List of neuromuscular disorders

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Below is a partial list of neuromuscular disorders.

Affecting muscle

[edit]

Muscular dystrophies

[edit]

Dystrophinopathies

[edit]

Limb girdle muscular dystrophies

[edit]

Limb girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD) as defined by the European Neuromuscular Centre in 2018.[1][2] They are named by the following system: LGMD, recessive or dominant inheritance (R or D), order of discovery (number), affected protein.[1]

  • LGMD D1 DNAJB6-related
  • LGMD D2 TNP03-related
  • LGMD D3 HNRNPDL-related
  • LGMD D4 calpain3-related
  • LGMD D5 collagen 6-related
  • LGMD R1 calpain3-related (Calpainopathy)
  • LGMD R2 dysferlin-related
  • LGMD R3 α-sarcoglycan-related
  • LGMD R4 β-sarcoglycan-related
  • LGMD R5 γ-sarcoglycan-related
  • LGMD R6 δ-sarcoglycan-related
  • LGMD R7 telethonin-related
  • LGMD R8 TRIM 32-related
  • LGMD R9 FKRP-related
  • LGMD R10 titin-related
  • LGMD R11 POMT1-related
  • LGMD R12 anoctamin5-related
  • LGMD R13 Fukutin-related
  • LGMD R14 POMT2-related
  • LGMD R15 POMGnT1-related
  • LGMD R16 α-dystroglycan-related
  • LGMD R17 plectin-related

  • LGMD R19 GMPPB-related
  • LGMD R20 ISPD-related
  • LGMD R21 POGLUT1-related
  • LGMD R22 collagen 6-related
  • LGMD R23 laminin α2-related
  • LGMD R24 POMGNT2-related

Congenital muscular dystrophies

[edit]

Distal muscular dystrophy

[edit]

Distal muscular dystrophy, also called distal myopathy, is essentially any muscle disease that preferentially affects the hands and/or feet, a much less common pattern than proximal muscle weakness.

  • Late adult-onset type 1
  • Late adult-onset type 2a
  • Late adult-onset type 2b
  • Early adult-onset type 1
  • Early adult-onset type 2
  • Early adult-onset type 3

Myofibrillar myopathy

[edit]

Myofibrillar myopathies are diseases that cause similar findings of affected muscle when viewed under a microscope.[3]

  • Desminopathy
  • Myotilinopathy
  • Zaspopathy
  • Filaminopathy
  • Bag3opathy

Other muscular dystrophies

[edit]

Congenital myopathies

[edit]

Metabolic diseases

[edit]

Mutations causing defects in metabolism can cause muscle damage due to inadequate energy for muscles or accumulation of waste products.[4]

Mitochondrial myopathy

[edit]

Mitochondrial myopathies are diseases caused by mutations related to mitochondria, and thus are generally inherited from the mother with variable expressivity due to heteroplasmy.

Glycogen storage disease

[edit]

Glycogen storage diseases (GSD) are a group of diseases caused by mutations related to glycogen metabolism.

Fat oxidation defect

[edit]

Other metabolic myopathies

[edit]

Inflammatory myopathies

[edit]

Other diseases of muscle

[edit]

Affecting nerve

[edit]

Neuronopathies

[edit]

A neuronopathy affects the cell body of a nerve cell in the peripheral nervous system.[5]

Neuropathy

[edit]

A neuropathy affects the peripheral nerves.[5]
