Skeletal muscle repair in a mouse model of nemaline myopathy [PDF]
Nemaline myopathy (NM), the most common non-dystrophic congenital myopathy, is a variably severe neuromuscular disorder for which no effective treatment is available.

Histopathologic Progression and a Novel Mutation in a Child With Nemaline Myopathy
Nemaline myopathy is a clinically heterogeneous congenital myopathy caused by mutations in at least 6 genes related to thin filaments. Histologically, they show a characteristic if not homogeneous picture of nemaline rods, essential for the diagnosis ...

An atomic view of the NFIX–DNA complex reveals recognition of the TGGCA motif and links sequence‐specific binding to the transcriptional programs governing skeletal muscle development and disease. ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle is essential for voluntary movement and exhibits a remarkable capacity for regeneration following injury.

Clinical heterogeneity in Korean patients with nemaline myopathy [PDF]
PURPOSE: Nemaline myopathy (NM) is a clinical heterogeneous congenital myopathy characterized by the presence of subsarcolemmal or cytoplasmic rod-like structures that call nemaline bodies in the muscle fibers.

Abstract This chapter presents a 58-year-old woman with progressive weakness, dysphagia, and dyspnea, ultimately diagnosed with sporadic late-onset nemaline myopathy. She has a complex history that includes antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, pulmonary hypertension, monoclonal gammopathy, positive antinuclear antibody (ANA), and ...

The Diverse Neuromuscular Spectrum of VPS13A Disease
ABSTRACT Objective VPS13A disease (chorea‐acanthocytosis) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by biallelic variants in VPS13A, typically presenting with hyperkinetic movement disorders, while neuromuscular signs are often mild. The aim of the project was to investigate the frequency and severity of neuromuscular impairment in VPS13A disease ...

Congenital myopathies 1 – Nemaline
Ovine congenital progressive muscular dystrophy (OCPMD) was first described in Merino sheep flocks in Queensland and Western Australia (WA) in the 1960s and 70s.

Autosomal Dominant Missense DAG1 Variant Linked to Mild–Moderate LGMD R16
Limb‐girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMDs) are disorders with an important clinical heterogeneity, usually involving proximal limb muscles. One subtype, LGMD R16 (LGMD 2P), is an autosomal recessive condition caused by pathogenic variants in DAG1, with clinical presentations ranging from mild to extremely severe forms.

KLHL41 stabilizes skeletal muscle sarcomeres by nonproteolytic ubiquitination
Maintenance of muscle function requires assembly of contractile proteins into highly organized sarcomeres. Mutations in Kelch-like protein 41 (KLHL41) cause nemaline myopathy, a fatal muscle disorder associated with sarcomere disarray.
