The SUV39 Family of H3K9 Methyltransferases in Skeletal Muscle Stem Cells
FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2025.The SUV39 family members are well known for methylating the Lysine 9 of the histone H3 (H3K9) in order to compact the chromatin and contributing to gene repression. We describe their active role in proliferating and differentiating muscle stem cells, how they prevent from inflammation and fibrosis during muscle regeneration and the future avenues ...

Transcriptomic gene signatures measure satellite cell activity in muscular dystrophies
iScienceSummary: The routine need for myonuclear turnover in skeletal muscle, together with more sporadic demands for hypertrophy and repair, are performed by resident muscle stem cells called satellite cells.

From Doubt to Diagnosis: Canadian Patient Perspectives on a Limb‐Girdle Muscular Dystrophy Diagnosis
Health Expectations, Volume 28, Issue 3, June 2025.ABSTRACT Introduction Limb‐girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMDs) encompass a rare and genetically diverse set of disorders, posing challenges in diagnosis due to the absence of distinct pathological features, leading to frequent misdiagnoses and inadequate symptom management.

Advanced microscopic and histochemical techniques: diagnostic tools in the molecular era of myology
European Journal of Histochemistry, 2009 Over the past two centuries, myology (i.e. the basic and clinical science of muscle and muscle disease) has passed through 3 stages of development: the classical period, the modern stage and the molecular era.

Turkish Journal of Anaesthesiology and ReanimationFacioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a muscular dystrophy that can affect individuals of all age groups. Its prevalence is reported to be 0.4-1 in 10,000 people. Because of the low occurrence of FSHD, anaesthetic management is primarily based

Muscle carbonic anhydrase III levels in normal and muscular dystrophia afflicted chickens [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: The levels and immunohistochemical localization of muscle carbonic anhydrase III (CA-III) in healthy chickens and in muscular dystrophia affected (DA) chickens show that the muscles of diseased animal undergo a progressive increase of enzyme ...

Management strategies in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy
Intractable & Rare Diseases Research, 2019 Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) also known as Landouzy-Dejerine disease, is an autosomal-dominant disorder of the skeletal muscles with the name according to the various muscle groups it affects: the face, shoulders and upper arms. It is the third most common genetic degenerative disorder of the skeletal muscles without specific patterns ...
