YACs selected from our contig will be the starting point for the cloning of the LGMD2B gene and thereby establish the biological basis for this form of muscular dystrophy and its relationship with the other limb-girdle muscular dystrophies.

We studied dysferlin expression in a total of 176 patients, from 166 LGMD families: 12 LGMD2B patients, 70 with other known forms of muscular dystrophies (LGMD2A, sarcoglycanopathies, LGMD2G), in an attempt to assess the effect of the primary gene-product deficiency on dysferlin.

This approach has also been explored in several other genetic disorders, including laminin α2 chain-deficient congenital muscular dystrophy, dysferlin-deficient muscular dystrophy (e.g., Miyoshi myopathy and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B), sarcoglycanopathy (limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2C), and Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy.

These results add to the existing evidence that cell membrane repair defect may be responsible for MM-type muscular dystrophy and indicate that a previously unsuspected genetic lesion that affects cell membrane repair pathway is responsible for the disease in the non-dysferlin MM patients.

These findings identify that mitochondrial deficit in muscular dystrophy compromises the repair of injured myofibers and show that this repair mechanism is distinct from and complimentary to the dysferlin-mediated repair of injured myofibers.

The phenotypic overlap of ANO5 myopathies with dysferlin-associated muscular dystrophies has inspired the hypothesis that ANO5, like dysferlin, may be involved in the repair of muscle membranes following injury.
