Elevated TGF \u3b22 serum levels in Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy: Implications for myocyte and tenocyte differentiation and fibrogenic processes [PDF]

, 2018
Among rare diseases caused by mutations in LMNA gene, Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy type 2 and Limb-Girdle muscular Dystrophy 1B are characterized by muscle weakness and wasting, joint contractures, cardiomyopathy with conduction system disorders ...

Implementing a Tiered Genetic Testing Strategy for Muscular Dystrophies in Morocco: From Targeted Assays to Exome Sequencing

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Targeted routine testing combined with NGS approaches enabled effective genetic diagnosis of muscular dystrophies in Moroccan patients, with nearly half of cases resolved by first‐line testing and additional diagnoses obtained through targeted sequencing and whole‐exome sequencing.

LMNA-Cardiomyopathy in Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy

Архивъ внутренней медицины
Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy is a rare disease resulting from a genetic defect in nuclear envelope proteins, most commonly in emerin and lamin A/C.

Mechanical Stress Triggers Premature Senescence in Cardiac Fibroblasts

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 47, December 18, 2025.
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.

Novel LMNA Mutation in a Taiwanese Family with Autosomal Dominant Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2007
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

Novel Mutations in Titin Exon 363 With Different Phenotypes Including a Founder Mutation in Eastern Europe

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 32, Issue 11, November 2025.
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.

Myopathic lamin mutations impair nuclear stability in cells and tissue and disrupt nucleo-cytoskeletal coupling [PDF]

, 2017
Lamins are intermediate filament proteins that assemble into a meshwork underneath the inner nuclear membrane, the nuclear lamina. Mutations in the LMNA gene, encoding lamins A and C, cause a variety of diseases collectively called laminopathies.
