FSHD myotubes with different phenotypes exhibit distinct proteomes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a progressive muscle disorder linked to a contraction of the D4Z4 repeat array in the 4q35 subtelomeric region.

Respiratory pattern in a FSHD pediatric population [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine, 2016
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder characterized by selective weakness of face and upper arms and girdle. Respiratory involvement in FSHD has been described mainly in the most severely affected patients.

miRNA expression in control and FSHD fetal human muscle biopsies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
BACKGROUND:Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is an autosomal-dominant disorder and is one of the most common forms of muscular dystrophy. We have recently shown that some hallmarks of FSHD are already expressed in fetal FSHD biopsies, thus ...

A simplified approach for FSHD molecular testing [PDF]

open access: yesClinica Chimica Acta, 2014
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is characterized by complex genetics linked to DNA rearrangements in a polymorphic genomic region of tandemly repeated D4Z4 segments. A panel of FSHD biomarkers including contracted D4Z4 array repeat combined with the 4qA(159/161/168)PAS haplotype has been proposed as molecular signature for defining ...

Gene expression during normal and FSHD myogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2011
Background Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a dominant disease linked to contraction of an array of tandem 3.3-kb repeats (D4Z4) at 4q35. Within each repeat unit is a gene, DUX4, that can encode a protein containing two homeodomains.

Meeting report: the 2021 FSHD International Research Congress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is the second most common genetic myopathy, characterized by slowly progressing and highly heterogeneous muscle wasting with a typical onset in the late teens/early adulthood [1]. Although the etiology of the

Post-Translational Modifications of the DUX4 Protein Impact Toxic Function in FSHD Cell Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Objective: Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is caused by abnormal de-repression of the myotoxic transcription factor DUX4. Although the transcriptional targets of DUX4 are known, the regulation of DUX4 protein and the molecular consequences ...

Interplay between mitochondrial reactive oxygen species, oxidative stress and hypoxic adaptation in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy: Metabolic stress as potential therapeutic target

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2022
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is characterised by descending skeletal muscle weakness and wasting. FSHD is caused by mis-expression of the transcription factor DUX4, which is linked to oxidative stress, a condition especially detrimental ...

Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy transcriptome signatures correlate with different stages of disease and are marked by different MRI biomarkers

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
With several therapeutic strategies for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) entering clinical testing, outcome measures are becoming increasingly important.
