Myogenesis defects in a patient-derived iPSC model of hereditary GNE myopathy

open access: yesnpj Regenerative Medicine, 2022
Hereditary muscle diseases are disabling disorders lacking effective treatments. UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) myopathy (GNEM) is an autosomal recessive distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles typically manifesting in ...

Distal myopathy with ADSSL1 mutations in Korean patients

open access: yes, 2018
To understand the characteristics of ADSSL1 myopathy, we investigated the clinical manifestation in Korean patients with ADSSL1 mutations. We developed a targeted panel of 16 distal-myopathy genes and recruited a total of 12 patients with genetically ...
