CRISPR‐Mediated Expression of the Fetal Scn5a Isoform in Adult Mice Causes Conduction Defects and Arrhythmias

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background The sodium channel, Nav1.5, encoded by SCN5A, undergoes developmentally regulated splicing from inclusion of exon 6A in the fetal heart to exon 6B in adults.

On the importance of including both sexes in animal studies – insights from home‐cage monitoring

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2408-2426, October 2026.
ABSTRACT A review of behavioural studies using home‐cage monitoring (HCM) systems revealed that over 61% of studies used only male subjects, with only 24% including both sexes, despite evidence of substantial behavioural differences between male and female animals. This bias could influence the outcomes of biomedical research.

Anesthesia for a Patient with Myotonic Dystrophy

open access: yes, 2016
Myotonic dystrophy is the most common myotonic syndrome causing abnormalities of the skeletal and smooth muscles as well as problems related to the cardiac, gastrointestinal and endocrine systems. In affected people, reduced functional residual capacity,

Myotonic Dystrophy Initially Presenting as Tachycardiomyopathy Successful Catheter Ablation of Atrial Flutter

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2010
Myotonic dystrophy is a genetic muscular disease that is frequently associated with cardiac arrhythmias. Bradyarrhythmias, such as sinus bradycardia and atrioventricular block, are more common than tachyarrhythmias.

Frequency and Circumstances of Falls Events in People Living With Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy: A Cross‐Sectional Survey

open access: yesPhysiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is an adult‐onset X‐linked neuromuscular disorder associated with progressive weakness, sensory involvement and impaired mobility. Falls appear frequent in SBMA, but their real‐world frequency and circumstances have not been systematically described.

MBNL depletion drives stem cell fusion and immature myonuclear states in myotonic dystrophy type 1

open access: yesNature Communications
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 is caused by the expression of expanded CTG repeats in the DMPK gene and the resulting loss of function of MBNL protein. Affected skeletal muscle displays abundant centrally located nuclei despite limited immune-cell–associated ...

Responsiveness of outcome measures in myotonic dystrophy type 1

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020
Objective As myotonic dystrophy type 1(DM1) evolves slowly and interventional trials often have a short duration, responsive outcomes in DM1 are needed.

Correction of Clcn1 alternative splicing reverses muscle fiber type transition in mice with myotonic dystrophy

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
In a double homozygous mouse model of myotonic dystrophy type 1, Hu et al. use antisense oligonucleotide correction of myotonia to induce a therapeutic shift from an overabundance of oxidative muscle fibers to mechanically stronger glycolytic fibers.
