Portrait of Dysferlinopathy: Diagnosis and Development of Therapy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2023
Dysferlinopathy is a disease caused by a dysferlin deficiency due to mutations in the DYSF gene. Dysferlin is a membrane protein in the sarcolemma and is involved in different functions, such as membrane repair and vesicle fusion, T-tubule development and maintenance, Ca2+ signalling, and the regulation of various molecules.

A Dysferlin Exon 32 Nonsense Mutant Mouse Model Shows Pathological Signs of Dysferlinopathy [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Dysferlinopathies are a group of autosomal recessive muscular dystrophies caused by pathogenic variants in the DYSF gene. While several animal models of dysferlinopathy have been developed, most of them involve major disruptions of the Dysf gene locus ...

Asymptomatic and oligosymptomatic states of dysferlinopathy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuromuscular Diseases
Dysferlinopathy is a phenotypically heterogeneous, inherited, progressive muscular dystrophy caused by mutations in the DYSF gene. Dysferlinopathy is marked by elevated serum creatine kinase (CK) and can in some cases manifest as hyperCKemia in asymptomatic or low-symptom states.

Serum Cytokine Profile in a Patient Diagnosed with Dysferlinopathy [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Medicine, 2017
Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2 (LGMD2B) is a mild form of dysferlinopathy, characterized by limb weakness and wasting. It is an autosomal recessive disease, with currently 140 mutations in the LGMD2B gene identified.

Dysferlinopathy: A Case Report and Literature Update [PDF]

open access: yesİstanbul Medical Journal, 2016
Dysferlinopathy is a rare autosomal recessive myopathy, resulting in the lack or absence of dysferlin production caused by mutations in the encoding gene.

Water T2 could predict functional decline in patients with dysferlinopathy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2022
Background Water T2 (T2H2O) mapping is increasingly being used in muscular dystrophies to assess active muscle damage. It has been suggested as a surrogate outcome measure for clinical trials.

Assessing the Relationship of Patient Reported Outcome Measures With Functional Status in Dysferlinopathy: A Rasch Analysis Approach [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
Dysferlinopathy is a muscular dystrophy with a highly variable functional disease progression in which the relationship of function to some patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) has not been previously reported.

Heterogeneous Characteristics of Korean Patients with Dysferlinopathy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Korean Medical Science, 2012
Dysferlinopathy is caused by mutations in the DYSF gene. To characterize the clinical spectrum, we investigated the characteristics of 31 Korean dysferlinopathy patients confirmed by immunohistochemistry. The mean age of symptom onset was 22.23 ± 7.34 yr. The serum creatine kinase (CK) was highly increased (4- to 101-fold above normal).

Comparison of strength testing modalities in dysferlinopathy [PDF]

open access: yesMuscle & Nerve, 2022
AbstractIntroduction/AimsDysferlinopathy demonstrates heterogeneity in muscle weakness between patients, which can progress at different rates over time. Changing muscle strength due to disease progression or from an investigational product is associated with changing functional ability.
