Coincidence of Nemaline Myopathy and Agenesis of Corpus Callosum in a Newborn Infant: Case Report

Journal of Behçet Uz Children's Hospital, 2019
The diagnosis of the hypotonia at the neonatal period is difficult. In the neonatal period, the differential must include acute illnesses and systemic diseases such as sepsis, congestive heart failure and inborn errors of metabolism. Congenital disorders

Mitochondrial permeability transition in skeletal muscle phenocopies muscle alterations seen in cancer cachexia and other wasting conditions

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Skeletal muscle wasting conditions are characterized by muscle fibre atrophy, mitochondrial respiratory dysfunction, mitochondrial depletion and fragmentation of acetylcholine receptor (AChR) cluster at the neuromuscular junction.

Nemaline myopathies: a current view [PDF]

, 2019
Nemaline myopathies are a heterogenous group of congenital myopathies caused by de novo, dominantly or recessively inherited mutations in at least twelve genes. The genes encoding skeletal α-actin (ACTA1) and nebulin (NEB) are the commonest genetic cause.

Evaluating proteasome modulation as a therapeutic strategy in nemaline myopathy [PDF]

, 2017
Nemaline myopathy is a subtype of congenital myopathy that is clinically characterized by muscle weakness and early hypotonia of variable severity. Pathologically, nemaline myopathy is characterized by the presence of nemaline rods that stain purple in ...

An integration-free iPSC line (SDQLCHi017-A) derived from a patient with nemaline myopathy-2 disease carrying compound heterozygote mutations in NEB gene

Stem Cell Research, 2020
Nemaline myopathy-2 (NEM2) is an autosomal recessive skeletal muscle disorder caused by mutations in the nebulin (NEB) gene. We report the generation and characterization of a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line SDQLCHi017-A, derived from a 1-

De Novo 2.2 Mb 19q13.42–q13.43 Microdeletion Encompassing U2AF2: Support for a Haploinsufficiency Model

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 10, Page 2350-2356, October 2026.
ABSTRACT U2 small nuclear RNA auxiliary factor 2 (U2AF2) is an essential pre‐mRNA splicing factor involved in the early stages of pre‐mRNA splicing. To date, multiple individuals have been reported with predominantly heterozygous missense variants presenting intellectual disability, speech and motor delays, seizures, hypotonia, and thin or hypoplastic ...

Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line (NCHi023-A) from a 41-year-old male with nemaline myopathy carrying autosomal dominant ACTA1 c.809-10C>A mutation

Stem Cell Research
Nemaline myopathy is a rare genetic condition characterized by weakened muscles due to thread-like rods, called nemaline bodies, in muscle fibers. This condition varies in time of onset and severity.

68-year old man with progressive weakness and ventilator dependent respiratory failure: a case report of sporadic late onset nemaline myopathy

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background Neuromuscular pathologies must be considered when caring for patients with persistent or progressive respiratory failure. Pertinent disease states may involve skeletal muscles of respiration or associated neurologic structures including motor ...

Proteomic Signatures of Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss in the Mouse Cochlea

Cell Biology International, Volume 50, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Hearing loss affects over 1.5 billion people worldwide and has substantial social, educational, and economic consequences. Although genetic studies have identified numerous hearing‐loss‐associated genes, the molecular changes accompanying noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL) remain incompletely understood.

Genetic and Pharmacologic Inhibition of Myostatin Restores Muscle Mass in a Dynamin 2‐Related Centronuclear Myopathy Mouse Model

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (ADCNM), most commonly caused by mutations in the dynamin 2 (DNM2) gene, is a rare congenital myopathy characterized by progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. Myostatin, a key negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass, has shown therapeutic potential in several models of neuromuscular ...
