Chronological and Spatial Distribution of Skeletal Muscle Fat Replacement in FHL1‐Related Myopathies
ABSTRACT Objectives Variants in the FHL1 gene cause FHL1‐related myopathies (FHL1‐RMs), a group of neuromuscular disorders with diverse clinical presentations. This study aimed to comprehensively characterize the spatial and temporal patterns of skeletal muscle fat replacement throughout the whole body in FHL1‐RMs, to examine disease progression over ...

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

Mechanical Stress Triggers Premature Senescence in Cardiac Fibroblasts
Cellular senescence contributes to disease burden in cardiovascular disease (CVD) and aging, highlighting the need to understand its induction. In primary cardiac fibroblasts, reduced strain and increased frequency, mimicking CVD, elicit a distinct senescent phenotype compared to oxidative stress.

In six patients from five families, we identified two novel exon 363 pathogenic variants causing recessive titinopathies. Patients with a recurrent Eastern European founder variant presented with juvenile distal titinopathy, while a Belgian family showed an early‐onset titinopathy with contractures.

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 ...

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,

Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy
Clinical characteristics Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is characterized by the clinical triad of: joint contractures that begin in early childhood; slowly progressive muscle weakness and wasting initially in a humero-peroneal distribution that later extends to the scapular and pelvic girdle muscles; and cardiac involvement that may manifest ...
