Diagnosis of Cardiac Abnormalities in Muscular Dystrophies
Muscular disorders are mainly characterized by progressive skeletal muscle weakness. There are several aspects that can be monitored, which are used to differentiate between the types of muscular disorders, ranging from the targeted muscle up to the ...

Pharmacotherapeutic Approaches to Treatment of Muscular Dystrophies [PDF]
Muscular dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of genetic muscle-wasting disorders that are subdivided based on the region of the body impacted by muscle weakness as well as the functional activity of the underlying genetic mutations. A common feature of

The association between oxidative balance score and muscular dystrophies [PDF]
IntroductionThis research utilized data from the NHANES 2011–2018 study to investigate the connection between the Oxidative Balance Score (OBS) and muscular dystrophies.MethodsThis study is a cross-sectional, observational, secondary analysis utilizing ...

Muscular dystrophies are primary diseases of muscle due to mutations in more than 40 genes, which result in dystrophic changes on muscle biopsy. Now that most of the genes responsible for these conditions have been identified, it is possible to accurately diagnose them and implement subtype-specific anticipatory care, as complications such as cardiac ...

Role of Immunoglobulins in Muscular Dystrophies and Inflammatory Myopathies
Muscular dystrophies and inflammatory myopathies are heterogeneous muscular disorders characterized by progressive muscle weakness and mass loss. Despite the high variability of etiology, inflammation and involvement of both innate and adaptive immune ...

Misregulation of the Ubiquitin–Proteasome System and Autophagy in Muscular Dystrophies Associated with the Dystrophin–Glycoprotein Complex [PDF]
The stability of the sarcolemma is severely impaired in a series of genetic neuromuscular diseases defined as muscular dystrophies. These are characterized by the centralization of skeletal muscle syncytial nuclei, the replacement of muscle fibers with ...

Transcriptomic gene signatures measure satellite cell activity in muscular dystrophies [PDF]
Summary: The routine need for myonuclear turnover in skeletal muscle, together with more sporadic demands for hypertrophy and repair, are performed by resident muscle stem cells called satellite cells.
