Myonuclear alterations associated with exercise are independent of age in humans
Abstract figure legend Structural and mechanical properties of myonuclei in trained young and aged individuals. In skeletal muscle fibres from trained individuals, myonuclei are more spherical, have greater lamin A and are stiffer compared to untrained counterparts.

Emerin increase in regenerating muscle fibers
The fate of emerin during skeletal muscle regeneration was investigated in an animal model by means of crush injury. Immunofluorescence, immunoblotting and mRNA analysis demonstrated that emerin level is increased in regenerating rat muscle fibers with ...

Motor function evaluation in merosin-deficient congenital muscular dystrophy children [PDF]
Congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD) is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by early onset of hypotonia and weakness. Almost 50% of the cases are caused by primary deficiency of a protein named merosin (MD), and present a homogenous phenotype

Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common hereditary condition affecting approximately 1 in 500 adults. It is characterized by marked clinical heterogeneity with individuals experiencing minimal to no symptoms, while others may have more severe outcomes including heart failure and sudden cardiac death.

The SUV39 Family of H3K9 Methyltransferases in Skeletal Muscle Stem Cells
The SUV39 family members are well known for methylating the Lysine 9 of the histone H3 (H3K9) in order to compact the chromatin and contributing to gene repression. We describe their active role in proliferating and differentiating muscle stem cells, how they prevent from inflammation and fibrosis during muscle regeneration and the future avenues ...

Analysis of RNA-Seq datasets reveals enrichment of tissue-specific splice variants for nuclear envelope proteins [PDF]
Laminopathies yield tissue-specific pathologies, yet arise from mutation of ubiquitously-expressed genes. A little investigated hypothesis to explain this is that the mutated proteins or their partners have tissue-specific splice variants.

From Doubt to Diagnosis: Canadian Patient Perspectives on a Limb‐Girdle Muscular Dystrophy Diagnosis
ABSTRACT Introduction Limb‐girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMDs) encompass a rare and genetically diverse set of disorders, posing challenges in diagnosis due to the absence of distinct pathological features, leading to frequent misdiagnoses and inadequate symptom management.

Matrix Metalloproteinases and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases in Inflammation and Fibrosis of Skeletal Muscles [PDF]
In skeletal muscles, levels and activity of Matrix MetalloProteinases (MMPs) and Tissue Inhibitors of MetalloProteinases (TIMPs) have been involved in myoblast migration, fusion and various physiological and pathological remodeling situations including ...

The role of inner nuclear membrane protein emerin in myogenesis
Emerin function is critical for proper genome reorganization and temporal gene expression necessary for terminal myogenic differentiation. Emerin interacts with both HDAC3 and histone methyltransferases (HMTs) to organize chromatin at the inner nuclear membrane.
