Risk stratification in laminopathies and Emery Dreifuss muscular dystrophy

open access: yesNeurology 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.

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 ...

Analysis of RNA-Seq datasets reveals enrichment of tissue-specific splice variants for nuclear envelope proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Laminopathies yield tissue-specific pathologies, yet arise from mutation of ubiquitously-expressed genes. A little investigated hypothesis to explain this is that the mutated proteins or their partners have tissue-specific splice variants.

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).

Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy presenting as a heart rhythm disorders in children

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2021
Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is an inherited muscle dystrophy often accompanied by cardiac abnormalities in the form of supraventricular arrhythmias, conduction defects, sinus node dysfunction.

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

open access: yesJournal 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

Ankrd2 in Mechanotransduction and Oxidative Stress Response in Skeletal Muscle: New Cues for the Pathogenesis of Muscular Laminopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Ankrd2 (ankyrin repeats containing domain 2) or Arpp (ankyrin repeat, PEST sequence, and proline-rich region) is a member of the muscle ankyrin repeat protein family. Ankrd2 is mostly expressed in skeletal muscle, where it plays an intriguing role in the

Microhomology-Mediated Nonhomologous End Joining Caused Rearrangement of EMD and FLNA in Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Background: Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is a rare disease characterized by early joint contractures, slowly progressive muscular dystrophy, and cardiac involvement, which includes arrhythmia, dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic ...

Managing childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a child with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy

open access: yesAsian Journal of Medical Sciences
Genetics is increasingly being integrated into clinical oncology practice. It is necessary for risk stratification of disease, for prognostication, for recognition of underlying predisposition, and for recognition of potential toxicity and predicting ...
