ABSTRACT Background Autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (ADCNM), most commonly caused by mutations in the dynamin 2 (DNM2) gene, is a rare congenital myopathy characterized by progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. Myostatin, a key negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass, has shown therapeutic potential in several models of neuromuscular ...

Cardiac calcium handling in the mouse model of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy [PDF]
The dystrophinopathies are a group of disorders characterised by cellular absence of the membrane stabilising protein, dystrophin. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is the most severe disorder clinically. The deficiency of dystrophin, in the muscular dystrophy

ABSTRACT As cell and gene therapies (CGTs) advance through clinical trials into clinical practice, it becomes increasingly important for genetic counselors (GCs) to understand these therapeutics to discuss them with patients. Despite the apparent need for GCs to obtain CGT‐related education, little is known about the training GCs receive on CGT topics ...

Posttranslational Modifications of p62/SQSTM1 in Health and Disease
Schematic illustration of p62 as a posttranslational modifications (PTMs)‐programmed integrator in homeostasis, pathogenesis, and therapeutic targeting. (Left) Homeostasis: In physiological states, p62, through various PTMs such as phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and acetylation, coordinates essential cellular functions.

Introduction: Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a genetic X-linked recessive disorder. This condition is characterized by progressive loss of muscle tissue. Thus, it results in deterioration and inability to perform basic motor skills such as independent

ABSTRACT The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic and information‐rich network that integrates structural support with biochemical and mechanical signaling. Among its key regulatory components are the Small Leucine‐Rich Proteoglycans (SLRPs), a family of matrix molecules that coordinate extracellular architecture with cell signaling.

This scoping review aimed to understand the construct ‘involvement’ in daily life activities from the perspective of children and young people with childhood‐onset disabilities. We identified six conceptual ideas, including a continuum of inner dedication or investment in‐the‐moment, and five others reflecting how children and young people process ...

Kinetic and Mean‐Field Modeling of Muscular Dystrophies
ABSTRACT We present a new class of models for assessing the cell dynamics characterizing muscular dystrophies. The proposed approach comprises a system of integro‐differential equations for the statistical distributions, over a large patient cohort, of the densities of muscle fibers and immune cells implicated in muscle inflammation, degeneration, and ...
