Scapuloperoneal syndrome type Kaeser and a wide phenotypic spectrum of adult-onset, dominant myopathies are associated with the desmin mutation R350P [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In 1965, an adult-onset, autosomal dominant disorder with a peculiar scapuloperoneal distribution of weakness and atrophy was described in a large, multi-generation kindred and named ‘scapuloperoneal syndrome type Kaeser' (OMIM #181400).

Ultrasound-Guided Femoral and Sciatic Nerve Blocks for Repair of Tibia and Fibula Fractures in a Bennett's Wallaby (Macropus rufogriseus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Locoregional anesthetic techniques may be a very useful tool for the anesthetic management of wallabies with injuries of the pelvic limbs and may help to prevent capture myopathies resulting from stress and systemic opioids’ administration.

Bone health in adults with non‐ambulatory neuromuscular disorders: scoping review of risk factors, diagnosis and management

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐ambulatory adults have an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures due to reduced weight‐bearing and diminished neuromuscular stimulation, resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality. Aims This scoping review aimed to systematically evaluate risk factors, diagnostic indicators and management strategies for optimising ...

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

The mitochondrial‐targeted antioxidant SkQ1 prevents skeletal muscle mitochondrial‐apoptotic but not necroptotic signalling during ovarian cancer

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend An evaluation of the degree to which mitochondrial hydrogen peroxide emission (mH2O2)‐mediated apoptotic and necroptotic signalling contributes to skeletal muscle atrophy in an orthotopic epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) model. To determine whether attenuating mH2O2 could prevent regulated cell death signalling and mitigate muscle

Biological properties of α-actinin-2 and its role and mechanisms in disease development

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
α-Actinin-2 (encoded by the ACTN2 gene) is a critical cytoskeletal protein predominantly expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscle, where it anchors actin filaments to the sarcomeric Z-disk. While its structural role is well-established, emerging evidence

Novel MYL1 Intron Variant With Expanded Phenotype

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 6, Page 1378-1383, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Congenital myopathy‐14 (CMYO14) is an ultrarare autosomal recessive disorder caused by biallelic variants in MYL1, with only four patients reported to date. We describe what is likely the fifth reported patient, a neonate with severe hypotonia, respiratory insufficiency, and skeletal anomalies showing distinct histological changes of skeletal ...

PACS2 Alleviates Sepsis‐Induced Myopathy by Activating ERK–MAPK Signalling Pathway to Suppress ER‐Phagy

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 3, -Not available-.
ABSTRACT Background Sepsis‐induced myopathy (SIM) is a common and life‐threatening complication, but its underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. PACS2, a key resident protein at mitochondria‐associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs), regulates ER homeostasis under various pathological conditions.

Molecular mechanisms and phenotypic variation in RYR1-related congenital myopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Dominant mutations in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RYR1) gene are well-recognized causes of both malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (MHS) and central core disease (CCD).

Detection of Diagnostic Antibodies in Immune‐Mediated Diseases: A Focus on Antigens and Technologies

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.
This review explores autoantibody detection in immune‐mediated diseases, highlighting autoantigens including post‐translational modifications. We compared enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay and indirect immunofluorescence with automated chemiluminescence platforms.
