Genetic and Structural Variations in Czech Patients With Congenital Myopathies

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 108, Issue 6, Page 678-683, December 2025.
We present 79 unrelated patients with genetically confirmed congenital myopathy (CM). A total of 113 mutant alleles carrying 97 different variants with a presumed pathogenic effect were identified. All but five variants were small scale. The mode of inheritance was autosomal dominant (AD) (44.3%), autosomal recessive (AR) (43.0%), and X‐linked (XL) (12.

Counting the Cost: The Hidden Financial Realities of Neuromuscular Disease Through Patient and Family Perspectives

open access: yesHealth Expectations, Volume 28, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) impose multifaceted challenges on individuals and their families, often resulting in significant medical and non‐medical expenses. While cost‐of‐illness (COI) studies provide valuable quantitative data, few explore the lived experience of financial strain.

The Expanding Clinical and Genetic Spectrum of Muscle Glycogen Storage Disease 0, (GSD0B)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 197, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Glycogen storage disorders are a group of genetic disorders affecting glucose homeostasis in the body. Muscular glycogen stores are essential for liberating glucose for energy supply during bursts of activity and sustained muscle work. Muscle glycogen storage disease 0 (GSD0B) is associated with biallelic variants in GYS1 causing muscular ...

Temporal Bayesian classifiers for modelling muscular dystrophy expression data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The analysis of microarray data from time-series experiments requires specialised algorithms, which take the temporal ordering of the data into account. In this paper we explore a new architecture of Bayesian classifier that can be used to understand how

Generation of a lamin A/C knockout human induced pluripotent stem cell line (ZJULLi007-A) via CRISPR/Cas9

open access: yesStem Cell Research
Lamin A/C is a protein encoded by the LMNA gene and belongs to the nuclear lamina protein family. Mutations in the LMNA gene lead to several diseases: Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy, familial partial lipodystrophy, limb girdle muscular dystrophy ...

Life-long course and molecular characterization of the original Dutch family with epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy due to a homozygous novel plectin point mutation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Plectin is one of the largest and most versatile cytolinker proteins known. Cloned and sequenced in 1991, it was later shown to have nonsense mutations in recessive epidermolysis bullosa with muscular dystrophy.
