Rare DMD Gene Duplication in a Lebanese Child With Duchene Muscular Dystrophy
ABSTRACT A five‐year‐old boy with clinical features of Duchenne muscular dystrophy was found to have a rare de novo DMD exon 2–9 duplication. Reporting such atypical duplications improves genotype–phenotype interpretation and highlights the need for multidisciplinary care, particularly in resource‐limited settings.

Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential of DJ‐1 in Skeletal Muscle Homeostasis and Disease
DJ‐1 protein functions as a redox‐sensing guardian in skeletal muscle by coordinating antioxidant defense, mitochondrial homeostasis, metabolic adaptation, and anti‐atrophy signaling. Enhancing its function holds promise as a potential therapeutic strategy for muscle atrophy, ALS, and metabolic myopathies.

Skeletal Muscle Mass Modifies the Prognostic Impact of LDL Cholesterol in Chronic Heart Failure
ABSTRACT Background Dyslipidaemia is among the major risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Paradoxically, higher cholesterol levels are associated with better survival in heart failure (HF) of any aetiology. Because cholesterol is an integral component of skeletal muscle structure, one possible explanation involves the interplay ...

ABSTRACT Background Low muscle oxidative capacity is an extrapulmonary manifestation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with unclear aetiology. We sought to characterize locomotor muscle oxidative capacity in never smokers and ever smokers with and without COPD and determine clinical and behavioural features associated with low muscle ...
