Can You Make Me Laugh? Toddlers’ and Parents’ Shared Positive Expressions in Playful Interactions
ABSTRACT Laughter and smiling are frequently experienced in social settings, yet more research is required to delineate their development and dynamics. We investigated toddlers’ and parents’ shared positive expressions in playful interactions. We observed eighty 30‐month‐old toddler–parent dyads in two phases of 8 min in length. In each, one person was

MYH6‐Cre Insertion Accelerates Cardiac Phenotype in Dystrophic D2‐mdx Mice
D2.B10‐Dmdmdx/J dystrophic mice were crossed with Tg(myh6‐cre)1Jmk/J mice to create a cardiac‐specific Myh6‐cre (Cre+) promoter region on the D2‐mdx background. Cre+ dystrophic animals demonstrate worse right and left ventricular systolic function, which correlates with increased cardiac‐specific fibrosis and ultimately reduced survival.

Myostatin Levels in SMA Following Disease‐Modifying Treatments: A Multi‐Center Study
ABSTRACT Objective This study investigated myostatin levels in SMA patients receiving disease‐modifying therapies (DMTs) to understand their relationship with treatment duration and functional status. Methods Our study includes both cross‐sectional and longitudinal analyses of myostatin levels in treated SMA patients.

Translating Muscle RNAseq Into the Clinic for the Diagnosis of Muscle Diseases
ABSTRACT Objective Approximately half of patients with hereditary myopathies remain without a definitive genetic diagnosis after DNA next‐generation sequencing (NGS). Here, we implemented transcriptome analysis of muscle biopsies as a complementary diagnostic tool for patients with muscle disease but no definitive genetic diagnosis after exome ...

Engineering Assembloids to Mimic Graft‐Host Skeletal Muscle Interaction
This study develops a graft‐host skeletal muscle assembloid model combining neuromuscular organoids with tissue‐engineered constructs. Pre‐seeding decellularized muscles with myogenic cells enhances cell migration and axon invasion from the organoid. The model exhibits regenerative capacity following acute damage, advancing the understanding of human ...
