Social cognition in myotonic dystrophy type 1: Specific or secondary impairment? [PDF]
Aims The cognitive profile of Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 (DM1) has been described in recent decades. Moreover, DM1 patients show lowered social engagement and difficulties in social-cognitive functions.

Loss of muscleblind-like 1 results in cardiac pathology and persistence of embryonic splice isoforms. [PDF]
Cardiac dysfunction is a prominent cause of mortality in myotonic dystrophy I (DM1), a disease where expanded CUG repeats bind and disable the muscleblind-like family of splice regulators.

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Dissociation of echogenicity of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) and flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) on neuromuscular ultrasound has been reported to be a useful sign to differentiate inclusion body myositis (IBM) from more common disease mimics, but it is not clear that this finding is pathognomonic of IBM. Our study aimed to

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 ...

Treatment of sleep central apnea with non-invasive mechanical ventilation with 2 levels of positive pressure (bilevel) in a patient with myotonic dystrophy type 1 [PDF]
We are reporting a case of a 29 year-old female with diagnosis of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (Steinert’s disease) with excessive daytime sleepiness, muscle fatigue, snoring, frequent arousals, non-restorative sleep, and witnessed apneas.

HNRNPA1-induced spliceopathy in a transgenic mouse model of myotonic dystrophy
Significance Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a model for RNA-mediated disease in microsatellite expansion disorders. DM1 is caused by CTG expansions (CTGexp) and expression of CUGexp RNAs that sequester muscleblind-like (MBNL) proteins, while also ...
