Characterization of cardiac involvement in children with LMNA-related muscular dystrophy
Introduction: LMNA-related muscular dystrophy is a rare entity that produce “laminopathies” such as Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD), limb–girdle muscular dystrophy type 1B (LGMD1B), and LMNA-related congenital muscular dystrophy (L-CMD).

cTAGE5 regulates LBR trafficking between the ER and the nucleus membrane to maintain the integrity of both the ER and the nuclear envelope. cTAGE5 KO results in LBR retention in the ER, reduced stability, and subsequent disruption of nuclear envelope integrity. ABSTRACT cTAGE5/MEA6 plays a pivotal role in COPII complex assembly, ER‐to‐Golgi trafficking,

Novel LMNA Mutation in a Taiwanese Family with Autosomal Dominant Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy
Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is characterized by early-onset contractures, slowly progressive weakness, and muscle wasting in humeroperoneal muscles, and adult-onset cardiomyopathy with conduction block. We analyzed blood samples from an EDMD

Ankrd2 in Mechanotransduction and Oxidative Stress Response in Skeletal Muscle: New Cues for the Pathogenesis of Muscular Laminopathies [PDF]
Ankrd2 (ankyrin repeats containing domain 2) or Arpp (ankyrin repeat, PEST sequence, and proline-rich region) is a member of the muscle ankyrin repeat protein family. Ankrd2 is mostly expressed in skeletal muscle, where it plays an intriguing role in the

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Pain is a recognized symptom of muscular dystrophy (MD), but little is known about prescription pain medications in this population. We describe pain experiences and pain medications prescribed for individuals with selected MDs using population‐based surveillance data collected by the Muscular Dystrophy Surveillance, Tracking,

The ESR1 gene is relevant in breast cancer treatments in the pharmacogenetics context. However, Native, African, and mixed populations are known to be underrepresented in genomic studies. This is particularly important given that the difference in variants' frequencies among different populations can lead to population‐specific clinical implications ...

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.

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.
