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.

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B
Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) is a subtype of autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy characterized by an onset in late adolescence or early adulthood of slowly progressive, proximal weakness and atrophy ...

ABSTRACT Desmin, a crucial intermediate filament in muscle cells, maintains structural integrity in cardiac muscle and provides stability to striated muscle cells. Mutations in the DES gene lead to desminopathies, causing diverse cardiac and skeletal myopathies.

ABSTRACT Background Dnajb5, a member of the heat shock protein family, has not been previously reported to play a role in muscle differentiation. We identify Dnajb5 as a negative regulator of myogenesis via mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) signalling, functioning as a central controller of muscle growth and ...

Refining the genetics of muscular dystrophies with defective glycosylation of dystroglycan [PDF]
The aberrant glycosylation of α-dystroglycan is associated with a subset of clinically heterogeneous muscular dystrophies collectively referred to as dystroglycanopathies.

An autopsy study of a familial oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) with distal spread and neurogenic involvement [PDF]
An 81-year-old man from a family with a history of oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) involving 6 members over 4 generations is described. The patient first noted drooping of his eyelids at the age of 65.

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 ...
