Clinical and genetic spectrum of a Chinese cohort with SCN4A gene mutations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Skeletal muscle sodium channelopathies due to SCN4A gene mutations have a broad clinical spectrum. However, each phenotype has been reported in few cases of Chinese origin.

Kinetic Alterations in Resurgent Sodium Currents of Mutant Nav1.4 Channel in Two Patients Affected by Paramyotonia Congenita

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Paramyotonia congenita (PMC) is a rare skeletal muscle disorder characterized by muscle stiffness upon repetitive exercise and cold exposure. PMC was reported to be caused by dominant mutations in the SCN4A gene encoding the α subunit of the Nav1.4 ...

Non-dystrophic myotonia Chilean cohort with predominance of the SCN4A Gly1306Glu variant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Non-dystrophic myotonias are a group of rare neuromuscular diseases linked to SCN4A or CLCN1 . Among the subtypes, myotonia permanens, associated with the Gly1306Glu variant of SCN4A , is a relatively less frequent but more severe form.

Possible role of SCN4A skeletal muscle mutation in apnoea during seizure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
SCN4A gene mutations cause a number of neuromuscular phenotypes including myotonia. A subset of infants with myotonia‐causing mutations experience severe life‐threatening episodic laryngospasm with apnea.

Skeletal Muscle Modulates Huntington’s Disease Pathogenesis in Mice: Role of Physical Exercise

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Neuroscience, 2018
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a monogenic fatal neurodegenerative disorder. However, there is increasing evidence that HD is a pleiotropic systemic disorder.

Changes in Resurgent Sodium Current Contribute to the Hyperexcitability of Muscles in Patients with Paramyotonia Congenita

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Paramyotonia congenita (PMC) is a rare hereditary skeletal muscle disorder. The major symptom, muscle stiffness, is frequently induced by cold exposure and repetitive exercise. Mutations in human SCN4A gene, which encodes the α-subunit of Nav1.4 channel,

SCN4A variants and Brugada syndrome: Phenotypic and genotypic overlap between cardiac and skeletal muscle sodium channelopathies

open access: yes, 2016
SCN5A mutations involving the α-subunit of the cardiac voltage-gated muscle sodium channel (NaV1.5) result in different cardiac channelopathies with an autosomal-dominant inheritance such as Brugada syndrome.

Вродена миотония, обусловена от мутация в SCN4A гена

open access: yesБългарска неврология, 2021
Натриево-каналната вродена миотония е автозомно-доминантно заболяване обусловено от мутации в SCN4A гена, кодиращ NaV1.4 α-субединицата на скелетния мускулен натриев канал, локализиран в хромозома 17q23.1-25.3.6.

Neonatal developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with movement disorder and arthrogryposis: A shared phenotype across brain‐expressed sodium channelopathies

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 7, Page 3629-3643, July 2026.
Abstract Objective Neonatal developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with movement disorder and arthrogryposis (NDEEMA) represents the most severe end of the gain‐of‐function (GOF) SCN1A disorder spectrum. Sporadic cases of congenital arthrogryposis have also been reported in individuals with SCN2A‐, SCN3A‐, and SCN8A‐related developmental and ...

Paramyotonia congenita in a Slovak population: Genetic and pedigree analysis of 3 families

open access: yesBiomedical Papers, 2019
Background: Paramyotonia congenita is a non-dystrophic myotonia, in which muscle relaxation is delayed after voluntary or evoked contraction. This condition cannot be distinguished on the basis of symptoms and signs alone.
