Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy: Case report

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia (English Edition), 2012
Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 1 (EDMD1) is a familial disease with X-Linked recessive transmission, caused by a mutation in a nuclear envelope protein, emerin. Clinical manifestations usually occur in adolescence and include contractures, muscle atrophy and weakness, and cardiac conduction disturbances.

A muscular dystrophy associated with bi‐allelic LEMD2 variants: Expanding the genotype of nuclear envelopathies

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Proteomics‐guided exome re‐analysis identifies bi‐allelic variants in the nuclear envelope LEMD2 gene, expanding its phenotypic spectrum. Created in BioRender. Pauper, M. (2026) https://BioRender.com/xamvo92.

Generation of a lamin A/C knockout human induced pluripotent stem cell line (ZJULLi007-A) via CRISPR/Cas9

open access: yesStem Cell Research
Lamin A/C is a protein encoded by the LMNA gene and belongs to the nuclear lamina protein family. Mutations in the LMNA gene lead to several diseases: Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy, familial partial lipodystrophy, limb girdle muscular dystrophy ...

Loss of FHL1 induces an age-dependent skeletal muscle myopathy associated with myofibrillar and intermyofibrillar disorganization in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recent human genetic studies have provided evidences that sporadic or inherited missense mutations in four-and-a-half LIM domain protein 1 (FHL1), resulting in alterations in FHL1 protein expression, are associated with rare congenital myopathies ...

Farnesyltransferase Deficiency in Cardiomyocytes Initiates Senescence and Contributes to Cardiac Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

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

open access: yesPregnancy, 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

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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).

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

open access: yesJournal 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.
