Dysferlin in skeletal and heart muscle: from trafficking to therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Dysferlinopathies are a heterogeneous group of congenital muscle disorders characterized by late-onset muscular dystrophy and increased muscle prowess before onset of symptoms.

Nanodysferlins support membrane repair and binding to TRIM72/MG53 but do not localize to t-tubules or stabilize Ca2+ signaling

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development
Mutations in the DYSF gene, encoding the protein dysferlin, lead to several forms of muscular dystrophy. In healthy skeletal muscle, dysferlin concentrates in the transverse tubules and is involved in repairing the sarcolemma and stabilizing Ca2 ...

Dysferlin deficiency alters lipid metabolism and remodels the skeletal muscle lipidome in mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2019
Defects in the gene coding for dysferlin, a membrane-associated protein, affect many tissues, including skeletal muscles, with a resultant myopathy called dysferlinopathy.

Unmasking Potential Intracellular Roles For Dysferlin through Improved Immunolabeling Methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mutations in the DYSF gene that severely reduce the levels of the protein dysferlin are implicated in muscle-wasting syndromes known as dysferlinopathies.

Angiotensin II receptor blocker losartan exacerbates muscle damage and exhibits weak blood pressure-lowering activity in a dysferlin-null model of Limb-Girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
There is no cure or beneficial management option for Limb-Girdle muscular dystrophy (MD) type 2B (LGMD2B). Losartan, a blood pressure (BP) lowering angiotensin II (AngII) receptor type 1 (ATR1) blocker (ARB) with unique anti-transforming growth factor-β (

AHNAK, a novel component of the dysferlin protein complex, redistributes to the cytoplasm with dysferlin during skeletal muscle regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes
Mutations in dysferlin cause limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2B, Miyoshi myopathy and distal anterior compartment myopathy. Dysferlin is proposed to play a role in muscle membrane repair.

Dysferlin-deficient muscular dystrophy features amyloidosis [PDF]

open access: yes
Objective: Dysferlin (DYSF) gene mutations cause limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B and Miyoshi\u27s myopathy. The consequences of DYSF mutations on protein structure are poorly understood.
