Ancestry dependent balancing selection of placental dysferlin at high-altitude

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Introduction: The placenta mediates fetal growth by regulating gas and nutrient exchange between the mother and the fetus. The cell type in the placenta where this nutrient exchange occurs is called the syncytiotrophoblast, which is the barrier between ...

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Pharmacotherapeutic Approaches to Treatment of Muscular Dystrophies

Biomolecules, 2023
Muscular dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of genetic muscle-wasting disorders that are subdivided based on the region of the body impacted by muscle weakness as well as the functional activity of the underlying genetic mutations. A common feature of

Diagnostic utility of inflammatory markers in formalin‐fixed and paraffin‐embedded muscle biopsies for idiopathic inflammatory myopathies

Histopathology, EarlyView.
Formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) muscle tissue supports robust immunohistochemical detection of MHC II, MxA, and p62 with performance comparable to frozen sections. This approach reliably identifies the pathological signatures of inclusion body myositis, dermatomyositis, immune‐mediated necrotizing myopathy, and overlap myositis, enhancing the ...

Cholesterol absorption blocker ezetimibe prevents muscle wasting in severe dysferlin‐deficient and mdx mice

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2021
Muscular dystrophy (MD) causes muscle wasting and is often lethal in patients due to a lack of proven therapies. In contrast, mouse models of MD are notoriously mild.

The Molecular Diagnosis of Myopathies: Integrating Genomic, Proteomic, and Pathological Insights Toward Precision Medicine

Clinical Genetics, Volume 110, Issue 1, Page 15-28, July 2026.
Advances in genomic, proteomic, and transcriptomic technologies are transforming the diagnosis of genetic myopathies. When integrated with traditional muscle pathology, multi‐omics approaches improve diagnostic yield, clarify disease mechanisms, and support more precise, mechanism‐based therapeutic strategies for patients with neuromuscular disorders ...

Whole‐Body Pattern of Muscle Degeneration and Progression in Sarcoglycanopathies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 1129-1140, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize whole‐body intramuscular fat distribution pattern in patients with sarcoglycanopathies and explore correlations with disease severity, duration and age at onset. Methods Retrospective, cross‐sectional, multicentric study enrolling patients with variants in one of the four sarcoglycan genes who underwent whole‐body ...

Beyond the first bout: Adaptations to repeated injuries across physiological and pathological conditions

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, May 2026.
The repeated bout effect (RBE) is an adaptive response to a subsequent injury; muscle physiological or pathological state determines the magnitude and trajectory of strength adaptation. Abstract Skeletal muscle exhibits remarkable plasticity following injury, yet most research has focused on responses to a single bout of eccentric contractions.
