Collagen expression in fibroblasts with a novel LMNA mutation [PDF]
Laminopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by LMNA mutations; they include muscular dystrophies, lipodystrophies, and progeroid syndromes. We identified a novel heterozygous LMNA mutation, L59R, in a patient with the general appearance of mandibuloacral dysplasia and progeroid features.

Activation of PDGF pathway links LMNA mutation to dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Lamin A/C (LMNA) is one of the most frequently mutated genes associated with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). DCM related to mutations in LMNA is a common inherited cardiomyopathy that is associated with systolic dysfunction and cardiac arrhythmias. Here we

Mutations in LMNA, the gene that encodes lamin A and C, causes LMNA-related dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) or cardiolaminopathy. LMNA is expressed in endothelial cells (ECs); however, little is known about the EC-specific phenotype of LMNA-related DCM.

Altered chromosomal positioning, compaction, and gene expression with a lamin A/C gene mutation. [PDF]
Lamins A and C, encoded by the LMNA gene, are filamentous proteins that form the core scaffold of the nuclear lamina. Dominant LMNA gene mutations cause multiple human diseases including cardiac and skeletal myopathies.

Reactivation of autophagy amelioratesLMNAcardiomyopathy [PDF]
Mutations in the LMNA gene, which encodes lamin A and C (lamin A/C), cause a diverse spectrum of tissue-selective diseases termed laminopathies. The most prevalent form affects striated muscles as dilated cardiomyopathy with variable skeletal muscle involvement, which includes autosomal Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy.

Lmna−/−; Tg mice show improved conduction parameters compared to Lmna−/− mice by ECG analysis.
(A) Box-and-whiskers plot of pooled Lmna+/+ PR intervals (N = 5) compared with single animal PR intervals for each of the following genetic backgrounds at 5-7 weeks of age: Lmna+/+; Tg, Lmna−/− and Lmna−/−; Tg.

The response to cardiac resynchronization therapy in
Aims Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) therapy is fundamental to the management of LMNA cardiomyopathy due to the high frequency of atrioventricular block and ventricular tachyarrhythmias. We aimed to define the role of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in impacting heart failure in LMNA ...

Laminopathies are a family of monogenic multi-system diseases resulting from mutations in the LMNA gene which include a wide range of neuromuscular disorders. Although lamins are expressed in most types of differentiated cells, LMNA mutations selectively
