Sarcoglycanopathies are a group of recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophies, characterized by progressive muscle weakness. Sarcoglycan deficiency produces instability of the sarcolemma during muscle contraction, leading to continuous muscle fiber ...

The P2X7 purinoceptor in pathogenesis and treatment of dystrophino- and sarcoglycanopathies [PDF]
Dystrophinopathy and sarcoglycanopathies are incurable diseases caused by mutations in the genes encoding dystrophin or members of the dystrophin associated protein complex (DAPC). Restoration of the missing dystrophin or sarcoglycans via genetic approaches is complicated by the downsides of personalised medicines and immune responses against re ...

Limb-girdle muscular dystrophies in India: A review
Limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMDs) are common in India. Information on LGMDs has been gradually evolving in the recent years. This information is scattered in case series and case studies.

Different outcome of sarcoglycan missense mutation between human and mouse. [PDF]
Sarcoglycanopathies are rare autosomic limb girdle muscular dystrophies caused by mutations in one of the genes coding for sarcoglycan (α, β, δ, and γ-sarcoglycans).

Preliminary pharmacological study on C17 CFTR corrector related to sarcoglycanopathies
reservedSarcoglycanopathies are rare autosomal recessive pathologies, a subtype of the Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophies (LGMDs), a subfamily of a large group called muscular dystrophy (MD). The sarcoglycanopathies are caused by mutations in sarcoglycans,

Dysferlinopathy: Spectrum of pathological changes in skeletal muscle tissue
Background: Dysferlinopathy is an autosomal recessive-limb girdle muscular dystrophy (AR-LGMD) caused due to the defect in gene encoding dysferlin, a sarcolemmal protein.

Clinical and Genomic Evaluation of 207 Genetic Myopathies in the Indian Subcontinent
Objective: Inherited myopathies comprise more than 200 different individually rare disease-subtypes, but when combined together they have a high prevalence of 1 in 6,000 individuals across the world.
