Genetic analysis of limb girdle muscular dystrophy and Miyoshi myopathy [PDF]

, 2003
The autosomal recessive muscular dystrophies encompass limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) and Miyoshi myopathy (MM), which can show clinical and genetic overlap.

Nuclear Entanglement: New Insights Into the Role of Cytoskeleton and Nucleoskeleton in Plant Nuclear Function

Cytoskeleton, Volume 83, Issue 6, Page 354-375, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

Understanding Barriers to Participate in Specialized Neuromuscular Rehabilitation Experienced by People With Neuromuscular Diseases

Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice, Volume 32, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale There are many types of neuromuscular diseases characterized by considerable variation in disease progression and functional abilities depending on the specific diagnosis, leading to an increased need for specialized rehabilitation across the lifespan.

Risk stratification in laminopathies and Emery Dreifuss muscular dystrophy

Neurology International, 2018
Laminopathies are genetic disorders due to gene mutation encoding for proteins of the nuclear envelope. Patients are at risk of conduction defect, arrhythmia, sudden death and heart failure.

Emerin deficiency does not exacerbate cardiomyopathy in a murine model of Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy caused by an LMNA gene mutation

Journal of Physiological Sciences, 2023
Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD), caused by mutations in genes encoding nuclear envelope proteins, is clinically characterized by muscular dystrophy, early joint contracture, and life-threatening cardiac abnormalities.

Characterization of cardiac involvement in children with LMNA-related muscular dystrophy

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Introduction: LMNA-related muscular dystrophy is a rare entity that produce “laminopathies” such as Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD), limb–girdle muscular dystrophy type 1B (LGMD1B), and LMNA-related congenital muscular dystrophy (L-CMD).

Farnesyltransferase Deficiency in Cardiomyocytes Initiates Senescence and Contributes to Cardiac Fibrosis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
Lipid overload suppresses SREBF2‐mediated FNTB expression, leading to defective Lamin A maturation and nuclear envelope instability. This nuclear catastrophe triggers a pro‐fibrotic senescence program in cardiomyocytes. Notably, restoring nuclear integrity via AAV9‐based gene therapy effectively attenuates cardiac remodeling, identifying the ...

Genotype–Phenotype Discordance in Cardiomyopathies: Pathophysiology, Clinical Expression, and Therapeutic Considerations

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cardiomyopathies encompass a spectrum of myocardial disorders often attributed to underlying genetic mutations. However, genotype–phenotype discordance where the genetic profile does not align with the expected clinical presentation poses significant diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic challenges.

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Novel LMNA Mutation in a Taiwanese Family with Autosomal Dominant Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2007
Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is characterized by early-onset contractures, slowly progressive weakness, and muscle wasting in humeroperoneal muscles, and adult-onset cardiomyopathy with conduction block. We analyzed blood samples from an EDMD
