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

Cell-extrinsic defective lymphocyte development in Lmna(-/-) mice. [PDF]
Mutations in the LMNA gene, which encodes all A-type lamins, result in a variety of human diseases termed laminopathies. Lmna(-/-) mice appear normal at birth but become runted as early as 2 weeks of age and develop multiple tissue defects that mimic ...

Partial Lipodystrophy and LMNA p.R545H Variant [PDF]
Laminopathies are disorders caused by LMNA gene mutations, which selectively affect different tissues and organ systems, and present with heterogeneous clinical and pathological traits. The molecular mechanisms behind these clinical differences and tissue specificity have not been fully clarified.

LMNA-related dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]
A case of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) that is likely to be associated with LMNA mutation Arg190Pro in a heterozygote is described. The features of DCM in the patient were conduction disorders, cardiac arrhythmias, progressive heart failure and minor musculoskeletal disturbances.

Impact of functional studies on exome sequence variant interpretation in early-onset cardiac conduction system diseases [PDF]
Aims The genetic cause of cardiac conduction system disease (CCSD) has not been fully elucidated. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) can detect various genetic variants; however, the identification of pathogenic variants remains a challenge.

Membranous glomerulonephritis with an LMNA mutation [PDF]
We had encountered the case of membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) with dilated cardiomyopathy due to LMNA gene mutation. LMNA mutation was known as a cause of 'laminopathy' such as dilated cardiomyopathy, muscular dystrophy, neuropathy and so on. LMNA gene might be a candidate of genetic basis in cryptogenic MGN.

Phosphorylation of Lamin A/C at serine 22 modulates Nav1.5 function
Variants in the LMNA gene, which encodes for Lamin A/C, are associated with cardiac conduction disease (CCD). We previously reported that Lamin A/C variants p.R545H and p.A287Lfs*193, which were identified in CCD patients, decreased peak INa in HEK‐293 ...

Heterozygous LMNA mutation-carrying iPSC lines from three cardiac laminopathy patients
LMNA-related dilated cardiomyopathy (LMNA-DCM) is caused by pathogenic variants in the LMNA gene and is characterized by left ventricular chamber enlargement, reduced systolic function, and arrhythmia.

Viscoelastic behavior of cardiomyocytes carrying LMNA mutations [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Laminopathies are genetic diseases caused by mutations in the nuclear lamina. OBJECTIVE: Given the clinical impact of laminopathies, understanding mechanical properties of cells bearing lamin mutations will lead to advancement in the treatment of heart failure.
