2023-11-07
Abstract excerpt
Nemaline myopathy (NM) is one of the most common forms of congenital myopathy and it is identified by the presence of "nemaline bodies" (rods) in muscle fibers by histopathological exam-ination. The most common forms of NM are caused by mutations in the ACTA1 (Actin Alpha 1) and NEB (Nebulin) genes. Clinical features include hypotonia and muscle weakness. Unfortunate-ly, there is no curative treatment and the path...
