Muscular Dystrophies and Myopathies Myopathies are diseases of the muscles. They can be caused by an inherited genetic abnormality (as in muscular dystrophy) or an abnormality of the immune system (such as polymyositis). These disorders can develop at any time from birth through adulthood. University of Chicago neurologists have expertise in treating many different muscle diseases. There are many types of muscular dystrophy (MD). These diseases are classified according to the muscle groups involved and the age of onset. Some of these muscular dystrophies result in premature death; others may allow the person to live for decades with varying degrees of disability. Symptoms Muscular dystrophy is characterized by muscle weakness in various parts of the body, depending on the type of MD or myopathy. Muscle weakness progresses (worsens) over time. Initial symptoms usually develop gradually. Diagnosis Diagnosis is based on a comprehensive physical examination and sophisticated diagnostic tests. The effectiveness of therapy depends upon accurate diagnosis of the precise type of MD, so physicians here may use advanced diagnostic techniques such as genetic analysis and biopsy of muscle or nerve tissue to pinpoint the type of neuromuscular disease or myopathy. The state-of-the-art neurophysiology lab at the University of Chicago Hospitals provides a full array of diagnostic tests including electrodiagnostic studies. Treatment Adult patients receive care in a multidisciplinary clinic which is sponsored by the

Inheritance and the muscular dystrophies This document provides a brief summary of the genetics of the muscular dystrophies. An understanding of their inheritance patterns makes it possible for families to know what the risk is of the dystrophy happening again. If, after reading this, you feel that any member of your family may be an unrecognised carrier of muscular dystrophy, or may have the condition themselves, do get expert advice from a genetic centre. New genetic tests can help trace, within families, those members with the abnormal gene for many muscular dystrophies. How are the muscular dystrophies inherited?
The way in which our bodies grow and work is controlled by structures called genes. Genes are parts of chromosomes which are strands of biochemical material transmitted from every cell to its offspring. We have two genes for every hereditary characteristic and function, one inherited from each parent. Sometimes a gene is faulty in part of its structure with the result that a certain bodily process is impaired and this fault may then be passed on to the children.
There are three main types of inheritance, and when a gene is faulty the fault is inherited in one of these ways with differing results.

New 4/00 Facts About Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophies (DMD and BMD)
Muscular Dystrophy Association
Introduction
What are Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophies?
Does it Run in the Family?
What Can Be Done to Treat DMD or BMD? ... MDA is Here to Help You WHAT ARE DUCHENNE AND BECKER MUSCULAR DYSTROPHIES?
  • What Causes Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophies?
  • What Happens to the Voluntary Muscles of Someone with DMD or BMD?
  • What Tests are Used to Diagnose DMD and BMD?
    In the early stages, Duchenne and Becker MD affect the pectoral muscles (which draw back the shoulders), the trunk, and the upper and lower legs. These weaknesses lead to difficulty in rising, climbing stairs and maintaining balance. Muscular dystrophies are genetic disorders characterized by progressive muscle wasting and weakness that begin with microscopic changes in the muscle. As muscles degenerate over time, the person's muscle strength declines. Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) was first described by the French neurologist Guillaume Benjamin Amand Duchenne in the 1860s. Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is named after the German doctor Peter Emil Becker, who first described this variant of DMD in the 1950s.

    DUCHENNE AND BECKER
    What Are Muscular Dystrophies?
    The muscular dystrophies are a group of muscle diseases which have three features in common: they are hereditary; they are progressive; and each causes a characteristic, selective pattern of weakness.
    This fact sheet deals only with the Duchenne type muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker type muscular dystrophy (BMD).
    Please contact the Muscular Dystrophy Association for information about other types of muscular dystrophy and related neuromuscular disorders.
    Why are DMD and BMD discussed together? DMD and BMD cause similar patterns of weakness and disability and are inherited in the same way. Weakness and disability are more severe in DMD and in BMD. Becker dystrophy is like a less severe form of Duchenne dystrophy.
    Recently it was shown that DMD and BMD are due to defects of the same gene. The normal function of the gene is to enable muscle fibres to make a particular chemical substance, a protein called dystrophin. Muscle fibres in people affected with DMD are extremely deficient in dystrophin, in BMD the deficiency is less severe.

    OF LATTER ONSET
    What is Muscular Dystrophy?
    Muscular Dystrophy is a general designation of a group of chronic, hereditary disease characterised by the progressive degeneration and weakness of voluntary muscles.
    At What Age Do Signs Of Dystrophy Appear? Contrary to the wide spread notion that muscular dystrophy is exclusively a childhood disorder, clinical onset may occur at any point in the life span. The different types of the disease vary in the age which muscle wasting becomes manifest and in the muscle groups first affected.
    This pamphlet deals mainly with those muscular dystrophies of latter onset - Limb Girdle MD - Congenital MD - Opthalmoplegic MD - Distal MD.
    Refer to additional links for information on FacioScapuloHumeral (FSH) MD - Myotonic MD or complete list of 40 NMDs
    The Muscular Dystrophy Association produces a separate pamphlet on the early onset diseases namely Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophy Does The Rate Of Progression Vary? Degeneration of muscle in muscular dystrophy is a continuing process, with considerable variation in its rate and severity among the different forms of the disease. As a rule, it can be said that the earlier the clinical signs appear, the more rapid the progression and the more widespread and disabling the deterioration.

    Mike Neufeldt Dear Friends: W hen I was about a year old, my parents noticed something odd about the way I walked. After many tests it was determined that I had a neuromuscular disease. It took us several years to get a definite diagnosis of Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy If you've recently found out you have a rare form of muscular dystrophy, you understand what my family went through. The rarity of Emery-Dreifuss, congenital, distal and oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophies makes it very important that you get all the information you can about your disorder. This pamphlet will help you get started. Learning that you or your child has a rare form of MD can be frightening and confusing. My parents wondered why I had this disease; we had no history of it in our family. But, as this pamphlet explains, each type of MD is caused by an extremely uncommon genetic defect that people often don't even know they have. You can be sure your disorder wasn't caused by anything you or your parents did, and you didn't catch it from anyone. My family had to make many adjustments because of MD. But we were lucky. Along with great, caring doctors, we had the Muscular Dystrophy Association to help us. From MDA, my folks got the support and information they needed, as well as help with equipment and other services. I was honored to serve as MDA's National Goodwill Ambassador in 1987-88.

    Laboratory for Gene Therapy of Muscular Dystrophies
    GenZentrum
    Muscular dystrophies like Duchenne's muscular dystophy (DMD) are amongst the most common hereditary diseases and lead to severe disability and early death. Alternative treatments are not available. Therefore, a successful treatment modality such as somatic gene therapy would constitute substantial clinical and economical benefit. We are confident that we will be able to develop viral vectors and treatment modalities for DMD which will allow to replace a sufficient amount of functionally adequate dystrophin and to significantly improve the clinical phenotype. Furthermore, the results of this project are expected to pave the way for designing efficient gene therapy protocols for other genetic diseases of skeletal muscles, as well as other organs. We will address key scientific and practical issues that must be resolved before human trials of gene therapy for hereditary muscular dystrophies such as DMD can be contemplated. A network of collaborations has been established:
  • The Friedrich-Baur-Institut (director: Prof. Dr. D. Pongratz) is one of the most important centers for the diagnosis and treatment of neuromuscular diseases in Germany. More than 500 muscle biopsies per year are processed. At least 25% of these biopsies are taken from patients with muscular dystrophies.

    Researchers Identify Defect that Causes Rare Muscular Dystrophies
    "This work demonstrates that dystroglycan has two roles in the brain: a developmental role and a synaptic role," said HHMI investigator Kevin Campbell. Subtle defects in the processing of a single protein that provides structural integrity to muscle cells can lead to several devastating forms of muscular dystrophy, according to studies by Howard Hughes Medical Institute researchers and their colleagues at the University of Iowa. The scientists reported in two papers published in the July 25, 2002, issue of the journal Nature that defects in enzymes responsible for the processing of the structural protein dystroglycan are the underlying cause of several rare forms of muscular dystrophy that affect muscles and cause additional developmental brain abnormalities including mental retardation. The new findings will immediately help doctors in providing accurate diagnosis and appropriate genetic counseling to patients and their families. In the longer term, knowing the underlying cause of the muscular dystrophies will help researchers tailor their interventions, according to Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator

    The Muscular Dystrophies
    Edited by ALAN E. H. EMERY, Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital, Exeter UK

    The muscular dystrophies are an important group of inherited disorders. They are characterized by muscle wasting and weakness, but vary considerably in their clinical manifestations and severity. This text reviews our understanding of the most important of these disorders. In many instances, the genes and protein products responsible for the dystrophies have been identified and it is now possible to establish a precise diagnosis, detect preclinical cases, identify carriers and offer prenatal dianostic testing. The book goes on to describe the opportunities for management of the symptoms through respiratory care, physiotherapy and surgical correction of contracture, and examines the potential, in the future, for effective treatment utilizing the new techniques of gene and cell therapy. Professor Emery has invited chapters from the leading international experts in the field providing a unique insight into the current situation and the hopes for the future.
