Studies on muscular dystrophy associated genes [PDF]

, 2007
Muscular dystrophy is a collective group of genetic disorder that results in progressive wasting of skeletal muscle. Dysferlin, the gene responsible for Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) and Miyoshi Myopathy (MM) was found to be a member of

Genetic screening of an endemic mutation in the DYSF gene in an isolated, mountainous population in the Republic of Dagestan

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2023
Background Dysferlinopathy has a high prevalence in relatively isolated ethnic groups where consanguineous marriages are characteristic and/or the founder effect exists.

Construct Validity and Reliability of the OMNI Scale in Children and Adolescents With Neuromuscular Diseases

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Children and adolescents with neuromuscular diseases often demonstrate muscle weakness and mobility limitations, which may increase perceived exertion during functional tasks. The OMNI scale was developed to assess perceived exertion in pediatric populations; however, its measurement properties in neuromuscular conditions ...

The relative frequency of common neuromuscular diagnoses in a reference center

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
The diagnostic procedure in neuromuscular patients is complex. Knowledge of the relative frequency of neuromuscular diseases within the investigated population is important to allow the neurologist to perform the most appropriate diagnostic tests ...

TRIM32 controls timely cell cycle exit in muscular differentiation through downregulation of c‐Myc mRNA

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Trim32 regulates the transition from proliferation to differentiation in C2C12 cells after myogenic induction. We found that, at the onset of differentiation, Trim32 destabilizes c‐Myc mRNA, promotes cell cycle exit, and enables normal myotube formation.

Streamlining Diagnosis of Bardet–Biedl Syndrome: New Diagnostic Algorithm With Updated Criteria

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 10, Page 2181-2198, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Considerable advances have been made in our understanding of Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS), particularly in its core clinical features and molecular genetics, warranting an update to the existing diagnostic criteria framework. Using a rigorous, evidence‐based, and consensus‐driven process, a multidisciplinary group of international experts and ...

Quantitative Muscle MRI Fat Fraction as a Biomarker of Disease Severity in Mitochondrial Myopathies

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Quantitative muscle MRI is increasingly used to assess structural muscle damage in inherited myopathies, but its application in primary mitochondrial myopathies (PMM) has not been systematically evaluated in large cohorts. Because PMM are clinically and genetically heterogeneous, objective imaging biomarkers are needed to quantify ...

Glycogenin-1 deficiency mimicking limb-girdle muscular dystrophy

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2020
Glycogen storage disease type XV (GSD XV) is a recently described muscle glycogenosis due to glycogenin-1 (GYG1) deficiency characterized by the presence of polyglucosan bodies on muscle biopsy (Polyglucosan body myopathy-2, PGBM2). Here we describe a 44

Cracking the Code: Genotype–Phenotype Correlation Models in Sarcoglycanopathies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 9, Page 1851-1865, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Sarcoglycanopathies are among the most severe limb‐girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD), though milder presentations have been described. These diseases are primarily caused by missense variants, but the limited predictability of their effect on protein maturation, complex formation, and transport has hindered reliable genotype ...

Refining the genetics of muscular dystrophies with defective glycosylation of dystroglycan [PDF]

, 2010
The aberrant glycosylation of α-dystroglycan is associated with a subset of clinically heterogeneous muscular dystrophies collectively referred to as dystroglycanopathies.
