A Myocyte‐Enriched Long Non‐Coding RNA NRMLncR Enhances Myogenesis in Mouse
We identified a novel myocyte‐enriched, Notch‐repressed myogenic lncRNA, NRMLncR, that is induced by myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs) during myogenic progression in mouse. NRMLncR localizes to cytoplasmic and nuclear compartments, associates with the RNA‐binding protein CUGBP Elav‐like family member 1 (CELF1), and is linked to neighboring gene Tbx1 ...

A trigger-happy soldier with bilateral ptosis and dysphagia
Muscular dystrophy encompasses a group of disorders characterized by the progressive weakness of the skeletal muscles. These disorders are mostly inherited and have characteristic age and muscle group predilection.

From Cytoskeletal Remodeling to Oocyte Quality: The Emerging Role of Mechanics
Mechanical properties of the oocyte are increasingly recognized as critical determinants of meiotic success and developmental potential. How actomyosin remodeling controls oocyte mechanics, how these properties are altered in pathological conditions, and how they could serve as markers in reproductive medicine are examined.

The Chemical Regulatory Landscape of Biomolecular Condensates
Chemical regulation of biomolecular phase separation offers a unique opportunity to bridge molecular‐level chemistry with emergent cellular organization. Chemically informed strategies for controlling condensate condensates through chemically tractable parameters such as interaction valency, solvent quality, and molecular crowding provides a unifying ...

We applied quantitative MRI of the lower limb and automated home‐cage phenotyping to a mouse model of calpainopathy to detect early disease changes. At 15 months, calpain 3‐deficient mice showed increased water T2 values correlating with immune cell infiltration in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles, while assessment of motor activity revealed only ...

Two Cases of Endometrial Cancer in Twin Sisters with Myotonic Dystrophy
We describe two cases of endometrial cancer (EC) occurring in nulligravid twin sisters with myotonic dystrophy. Both tested negative for Lynch syndrome and both were treated with laparoscopic hysterectomy with bilateral salpingooophorectomy and adjuvant ...

Aberrant Myokine Signaling in Congenital Myotonic Dystrophy
Summary: Myotonic dystrophy types 1 (DM1) and 2 (DM2) are dominantly inherited neuromuscular disorders caused by a toxic gain of function of expanded CUG and CCUG repeats, respectively.
