Functional impairment in patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 can be assessed by an ataxia rating scale (SARA) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is not characterised by ataxia per se; however, DM1 and ataxia patients show similar disturbances in movement coordination often experiencing walking and balance difficulties, although caused by different underlying ...

Myotonic Dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yesNeurologic Clinics, 2012
Myotonic dystrophy (dystrophia myotonica, DM) is one of the most common lethal monogenic disorders in populations of European descent. DM type 1 was first described over a century ago. More recently, a second form of the disease, DM type 2 was recognized, which results from repeat expansion in a different gene.

Complex patterns of male germline instability and somatic mosaicism in myotonic dystrophy type 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The genetic basis of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is the expansion of a CTG repeat in the 3' untranslated region of DM1PK . Once into the disease range, the repeat becomes highly unstable and is biased toward expansion in both somatic and germline ...

The UK myotonic dystrophy patient registry: facilitating and accelerating clinical research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is the most frequent muscular dystrophy worldwide with complex, multi-systemic, and progressively worsening symptoms. There is currently no treatment for this inherited disorder and research can be challenging due to the ...

Clinical care recommendations for cardiologists treating adults with myotonic dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Myotonic dystrophy is an inherited systemic disorder affecting skeletal muscle and the heart. Genetic testing for myotonic dystrophy is diagnostic and identifies those at risk for cardiac complications.

Medication adherence in patients with myotonic dystrophy and facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Myotonic dystrophy (DM) and facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are the two most common adult muscular dystrophies and have progressive and often disabling manifestations.

High-throughput analysis of the RNA-induced silencing complex in myotonic dystrophy type 1 patients identifies the dysregulation of miR-29c and its target ASB2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a multi-systemic disorder caused by abnormally expanded stretches of CTG DNA triplets in the DMPK gene, leading to mutated-transcript RNA-toxicity.

CRISPR/Cas9-induced (CTG⋅CAG)n repeat instability in the myotonic dystrophy type 1 locus: implications for therapeutic genome editing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is caused by (CTG⋅CAG)n-repeat expansion within the DMPK gene and thought to be mediated by a toxic RNA gain of function.
