Commitment to Myogenic Differentiation Significantly Aggravates the RNA Phenotype in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1. [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropathol Appl Neurobiol
DM1 myoblasts show mild defects, but RNA toxicity intensifies upon differentiation, where broad gene‐expression changes and escalating MBNL1‐driven splicing defects disrupt muscle‐specific pathways, underscoring a key vulnerability at the transition from myogenic precursor cells to myofibres in patients. ABSTRACT Aims Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is

Targeting Expanded CUG and CTG Repeats as a Therapeutic Approach for Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1). [PDF]

open access: yesChemMedChem
DM1 is an RNA gain‐of‐function disease caused by CTG repeat expansion, producing toxic r(CUG)exp RNA that sequesters MBNL1 and impairs splicing. This review covers the field of CUG and CTG ligands identified or rationally designed as DM1 drug candidates, highlighting their molecular design, RNA‐ or DNA‐binding modes, in vitro affinities and ...

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 ...

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 ...
