CRPPA exon 6–9 deletion as a founder mutation in Chinese patients with dystroglycanopathy

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Analysis of sixteen Chinese dystroglycanopathy patients reveals a founder mutation (CRPPA exon 6–9 deletion) in 25% of cases and expands the phenotypic spectrum from severe muscle‐eye‐brain disease to limb‐girdle muscular dystrophy. ABSTRACT Importance Dystroglycanopathies (DGPs) are a group of muscular dystrophies with abnormal glycosylation of ...

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Height, weight, and body mass index trajectories and their correlation with functional outcome assessments in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
The analysis of height, weight, and BMI z‐score trajectories in boys with DMD from the FOR‐DMD study showed that higher baseline height was associated with slower subsequent growth, and older age with greater weight gain after glucocorticoid initiation.
