Etiopathogenesis of Immune‐Mediated Necrotizing Myopathy: A Comprehensive Review of Recent Advances

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
This review systematically clarifies that the core of IMNM begins with specific autoantibodies, which in turn trigger complement activation, immune cell infiltration, and a storm of inflammatory factors. Together, these processes induce regulatory cell death and mitochondrial dysfunction, ultimately leading to muscle fiber necrosis. Genetic factors and

Cardiac and respiratory failure in limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2I.

open access: yes, 2004
Mutations in the gene encoding fukutin-related protein cause limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2I. In this multicenter retrospective analysis of 38 patients, 55.3% had cardiac abnormalities, of which 24% had developed cardiac failure.

Genotype–Phenotype Discordance in Cardiomyopathies: Pathophysiology, Clinical Expression, and Therapeutic Considerations

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cardiomyopathies encompass a spectrum of myocardial disorders often attributed to underlying genetic mutations. However, genotype–phenotype discordance where the genetic profile does not align with the expected clinical presentation poses significant diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic challenges.

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Limb-girdle muscular dystrophies in India: A review

open access: yesAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2017
Limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMDs) are common in India. Information on LGMDs has been gradually evolving in the recent years. This information is scattered in case series and case studies. The aim of this study is to collate available Indian information on LGMDs and put it in perspective.

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 ...

A case of paraplegia due to limb girdle muscular dystrophy with coexisting gitelman’s syndrome

open access: yesAsian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2016
Muscular dystrophies are a rare group of disorders affecting the skeletal muscles, which are progressive, hereditary and degenerative. A sudden worsening of the condition should raise the possibility of hypokalemia, followed by its evaluation and ...
