Epigenetics in LMNA-Related Cardiomyopathy
Mutations in the gene for lamin A/C (LMNA) cause a diverse range of diseases known as laminopathies. LMNA-related cardiomyopathy is a common inherited heart disease and is highly penetrant with a poor prognosis. In the past years, numerous investigations

Cardiomyocyte Proliferative Capacity Is Restricted in Mice With Lmna Mutation [PDF]
LMNA is one of the leading causative genes of genetically inherited dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Unlike most DCM-causative genes, which encode sarcomeric or sarcomere-related proteins, LMNA encodes nuclear envelope proteins, lamin A and C, and does not ...

ObjectiveMutations in the Lamin A/C(LMNA) gene are commonly associated with cardiac manifestations, such as dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and conduction system disease. However, the overall spectrum and penetrance of rare LMNA variants are unknown.

Creatine and l-carnitine attenuate muscular laminopathy in the LMNA mutation transgenic zebrafish
Lamin A/C gene (LMNA) mutations contribute to severe striated muscle laminopathies, affecting cardiac and skeletal muscles, with limited treatment options.

Background: Laminopathies are caused by rare alterations in LMNA, leading to a wide clinical spectrum. Though muscular dystrophy begins at early ages, disease progression is different in each patient. We investigated variability in laminopathy phenotypes

Dupuytren’s and Ledderhose Diseases in a Family with LMNA-Related Cardiomyopathy and a Novel Variant in the ASTE1 Gene [PDF]
Dupuytren’s disease (palmar fibromatosis) involves nodules in fascia of the hand that leads to flexion contractures. Ledderhose disease (plantar fibromatosis) is similar with nodules of the foot.

Perinuclear organelle trauma at the nexus of cardiomyopathy pathogenesis arising from loss of function LMNA mutation [PDF]
Over the past 25 years, nuclear envelope (NE) perturbations have been reported in various experimental models with mutations in the LMNA gene. Although the hypothesis that NE perturbations from LMNA mutations are a fundamental feature of striated muscle ...

Clinical Spectrum of LMNA-Associated Type 2 Familial Partial Lipodystrophy: A Systematic Review
Type 2 familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD2) is a laminopathic lipodystrophy due to pathogenic variants in the LMNA gene. Its rarity implies that it is not well-known.
