DNAJB6 myopathies: Focused review on an emerging and expanding group of myopathies

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2016
Mutations in the DNAJB6 gene have been associated with the autosomal dominant limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 1D (LGMD1D), a disorder characterized by abnormal protein aggregates and rimmed vacuoles in muscle fibers.

Clinical and molecular genetic analysis in Chinese patients with distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Human Genetics, 2011
Distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRVs) is an autosomal recessive vacuolar myopathy that has been reported in different ethnic populations with the common mutations of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) gene. We presented the clinical, pathological and genetic characteristics of eight Chinese DMRV patients from ...

Small Fiber Morphology and Function in Inclusion Body Myositis—A Multimodal Assessment Including Confocal Corneal Microscopy

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2025.
Multimodal small fiber assessment in inclusion body myositis. ABSTRACT Introduction The extent of peripheral nerve involvement in inclusion body myositis (IBM) remains a topic of ongoing scientific discussion. In this study, we aimed to explore the involvement of small nerve fibers in IBM using a range of diagnostic methods, including, for the first ...

Novel valosin-containing protein mutations associated with multisystem proteinopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Over fifty missense mutations in the gene coding for valosin-containing protein (VCP) are associated with a unique autosomal dominant adult-onset progressive disease associated with combinations of proximo-distal inclusion body myopathy (IBM), Paget's ...

New ALS-related genes expand the spectrum paradigm of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by the degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons. Clinical heterogeneity is a well-recognized feature of the disease as age of onset, site of onset and the duration of the disease can vary greatly ...

Autophagy in a Mouse Model of Distal Myopathy with Rimmed Vacuoles or Hereditary Inclusion Body Myopathy [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2007
Distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRV) or hereditary inclusion body myopathy (hIBM) is an autosomal recessive disorder clinically characterized by weakness that initially involves the distal muscles, although other muscles can be affected as well.
