A Novel Dysferlin-Binding Kinase CK2α Promotes Plasma Membrane Repair in Dysferlinopathy. [PDF]

FASEB J
When the cell membrane is injured, extracellular calcium enters the cell, triggering the accumulation of dysferlin at the lesion site. In the presence of dysferlin, CK2 is efficiently recruited to the damaged membrane and maintains its kinase activity through interaction with dysferlin.

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

Biomedicines, 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 ...

High-Density Lipoprotein-Associated Cholesterol Abnormalities in a Clinical Outcomes Study of Dysferlin-Deficient Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy Type R2. [PDF]

J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle
ABSTRACT Background Limb–girdle muscular dystrophy (MD) type R2 (LGMDR2, formerly LGMD2B) is an autosomal recessive form of MD caused by variants in the dysferlin gene, DYSF. It leads to slow proximal and distal muscle weakening that generally results in loss of ambulation around early adulthood but without the lethal cardiorespiratory dysfunction ...

The accumulation of muscle RING finger-1 in regenerating myofibers: Implications for muscle repair in immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundMuscle RING finger-1 (MuRF-1) plays a key role in the degradation of skeletal muscle proteins. We hypothesize the involvement of MuRF-1 in immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM).MethodsMuscle biopsies from patients with IMNM (n = 37) were ...

The clinical, myopathological, and molecular characteristics of 26 Chinese patients with dysferlinopathy: a high proportion of misdiagnosis and novel variants

BMC Neurology, 2022
Background Dysferlinopathy is an autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy caused by pathogenic variants in the dysferlin (DYSF) gene. This disease shows heterogeneous clinical phenotypes and genetic characteristics.

A Regional Panorama of Dysferlinopathies [PDF]

Turkish Journal of Pathology, 2012
We describe the characteristic features of 11 patients (6 men and 5 women) with dysferlinopathies confirmed by muscle biopsies. In addition, we aimed to provide a realistic comprehensive picture of the severe muscle diseases in the Aegean Region of Turkey.We retrospectively reviewed 90 patients who underwent muscle biopsy examinations between 2008 and ...

Therapeutic exon ‘switching’ for dysferlinopathies? [PDF]

European Journal of Human Genetics, 2010
We read with interest but also some surprise, the recent ‘Therapeutic exon skipping for Dysferlinopathies?' article by Aartsma-Rus et al,1 published in the Eur J Hum Genet (advance online publication, 10 February 2010; doi:10.1038/ejhg.2010.4). This report contains some inaccuracies and mistakes, and we do not agree with some of its main contents ...
