Dysferlin at transverse tubules regulates Ca2+ homeostasis in skeletal muscle

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
The class of muscular dystrophies linked to the genetic ablation or mutation of dysferlin, including Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy 2B (LGMD2B) and Miyoshi Myopathy (MM), are late-onset degenerative diseases.

Arterial Stiffness and Markers of Atrial Myopathy. [PDF]

open access: yesAnn Noninvasive Electrocardiol
Arterial stiffness, measured as either c‐f PWV or Aix75, was associated with fewer PACs, whereas no association was found with P‐wave indices. The association between arterial stiffness and atrial myopathy is complex and merits further study. ABSTRACT Background Arterial stiffness, measured using carotid‐femoral pulse wave velocity (c‐f PWV) and heart ...

Recurrent, non-traumatic, non-exertional rhabdomyolysis after immunologic stimuli in a healthy adolescent female: a case report

open access: yesBMC Pediatrics, 2022
Background Dysferlinopathy refers to a heterogenous group of autosomal recessive disorders that affect a skeletal muscle protein called dysferlin. These mutations are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B, Miyoshi myopathy, asymptomatic ...

Identification of Novel Antisense-Mediated Exon Skipping Targets in DYSF for Therapeutic Treatment of Dysferlinopathy

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2018
Dysferlinopathy is a progressive myopathy caused by mutations in the dysferlin (DYSF) gene. Dysferlin protein plays a major role in plasma-membrane resealing.

Dysferlinopathy: A Case Report and Literature Update

open access: yesİstanbul Medical Journal, 2016
Dysferlinopathy is a rare autosomal recessive myopathy, resulting in the lack or absence of dysferlin production caused by mutations in the encoding gene.

Homologous recombination mediates functional recovery of dysferlin deficiency following AAV5 gene transfer. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The dysferlinopathies comprise a group of untreatable muscle disorders including limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B, Miyoshi myopathy, distal anterior compartment syndrome, and rigid spine syndrome.

A case of Miyoshi myopathy in clinical practice

open access: yesКлинический разбор в общей медицине
Miyoshi myopathy belongs to the group of dysferlinopathies, rare myopathies, and therefore remains undiagnosed for a long time and currently has no etiopathogenetic treatment.

Intensive Teenage Activity Is Associated With Greater Muscle Hyperintensity on T1W Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Adults With Dysferlinopathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Practice of sports during childhood or adolescence correlates with an earlier onset and more rapidly progressing phenotype in dysferlinopathies. To determine if this correlation relates to greater muscle pathology that persists into adulthood, we ...

Miyoshi myopathy: diagnosis of a familial case of dysferlinopathy

open access: yesNeuromuscular Diseases, 2016
Miyoshi myopathy (MM) is a rare distal form of limb-girdle muscular dystrophies characterized by weakness primarily affecting the calves in adolescence or young adulthood, with slow progression, the ascending pattern of involvement of muscle groups in an atrophic process, and with obvious clinical polymorphism at onset (3 allelic variants are described)

Analysis on clinical phenotype and gene mutation of three cases of dysferlinopathy in two families

open access: yesChinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2018
Objective To investigate clinical phenotype and gene mutation of dysferlinopathy. Methods The clinical manifestations, laboratory, imaging, neurophysiological examinations, myopathology and genetic test of 3 patients with dysferlinopathy in 2 Chinese ...
