A Poglut1 mutation causes a muscular dystrophy with reduced Notch signaling and satellite cell loss [PDF]

, 2016
Skeletal muscle regeneration by muscle satellite cells is a physiological mechanism activated upon muscle damage and regulated by Notch signaling. In a family with autosomal recessive limbgirdle muscular dystrophy, we identified a missense mutation in ...

Cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying muscular dystrophy [PDF]

, 2014
The muscular dystrophies are a group of heterogeneous genetic diseases characterized by progressive degeneration and weakness of skeletal muscle. Since the discovery of the first muscular dystrophy gene encoding dystrophin, a large number of genes have ...

P2X7 Receptor Antagonist Reduces Fibrosis and Inflammation in a Mouse Model of Alpha-Sarcoglycan Muscular Dystrophy

Pharmaceuticals, 2022
Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy R3, a rare genetic disorder affecting the limb proximal muscles, is caused by mutations in the α-sarcoglycan gene (Sgca) and aggravated by an immune-mediated damage, finely modulated by the extracellular (e)ATP ...

Lower Limb Radiology of Distal Myopathy due to the S60F Myotilin Mutation [PDF]

, 2009
Distal myopathies are a clinically and genetically heterogenous group of disorders in which the distal limb musculature is selectively or disproportionately affected.

δ-Sarcoglycan-deficient muscular dystrophy: from discovery to therapeutic approaches

Skeletal Muscle, 2011
Mutations in the δ-sarcoglycan gene cause limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2F (LGMD2F), an autosomal recessive disease that causes progressive weakness and wasting of the proximal limb muscles and often has cardiac involvement.

Disease-associated mutations within the yeast DNAJB6 homolog Sis1 slow conformer-specific substrate processing and can be corrected by the modulation of nucleotide exchange factors

Nature Communications, 2022
Here the authors describe mechanisms through which analogous LGMDD1 (Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy Type D1) mutations affect Sis1 (a yeast functional homolog of human DNAJB6) chaperone activity and poison the function of wild-type protein; potentially ...

Medium to long-term outcome of thoracoscapular arthrodesis with screw fixation for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Shoulder girdle muscle weakness is the most constant feature of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy and leads to scapular winging. Mechanical fixation of the scapula to the thoracic wall provides a stable fulcrum on which the deltoid ...
