Novel therapeutic perspectives for sarcoglycanopathy by assisting protein folding
Sarcoglycanopathy, the collective name of four forms of Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD 2C-2F), is a rare genetic disorder affecting mainly the proximal musculature.

Sarcoglycanopathies, limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD), are rare genetic disorders caused by loss-of-function mutations of the membrane proteins sarcoglycans (SGs).

The novel use of the CFTR corrector C17 in muscular dystrophy: pharmacological profile and in vivo efficacy [PDF]
Sarcoglycanopathies are rare forms of severe muscular dystrophies currently without a therapy. Mutations in sarcoglycan (SG) genes cause the reduction or absence of the SG-complex, a tetramer located in the sarcolemma that plays a protective role during ...

LGMD2E patients risk developing dilated cardiomyopathy
Sarcoglycan gene mutations cause various limb-girdle muscular dystrophies. The sarcoglycans are expressed both in skeletal and cardiac muscle but, surprisingly, so far only a few sarcoglycanopathy patients have had documented cardiomyopathy.

Rescue of folding-defective alpha-sarcoglycan mutants by means of protein folding correctors
Sarcoglycans (SG) are glycosylated proteins (alpha-, beta-, delta- or gamma-SG) forming a key structural complex, essential for the sarcolemma integrity of striated muscles during contraction.

Sarcoglycanopathies, therapeutic approaches based on small molecules
Sarcoglycanopathies are rare autosomal recessive diseases affecting striated muscle, sharing a similar phenotype. The pathology is due to defects in four genes, SGCA, SGCB, SGCD and SGCG coding for α-, β-, δ- and γ-sarcoglycan (SG), respectively.
