Myotonic dystrophy: RNA-mediated muscle disease.

Current opinion in neurology - 1 Oct 2007

Wheeler Thurman M, Thornton Charles A

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The aim of this review is to highlight recent progress in elucidating the disease mechanism in myotonic dystrophy type 1 and type 2. RECENT FINDINGS: Research on myotonic dystrophy has led to the recognition of a novel RNA-mediated disease process. In myotonic dystrophy it is the RNA rather than protein product of a disease gene that has deleterious effects on muscle cells. These unusual RNAs,...
