Peripheral nerve involvement in fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy: a case report.

Journal of child neurology - 1 Jan 2013

Jang Dae-Hyun, Sung In Young, Ko Tae Sung

Abstract excerpt

Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy is characterized by generalized muscle weakness and disturbances in central nervous system migration. Although this disorder is caused by mutations in the fukutin gene, which encodes a protein associated with the hypoglycosylation of α-dystroglycan, the specific functions of fukutin protein are largely unknown. In addition to being found in muscle and brain, α-dystroglycan...
