Limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD) are a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous diseases characterized by weakness and wasting of the pelvic and shoulder girdle muscles. Twenty-four recessive LGMD (types R1–R24) and five dominant LGMD (types D1-D5) have been identified with characterization of mutations in various genes. To date, LGMD D3 (previously known as LGMD1G) has been characterized...
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most prevalent fatal motor neuron disease and ~10 % of cases are hereditary.
