Muscular dystrophies

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2002
Muscular dystrophy includes many genetically distinct disorders. The list of causative genes for muscular dystrophy has been expanding rapidly, including those for congenital muscular dystrophies.We review the newly identified causative genes and suggested molecular mechanisms, focusing on glycosylation abnormality of alpha-dystroglycan, collagen VI ...

The muscular dystrophies

2012
The muscular dystrophies are a group of inherited disorders that are clinically and genetically distinct. Genetic counselling is an essential part of the management of these patients. Molecular genetic techniques, in particular positional cloning but also now candidate gene analysis, have allowed the beginning of an understanding of the molecular ...

Muscular Dystrophies

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2018
Muscular dystrophies represent a complex, varied, and important subset of neuromuscular disorders likely to require the care of a pulmonologist. The spectrum of conditions encapsulated by this subset ranges from severe and fatal congenital muscular dystrophies with onset in infancy to mild forms of limb and girdle weakness with onset in adulthood and ...

Muscular dystrophies

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2000
The muscular dystrophies (MD) are a heterogenous group of genetically determined, variably inherited primary disorders of muscle that progress differently. The various forms can be distinguished by the combination of clinical, genetic and pathologic criteria, confirmation of the muscle biopsy should be with immunohistochemical staining rather than ...

The Muscular Dystrophies

CONTINUUM: Lifelong Learning in Neurology, 2013
With transition to the genetic era, the number of muscular dystrophies has grown significantly, but so too has our understanding of their pathogenic underpinnings. Clinical features associated with each muscular dystrophy still guide us to the diagnosis. However, improved diagnostic abilities refine and expand phenotypic and genotypic correlates.
