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.

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 ...

Elevated plasma levels of cardiac troponin-I predict left ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1:A multicentre cohort follow-up study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: High sensitivity plasma cardiac troponin-I (cTnI) is emerging as a strong predictor of cardiac events in a variety of settings. We have explored its utility in patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1).

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 ...
