Muscle hypertrophy in myotonia congenita [PDF]
A 28 year old male presented to our neurology service with stiffness of a few years’ duration in all muscles. The stiffness was maximum at the onset of exercise and his muscles loosened up after some time. He had no difficulty in releasing his grip after holding an object. He had very well developed muscles in spite …

Myo‐Guide: A Machine Learning‐Based Web Application for Neuromuscular Disease Diagnosis With MRI
ABSTRACT Background Neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) are rare disorders characterized by progressive muscle fibre loss, leading to replacement by fibrotic and fatty tissue, muscle weakness and disability. Early diagnosis is critical for therapeutic decisions, care planning and genetic counselling.

In vivo assessment of muscle membrane properties in myotonic dystrophy [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Myotonia in myotonic dystrophy types 1 (DM1) and 2 (DM2) is generally attributed to reduced chloride channel conductance. We used muscle velocity recovery cycles (MVRCs) to investigate muscle membrane properties in DM1 and DM2, with ...

MYL1‐Related Congenital Myopathy: Clinical, Genetic and Pathological Insights
This study describes two individuals with severe congenital myopathy caused by novel biallelic MYL1 variants. Detailed muscle analyses revealed selective type II fibre hypotrophy, aberrant myofibrillogenesis, and signs of autophagic impairment. The findings expand the clinical and pathological spectrum of MYL1‐related myopathy and suggest a broader ...

Inactivation defects caused by myotonia-associated mutations in the sodium channel III-IV linker. [PDF]
Missense mutations in the skeletal muscle Na+ channel alpha subunit occur in several heritable forms of myotonia and periodic paralysis. Distinct phenotypes arise from mutations at two sites within the III-IV cytoplasmic loop: myotonia without weakness ...

Modulation of the slow/common gating of CLC channels by intracellular cadmium. [PDF]
Members of the CLC family of Cl(-) channels and transporters are homodimeric integral membrane proteins. Two gating mechanisms control the opening and closing of Cl(-) channels in this family: fast gating, which regulates opening and closing of the ...

Novel SCN4A Variants Associated With Myalgic Myotonic Disorder or Paramyotonia
ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to determine the role of five new rare SCN4A variants suspected to cause paramyotonia or myotonic disorder. Methods Ten patients from seven families underwent clinical, neurophysiological, imaging, and muscle biopsy examinations.
