Generation of a laminopathies-specific iPSC line EHTJUi005-A-3 with homozygous knockout of the LMNA gene by CRISPR/Cas9 technology

Stem Cell Research, 2021
LAMIN A/C, encoded by the LMNA gene, supports the normal structure of the cell nucleus and regulates the connection between the nucleus and the cytoskeleton as a component of the nucleus envelope.

Autosomal dominant Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy caused by a mutation in the lamin A/C gene identified by exome sequencing: a case report

BMC Pediatrics, 2022
Background Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy (EDMD) is an uncommon genetic disease among the group of muscular dystrophies. EDMD is clinically heterogeneous and resembles other muscular dystrophies.

Proteomic profiling of Duchenne muscular dystrophy : protein patterns and candidate markers of disease [PDF]

, 2011
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene is a severe chronic muscle-wasting disease leading to early loss of ambulation in patients and to death by the third decade.

PCAF Involvement in Lamin A/C-HDAC2 Interplay during the Early Phase of Muscle Differentiation

Cells, 2020
Lamin A/C has been implicated in the epigenetic regulation of muscle gene expression through dynamic interaction with chromatin domains and epigenetic enzymes. We previously showed that lamin A/C interacts with histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2).

LMNA-related muscular dystrophy: Identification of variants in alternative genes and personalized clinical translation

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Background: Laminopathies are caused by rare alterations in LMNA, leading to a wide clinical spectrum. Though muscular dystrophy begins at early ages, disease progression is different in each patient. We investigated variability in laminopathy phenotypes

A novel SYNE1 gene mutation in a Chinese family of Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy-like

BMC Medical Genetics, 2017
Background In the present study, a novel mutation in exon 46 at codon 2304 (G2304R) of the SYNE1 gene is described in a Chinese family (proband, mother, and sister) with Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy-like, which clinically manifests as muscle ...

A multistage sequencing strategy pinpoints novel candidate alleles for Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy and supports gene misregulation as its pathomechanism

EBioMedicine, 2020
Background: As genome-wide approaches prove difficult with genetically heterogeneous orphan diseases, we developed a new approach to identify candidate genes.
