–cell junctions that interacts with the cadherin complex and cytoskeletal intermediate filaments. In addition to its function as an adhesion component, Dsp is involved in various biological processes ...

PRMT1 in Health and Disease: Emerging Perspectives From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.
Protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) is a pivotal enzyme that catalyzes the asymmetric dimethylation of arginine residues, thereby functioning as a critical epigenetic regulator of diverse biological processes such as gene expression, RNA splicing, and DNA repair.

Naxos Disease and Related Cardio-Cutaneous Syndromes

open access: yesJACC: Advances
Naxos disease is a rare autosomal recessive condition combining arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, woolly hair, and palmoplantar keratoderma. The first identified causative variant was in the gene encoding the desmosomal protein plakoglobin.

Exploring Desmin as a Potential Modifier in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy–Associated Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 241, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a rare X‐linked genetic disorder, is affecting skeletal and cardiac muscles due to the loss of the dystrophin protein. Modifier proteins, whose expression is altered in DMD patients, may influence disease progression.

Desmoplakin and periplakin genetically and functionally contribute to eosinophilic esophagitis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic allergic inflammatory disease with a complex underlying genetic etiology. Here, the authors identify a series of rare variants in DSP and PPL in multiplex families with EoE and uncover a pathogenic role for ...

Mutations in desmoglein-1 cause diverse inherited palmoplantar keratoderma phenotypes:implications for genetic screening [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
INTRODUCTION: The inherited palmoplantar keratodermas (PPKs) are a heterogeneous group of genodermatoses, characterised by thickening of the epidermis of the palms and soles. No classification system unites satisfactorily clinical presentation, pathology

Mimicking Darier Disease In Vitro: A Human Epidermal Organoid Approach

open access: yesExperimental Dermatology, Volume 34, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Darier disease (DD) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the ATP2A2 gene, resulting in calcium dysregulation and impaired keratinocyte adhesion. Due to the paucity of suitable models, understanding the molecular mechanisms of DD has been challenging.
