Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita in Pediatric Age: Correlation Between MUScular MRI and Functional Evaluation (AMUSE), Toward a Biomechanical Model

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) is a group of diseases with joint limitations at two or more distinct joint levels at birth. Joint limitations are not progressive, but the functional consequences have a lifelong impact on patients. The management of these conditions is therefore demanding, necessarily multidisciplinary, and is a long ...

A rhesus macaque model of α‐dystroglycanopathy caused by a POMT1 splice altering variant

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Rhesus macaques homozygous for a naturally occurring spice altering variant in the POMT1 gene develop lissencephaly, microphthalmia, and muscular contracture. The presentation models severe presentation of the human Walker‐Warburg syndrome. Abstract Background Biallelic mutations in genes associated with α‐dystroglycan glycosylation manifest in a ...
