Adult- Onset Centronuclear Myopathy.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Centronuclear myopathy (CNM) is a rare congenital myopathy that is characterized by centrally placed nuclei in the muscle fibers. Three forms of the disease are clinically recognized. The severe neonatal form, the childhood onset form, and an adult-onset form. We report a 50 year old male patient with centronuclear myopathy (CNM) in whom the disease manifested itself in the fifth decade of life without any family history of such illness.

Mice lacking microRNA 133a develop dynamin 2–dependent centronuclear myopathy.
MicroRNAs modulate cellular phenotypes by inhibiting expression of mRNA targets. In this study, we have shown that the muscle-specific microRNAs miR-133a-1 and miR-133a-2 are essential for multiple facets of skeletal muscle function and homeostasis in mice. Mice with genetic deletions of miR-133a-1 and miR-133a-2 developed adult-onset centronuclear myopathy in type II (fast-twitch) myofibers, a...

Centronuclear myopathy is a rare congenital myopathy. According to the period of onset of signs and symptoms and the degree of muscular involvement three clinical forms are distinguished: severe neonatal; childhood onset; and adult onset. We describe herein the muscle biopsy findings of ten patients with the childhood onset form of the disease including three cases with ultrastructural study. T...
متن کاملCase report of intrafamilial variability in autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy associated to a novel BIN1 stop mutation
Centronuclear myopathies (CNM) describe a group of rare muscle diseases typically presenting an abnormal positioning of nuclei in muscle fibers. To date, three genes are known to be associated to a classical CNM phenotype. The X-linked neonatal form (XLCNM) is due to mutations in MTM1 and involves a severe and generalized muscle weakness at birth. The autosomal dominant form results from DNM2 m...
متن کاملMyotonia in centronuclear myopathy.
Centronuclear myopathy, which is unusual because of clinical myotonia, is described in two sisters. The diagnosis was established in adult life, but the first symptoms were noticed in infancy. The outstanding points of the clinical picture were mild amyotrophy, paresis, and clinical myotonia.
متن کاملRYR1 causing distal myopathy
BACKGROUND Congenital myopathies due to ryanodine receptor (RYR1) mutations are increasingly identified and correlate with a wide range of phenotypes, most commonly that of malignant hyperthermia susceptibility and central cores on muscle biopsy with rare reports of distal muscle weakness, but in the setting of early onset global weakness. METHODS We report a case of a patient presenting with...
