1. Muscle diseases with damaged sarcomeres - causes and consequences
Sammanfattning : Muscle diseases, also called myopathies, are usually defined as diseases where the pathology is confined to the muscle itself. This excludes diseases caused by structural abnormalities in the peripheral nerve, from the anterior horn cell to the neuromuscular junction. LÄS MER
2. Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Congenital Myopathy-related Weakness
Sammanfattning : Congenital myopathies are a rare and heterogeneous group of diseases. They are primarily characterised by skeletal muscle weakness and disease-specific pathological features. They harshly limit ordinary life and in severe cases, these myopathies are associated with early death of the affected individuals. LÄS MER
3. Neuromuscular disorders in childhood. Epidemiology and characterization of a new myopathy
Sammanfattning : Neuromuscular disorders can be subdivided into anterior horn cell disorders, neuropathies, myasthenic disorders and myopathies. Some multisystem disorders, such as myotonic dystrophy and mitochondrial encephalomyopathies, are traditionally also included. LÄS MER
4. Cellular studies of neuromuscular disorders related to the sarcomeric proteins
Sammanfattning : Sarcomere is the basic unit of cardiac and skeletal muscle contraction and its proper function requires an invariant organization of this structure. Mutations in sarcomeric proteins are known to cause increasing number of different cardiac and skeletal muscle diseases. LÄS MER

Sammanfattning : Arthrogryposis Causes, Consequences and Clinical Course in Amyoplasia and Distal Arthrogryposis Background. Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita, AMC, is a heterogeneous condition defined as multiple congenital joint contractures in two or more body areas. The pathogenesis is impaired fetal movements. LÄS MER
