Recent advances in nemaline myopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The nemaline myopathies constitute a large proportion of the congenital or structural myopathies. Common to all patients is muscle weakness and the presence in the muscle biopsy of nemaline rods.

Incidence and Prevalence of Congenital Myopathies - A Population-Based Study From Western Sweden. [PDF]

open access: yesAnn Neurol
Objective Congenital myopathies are a group of rare genetic muscle disorders. Previous studies have estimated point prevalences which only include surviving individuals. Our aim was to perform an epidemiological study with strict inclusion criteria, using modern diagnostic technology to present both incidences and prevalences, and to describe the ...

The nonlinear bending-torsion theory for curved rods as Gamma-limit of three-dimensional elasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The problem of the rigorous derivation of one-dimensional models for nonlinearly elastic curved beams is studied in a variational setting. Considering different scalings of the three-dimensional energy and passing to the limit as the diameter of the beam

Proteomic profiling of sporadic late‐onset nemaline myopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2022
Objective To define the proteomic profile of sporadic late‐onset nemaline myopathy (SLONM) and explore its pathogenesis. Methods We performed mass spectrometry on laser‐dissected frozen muscle samples from five patients with SLONM, three of whom with an ...

Actin Polymerization Defects Induce Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Cellular Models of Nemaline Myopathies

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Nemaline myopathy (NM) is one of the most common forms of congenital myopathy and it is identified by the presence of “nemaline bodies” (rods) in muscle fibers by histopathological examination.

Severe ACTA1-related nemaline myopathy: intranuclear rods, cytoplasmic bodies, and enlarged perinuclear space as characteristic pathological features on muscle biopsies

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2022
Nemaline myopathy (NM) is a muscle disorder with broad clinical and genetic heterogeneity. The clinical presentation of affected individuals ranges from severe perinatal muscle weakness to milder childhood-onset forms, and the disease course and ...

Nemaline myopathy diagnosed in two young Border collies in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded muscle samples using conventional stains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Nemaline myopathy (NM) is a congenital neuromuscular disorder with heterogeneous clinical signs such as muscle weakness, affecting humans, seldom dogs and cats. For human NM, several causative gene mutations have been identified.

Phenotypes induced by NM causing α-skeletal muscle actin mutants in fibroblasts, Sol 8 myoblasts and myotubes

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2009
Background Nemaline myopathy is a neuromuscular disorder characterized by the presence of nemaline bodies in patient muscles. 20% of the cases are associated with α-skeletal muscle actin mutations. We previously showed that actin mutations can cause four

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background Sporadic late onset nemaline myopathy (SLONM) is a muscle disorder characterized by the presence of nemaline rods in muscle fibers.
