VCP-related myopathy: a case series and a review of literature
We describe phenotypic and genetic findings of five patients with four different mutations in VCP gene (NM_007126): c.278G > A (p.R93H), c.463C > T (p.R155C), c.410C > T (p.P137L), c.464G > A (p.R155H), c.410C > T (p.P137L). We analysed the patient' biopsies, all characterized by a muscular phenotype, and we executed immunofluorescence staining to evaluate the presence of proteins: p62, VCP, desmin, myotilin, TDP-43. Eventually we performed a brief literature review to compare our cases with those already reported. Our report strongly suggest that VCP gene mutations can be related with a predominant skeletal...

Congenital myopathy associated with a novel mutation in < em > MEGF10 < /em > gene, myofibrillar alteration and progressive course
In conclusion, we found a new likely pathogenic mutation in MEGF10, which is responsible for a progressive form of mvEMARDD with myofibrillar alterations at muscle biopsy. Interestingly, the presence of MEGF10 mutations has not been reported in Italian population. Early diagnosis of MEGF10 myopathy is essential in light of recent results from in vivo testing demonstrating a potential therapeutic effect of SSRIs compounds.PMID:36349186 | PMC:PMC9628799 | DOI:10.36185/2532-1900-076
