ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims The patient experience of Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is not well understood, making it difficult to evaluate the conceptual relevance of proposed patient‐reported outcome (PRO) measures. This study aimed to conceptualize the patient experience of BMD and evaluate content validity and perceptions of meaningful changes of ...

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies
ABSTRACT Human muscular dystrophies are inherited muscle‐wasting diseases caused by the various kinds of gene mutations. Among them, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a representative type. Before the discovery of the causative dystrophin gene of DMD, the fragile myofiber plasma membrane was thought to be the trigger of myofiber necrosis in DMD ...

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Abstract Limb‐girdle muscle dystrophy Type R9 (LGMDR9), also known as LGMD Type 2I, is a rare genetic disease caused by partial loss of function of fukutin‐related protein (FKRP) enzyme which glycosylates alpha‐dystroglycan, thereby stabilizing myocytes during contraction.

Abstract Background Non‐ambulatory adults have an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures due to reduced weight‐bearing and diminished neuromuscular stimulation, resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality. Aims This scoping review aimed to systematically evaluate risk factors, diagnostic indicators and management strategies for optimising ...

Advances in diagnosis and treatment of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy
Limb - girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a group of disorders caused by gene mutations, with proximal muscle weakness as their main manifestation. Although various subtypes of LGMD share the common feature, heterogenity exist both in clinical phenotype

We applied quantitative MRI of the lower limb and automated home‐cage phenotyping to a mouse model of calpainopathy to detect early disease changes. At 15 months, calpain 3‐deficient mice showed increased water T2 values correlating with immune cell infiltration in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles, while assessment of motor activity revealed only ...
