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

Studies on muscular dystrophy associated genes [PDF]
Muscular dystrophy is a collective group of genetic disorder that results in progressive wasting of skeletal muscle. Dysferlin, the gene responsible for Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) and Miyoshi Myopathy (MM) was found to be a member of

Dysferlin-peptides redirect mutant dysferlin in transfected C2C12 cells.
C2C12 cells were transfected with either GFP-tagged wildtype human dysferlin cDNA or missense-mutated dysferlin cDNA DYSF p.G299R or p.L1341P. Transfected cells were treated with TAT-labeled dysferlin-peptides corresponding to the mutation.

Targeting progressive multiple sclerosis: Toward mechanism‐informed precision medicine
Abstract Multiple sclerosis has undergone a therapeutic revolution over the past three decades. Randomized clinical trials and real‐world data demonstrate that modern disease‐modifying therapies substantially reduce relapse rates and acute inflammatory activity detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Placental Dysferlin Expression is Reduced in Severe Preeclampsia [PDF]
Dysferlin (DYSF) and myoferlin (MYOF), members of the ferlin family of membrane proteins, are co-expressed in human placental syncytiotrophoblast (STB). Although the role of these ferlin proteins in the placenta has yet to be established, it has been suggested that DYSF and MYOF may contribute to the stability of the apical STB plasma membrane.

Dysferlin-null A/J myofibers generate abnormal Ca2+ transients that are slightly reduced in amplitude compared to controls. These are further reduced in amplitude by hypoosmotic shock and often appear as Ca2+ waves (Lukyanenko et al., J. Physiol., 2017).

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 ...

Genetic analysis of limb girdle muscular dystrophy and Miyoshi myopathy [PDF]
The autosomal recessive muscular dystrophies encompass limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) and Miyoshi myopathy (MM), which can show clinical and genetic overlap.

Plasmid-Mediated Gene Therapy in Mouse Models of Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy
We delivered plasmid DNA encoding therapeutic genes to the muscles of mouse models of limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) 2A, 2B, and 2D, deficient in calpain3, dysferlin, and alpha-sarcoglycan, respectively.

Whole‐Body Pattern of Muscle Degeneration and Progression in Sarcoglycanopathies
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 ...
