Escobar Syndrome Is A Prenatal Myasthenia Caused By Disruption Of The Acetylcholine Receptor Fetal Gamma Subunit
(Univ Chicago Press, 2006)
Escobar syndrome is a form of arthrogryposis multiplex congenita and features joint contractures, pterygia, and respiratory distress. Similar findings occur in newborns exposed to nicotinergic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) ...
Identification Of A Founder Mutation In Tpm3 In Nemaline Myopathy Patients Of Turkish Origin
(Nature Publishing Group, 2008)
To date, six genes are known to cause nemaline (rod) myopathy (NM), a rare congenital neuromuscular disorder. In an attempt to find a seventh gene, we performed linkage and subsequent sequence analyses in 12 Turkish families ...
Speg Interacts With Myotubularin, And Its Deficiency Causes Centronuclear Myopathy With Dilated Cardiomyopathy
(Cell Press, 2014)
Centronuclear myopathies (CNMs) are characterized by muscle weakness and increased numbers of central nuclei within myofibers. X-linked myotubular myopathy, the most common severe form of CNM, is caused by mutations in ...
Variants In The Oxidoreductase Pyroxd1 Cause Early-Onset Myopathy With Internalized Nuclei And Myofibrillar Disorganization
(Cell Press, 2016)
This study establishes PYROXD1 variants as a cause of early-onset myopathy and uses biospecimens and cell lines, yeast, and zebrafish models to elucidate the fundamental role of PYROXD1 in skeletal muscle. Exome sequencing ...
Mutation In Exon 1F Of Plec, Leading To Disruption Of Plectin Isoform 1F, Causes Autosomal-Recessive Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy
(Cell Press, 2010)
Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a genetically heterogeneous group of inherited muscular disorders manifesting symmetric, proximal, and slowly progressive muscle weakness. Using Affymetrix 250K SNP Array genotyping ...
A Congenital Muscular Dystrophy with Mitochondrial Structural Abnormalities Caused By Defective De Novo Phosphatidylcholine Biosynthesis
(Cell Press, 2011)
Congenital muscular dystrophy is a heterogeneous group of inherited muscle diseases characterized clinically by muscle weakness and hypotonia in early infancy. A number of genes harboring causative mutations have been ...
Recessive Ttn Truncating Mutations Define Novel Forms of Core Myopathy with Heart Disease
(Oxford Univ Press, 2014)
Core myopathies (CM), the main non-dystrophic myopathies in childhood, remain genetically unexplained in many cases. Heart disease is not considered part of the typical CM spectrum. No congenital heart defect has been ...
Mutations In Klhl40 Are A Frequent Cause Of Severe Autosomal-Recessive Nemaline Myopathy
(Cell Press, 2013)
Nemaline myopathy (NEM) is a common congenital myopathy. At the very severe end of the NEM clinical spectrum are genetically unresolved cases of autosomal-recessive fetal akinesia sequence. We studied a multinational cohort ...
