  • Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy
    www.ChildLab.com 800-934-6575 LIMB-GIRDLE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY What is Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy? Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD) is a group of hereditary disorders that cause progressive muscle weakness and wasting of the shoulders and pelvis (hips). There are at least 13 different genes that cause LGMD, each associated with a different subtype. Depending on the subtype of LGMD, the age of onset is variable (childhood, adolescence, or early adulthood) and can affect other muscles of the body. Many persons with LGMD eventually need the assistance of a wheelchair, and currently there is no cure. How is LGMD inherited? LGMD can be inherited by autosomal dominant (AD) or autosomal recessive (AR) modes. The AR subtypes are much more common than the AD types. Of the AR subtypes, LGMD2A (calpain-3) is the most common (30% of cases). LGMD2B (dysferlin) accounts for 20% of cases and the sarcoglycans (LGMD2C-2F) as a group comprise 25%-30% of cases. The various subtypes represent the different protein deficiencies that can cause LGMD. What testing is available for LGMD? Diagnosis of the LGMD subtypes requires biochemical and genetic testing. This information is critical, given that management of the disease is tailored to each individual and each specific subtype. Establishing the specific LGMD subtype is also important for determining inheritance and recurrence risks for the family. The first step in diagnosis for muscular dystrophy is usually a muscle biopsy. Microscopic and protein analysis of the biopsy can often predict the type of muscular dystrophy by analyzing which protein(s) is absent. A muscle biopsy will allow for targeted analysis of the appropriate LGMD gene(s) and can rule out the diagnosis of the more common dystrophinopathies (Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies).

Egranov1, Zhen Xing1,2, Zhao Zhang3, Ke Liang1, Youqiong Ye3, Yinghong Pan4,5, Sujash S. Chatterjee4, Brandon Mistretta4, Tina K. Nguyen1, David H. Hawke6, Preethi H. Gunaratne4, Mien-Chie Hung7,8, Leng Han3,9, Liuqing Yang1,10,11* and Chunru Lin1,10* Abstract Background: Exercise training is well established as the most effective way to enhance muscle performance and muscle building. The composition of skeletal muscle fiber type affects systemic energy expenditures, and perturbations in metabolic homeostasis contribute to the onset of obesity and other metabolic dysfunctions. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to play critical roles in diverse cellular processes and diseases, including human cancers; however, the functional importance of lncRNAs in muscle performance, energy balance, and obesity remains elusive. We previously reported that the lncRNA H19 regulates the poly-ubiquitination and protein stability of dystrophin (DMD) in muscular dystrophy. Methods: Here, we identified mouse/human H19-interacting proteins using mouse/human skeletal muscle tissues and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Human induced pluripotent stem-derived skeletal muscle cells (iPSC-SkMC) from a healthy donor and Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD) patients were utilized to study DMD post-translational modifications and associated proteins. We identified a gain-of-function (GOF) mutant of H19 and characterized the effects on myoblast differentiation and fusion to myotubes using iPSCs.

These patients also develop cardiac manifestations. However, the association between these gene variants and cardiac abnormalities is understudied. To determine genetic modifiers and features of cardiac disease in NMD patients, we have reviewed electronic medical records of 651 patients referred to the Muscular Dystrophy Association Care Center at the University of Cincinnati and characterized the clinical phenotype of 14 patients correlating with their next-generation sequencing data. The data were retrieved from the electronic medical records of the 14 patients included in the current study and comprised neurologic and cardiac phenotype and genetic reports which included comparative genomic hybridization array and NGS. Novel associations were uncovered in the following eight patients diagnosed with Limb-girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Bethlem Myopathy, Necrotizing Myopathy, Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease, Peripheral Citation: Bazrafshan, S.; Kushlaf, H.; Kakroo, M.; Quinlan, J.; Becker, R.C.; Polyneuropathy, and Valosin-containing Protein-related Myopathy.

Most of the disease-causing defects are missense mutations leading to a folding defective protein, promptly removed by the cell’s quality control, even if possibly functional. Recently, we repurposed small molecules screened for cystic fibrosis as potential therapeutics in sarcoglycanopathy. Indeed, cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) correctors successfully recovered the defective sarcoglycan-complex in vitro. Our aim was to test the combined administration of some CFTR correctors with C17, the most effective on sarcoglycans identified so far, and evaluate the stability of the rescued sarcoglycan-complex. We treated differentiated myogenic cells from both sarcoglycanopathy and healthy donors, evaluating the global rescue and the sarcolemma localization of the mutated protein, by biotinylation assays and western blot analyses.
