Myosin storage myopathy associated with a heterozygous missense mutation in MYH7
AbstractMyosin constitutes the major part of the thick filaments in the contractile apparatus of striated muscle. MYH7 encodes the slow/β‐cardiac myosin heavy chain (MyHC), which is the main MyHC isoform in slow, oxidative, type 1 muscle fibers of skeletal muscle. It is also the major MyHC isoform of cardiac ventricles.

A novel myopathy with autophagic vacuoles associated with biallelic variants in CLN8. [PDF]
We describe a novel adult‐onset myopathy with autophagic vacuoles and characteristic features of ceroid lipofuscinosis associated with biallelic CLN8 variants, seizures, and muscle weakness. Autophagosomal/lysosomal deposition of curvilinear, autofluorescent material containing the mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase membrane subunit c ...

Mutations in the beta-myosin rod cause myosin storage myopathy via multiple mechanisms. [PDF]
Myosin storage myopathy (MSM) is a congenital myopathy characterized by the presence of subsarcolemmal inclusions of myosin in the majority of type I muscle fibers, and has been linked to 4 mutations in the slow/cardiac muscle myosin, β-MyHC (MYH7). Although the majority of the >230 disease causing mutations in MYH7 are located in the globular head ...

Identifying regulatory muscle processes in infantile and adult Pompe patients using a multi‐omic and morphological approach [PDF]
The study highlights differences in the regulatory processes of skeletal muscle, such as sarcomeric contractility, lysosomal and autophagic function, metabolic activity and immune regulation, at transcriptomic and proteomic levels in infantile and adult Pompe disease.

The association of the Arg1277Gln mutation in the MYH7 gene with myosin storage myopathy in a Chinese family [PDF]
Abstract Background Myosin storage myopathy (MSM) is caused by missense mutations in the MYH7 gene, which encodes the β-cardiac/slow skeletal muscle myosin heavy chain rod (MyHCI). MSM is an autosomal dominant/recessive myopathy characterized by subsarcolemmal accumulations of myosin in type I muscle fibers that results in weakness of the ...

Mutations in the slow skeletal muscle fiber myosin heavy chain gene (MYH7) cause laing early-onset distal myopathy (MPD1) [PDF]
We previously linked Laing-type early-onset autosomal dominant distal myopathy (MPD1) to a 22-cM region of chromosome 14. One candidate gene in the region, MYH7, which is mutated in cardiomyopathy and myosin storage myopathy, codes for the myosin heavy ...

Mechanical cues, including ECM stiffness, stretch, compression, shear stress, and traction forces, remodel trafficking across the secretory pathway, from the ER and Golgi to endolysosomal compartments and the plasma membrane. The resulting secretome reshapes ECM composition and tissue mechanics, establishing feedback loops that support homeostasis or ...
