ORPHA:98909CID-10 · G71.8CID-11 · 8C76OMIM 601419DOENÇA RARA

É uma doença genética rara que afeta os músculos usados para movimentar o corpo. Ela é caracterizada por grupos anormais de desmina (uma proteína do músculo) e de outras proteínas que dão estrutura às células, além de um material com aspecto de grânulos e filamentos. Essas características só podem ser vistas com microscópios muito potentes em amostras de músculo (biópsias musculares). Os sintomas, as alterações nos músculos, a idade em que a doença começa e a velocidade com que ela avança também são variáveis. Os pacientes desenvolvem fraqueza muscular nos dois lados do corpo, que geralmente começa nos músculos mais distantes das pernas (como pés e panturrilhas) e se espalha para cima, podendo afetar o tronco, os músculos do pescoço e os do rosto. É comum que o coração também seja afetado (cardiomiopatia), com problemas como bloqueios na condução elétrica, batimentos irregulares (arritmias), falha crônica no bombeamento de sangue (insuficiência cardíaca) e, ocasionalmente, batimentos cardíacos muito rápidos (taquiarritmia). Com o tempo, a fraqueza leva à necessidade de usar cadeira de rodas. A dificuldade para respirar (insuficiência respiratória) pode ser uma causa importante de incapacidade e óbito. Ela começa com uma respiração muito rápida durante a noite, acompanhada de queda nos níveis de oxigênio no sangue, e pode progredir para dificuldade respiratória grave também durante o dia.

DESDesminDisease-causing germline mutation(s) inTolerante
FUNÇÃO

Muscle-specific type III intermediate filament essential for proper muscular structure and function. Plays a crucial role in maintaining the structure of sarcomeres, inter-connecting the Z-disks and forming the myofibrils, linking them not only to the sarcolemmal cytoskeleton, but also to the nucleus and mitochondria, thus providing strength for the muscle fiber during activity (PubMed:25358400). In adult striated muscle they form a fibrous network connecting myofibrils to each other and to the

Novel muscle MRI features in Desmin related myasthenic myopathy.

Neuromuscular disorders : NMD2026 Jan

Primary desminopathies often present as myofibrillar myopathy with predominant dominant inheritance. There are only few reports of recessive desminopathies. Distinct muscle MRI features with predominant involvement of gluteus maximus, semitendinosus, sartorius, gracilis and peroneal muscles have been described in dominant desminopathies. We report five patients with recessive desminopathies carrying novel homozygous DES variants (c.1023+5G>A and c.958delG). All presented with features of congenital myasthenic syndrome since early childhood. Novel MRI features with fatty infiltration of gluteus medius/ minimus, adductor magnus, quadriceps femoris and hamstrings were noted. Gracilis and short head of biceps femoris were consistently spared. In the leg, in addition to peroneal muscle involvement, there was severe fatty atrophy of anterior leg muscles. There was also myoedema posterior leg compartment. Thus, this study expands the imaging features of desminopathies with myasthenic syndrome.

Epidermolysis Bullosa Related to the KLHL24 Gene: A Rare Pediatric Manifestation of Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy.

JACC. Case reports2026 Jan 14

Epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) is a rare inherited skin disorder. Mutations in the KLHL24 gene have been reported in a unique EBS subtype that is associated with dilated cardiomyopathy and sudden cardiac death, usually in early adulthood. We describe 2 pediatric patients affected by EBS-KLHL24 who developed arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathies. Electrocardiogram and exercise stress test documented polymorphic ectopic beats. Cardiac magnetic resonance showed diffuse biventricular late gadolinium enhancement. Both patients required medical treatment, and one of the patients received an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator for primary prevention owing to nonsustained ventricular tachycardia. The emerging picture is that KLHL24 mutation causes a desminopathy characterized by a cardiocutaneous syndrome, with onset in pediatric age, in which cardiomyopathy and arrhythmias are dominant. Given the potential early onset and the rapid progression of EBS-KHLH24 cardiomyopathy, with the high risk of life-threatening arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, routine cardiac screening at an early age is recommended.

Natural History and Phenotypic Spectrum of Myofibrillar Myopathies and Myopathies Associated With MFM-Related Genes.

Neurology2025 Nov 25

Myofibrillar myopathy (MFM) is a pathologically defined but genetically heterogeneous myopathy; however, myofibrillar pathology may be absent in some patients with pathogenic variants in MFM-related genes. The natural history of MFM and myopathies associated with MFM-related genes remains poorly characterized. We retrospectively reviewed patients evaluated at Mayo Clinic (January 1993-March 2024) with either pathologically confirmed MFM or myopathies associated with MFM-related genes. Patients without genetic testing or skeletal muscular manifestations were excluded. Eighty patients were identified; 56 were genetically characterized (23 with DES, 10 with MYOT, 9 with LDB3, 2 with FLNC, 2 with BAG3, 2 with CRYAB, 1 with FHL1, and 7 others). Myofibrillar pathology was observed in 60 of 65 biopsied patients. The median age at symptom onset was 42.3 years (interquartile range [IQR] 20.2-57.0); 66 presented with muscular onset and 14 with cardiac onset. With a median disease duration of 13.1 years (IQR 8.1-24.0) from symptom onset to last visit, all patients had weakness, commonly distal-predominant (n = 34), followed by proximal-predominant (n = 24) and diffuse (n = 11) weakness. Dysphagia occurred in 16 patients, with 4 requiring feeding tubes. Peripheral neuropathy was found in 21 patients (13 with axonal large fiber neuropathy and 8 with small fiber neuropathy), mostly mild in severity. Gait aids were required in 46 patients (median 10.0 years after onset), and 17 became wheelchair-bound (median 19.0 years after onset). By age 60, 67% and 31% of patients with desminopathy required gait aids and were wheelchair-bound, respectively, compared with 12% and 0% of those with myotilinopathy and 25% and 0% of those with LDB3-related myopathy. Cardiac involvement (n = 31) and respiratory involvement (n = 33) were frequent, manifesting at a median of 7 and 9 years, respectively, after myopathy onset. Seven patients (2 with DES, 1 with ACTA1, 4 genetically uncharacterized) died, mainly due to cardiopulmonary complications. Patients with desminopathy exhibited earlier and higher rates of cardiac involvement (p < 0.001), more frequent respiratory involvement (p = 0.029), earlier gait aid dependence (p = 0.018) despite a similar age at ambulation loss (p = 0.418), lower prevalence of peripheral neuropathy (p = 0.022), and a similar mortality rate (p = 1.000). MFM and myopathies associated with MFM-related genes are clinically heterogeneous, with desminopathy showing earlier cardiac manifestations and gait aid requirement and more frequent cardiopulmonary involvement. Given the phenotypic variability, genetic diagnosis is crucial for patient management and prognosis.

Demographic, clinical, and genetic characteristics of patients with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophies (LGMD): A single tertiary-center experience.

European journal of paediatric neurology : EJPN : official journal of the European Paediatric Neurology Society2025 Sep

Given that pathogenic variants related to limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD) are rarely found in Turkish populations, we aim to characterize pathogenic genetic variants of LGMD associated with age of disease onset, family characteristics, final clinical status, and muscle biopsy findings. We retrospectively evaluated adult patients with LGMD whose diagnoses were confirmed by genetic and/or muscle biopsy and who were being followed up in the Muscle Diseases Center of Izmir Tepecik Training and Research Hospital. We tested for LGMD genes on the DNA sample obtained from peripheral blood using the next-generation sequencing method on the MiSeq Platform (Illimunia, USA). A minor allele frequency of <0.01 in the GnomAD or ExAC database was used to filter for significant variants. Sanger sequencing was then conducted to validate the findings. Function prediction by SIFT, PolyPhen-2, and PROVEAN or CADD was carried out in missense pathogenic genes. A total of 13 LGMD subtypes were identified in 69 patients. Twenty-eight of the patients were male, and 41 were female. The mean age at disease onset was 14.98 years (minimum 1 year, maximum 30 years). Consanguinity was found in 51 (71.6 %) of the 69 patients. Our study included 23 patients with type R1 (calpainopathy), 16 with type R2 (dysferlinopathy), eight with type R3 (alpha sarcoglycanopathy), two with type R4 (beta sarcoglycanopathy), seven with type R5 (gamma sarcoglycanopathy), five with type R7 (telethoninopathy), one with type R8 (TRIM32), one with type R9 (dystroglycanopathy), one with type R10 (titinopathy), one with type R11 (POMT1), two with type R12 (anoctamin 5), one with type R14 (POMT2), and one with formerly type R18 (desminopathy). The importance of genetic diagnosis for LGMD is increasing, especially because treatment methods are being developed in this field that hold promise for truly treating the disease. This study adds to the emerging pattern of LGMD epidemiology demonstrating that the proportion of LGMD explained by known pathogenic genes is higher than that previously reported.
