24 May 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to examine whether the regional methylation levels at the most distal D4Z4 repeat units (RU) in the 4qA-permissive haplotype were associated with disease severity and progression in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy type 1 (FSHD1).
