02/19/1999 - "The main observations were: 1) all LGMD2E and LGMD2F patients had a severe condition, but considerable inter- and intra-familial clinical variability was observed among patients from all other groups; 2) serum CK activities showed the highest values in LGMD2D (alpha-SG) patients among sarcoglycanopathies and LGMD2B (dysferlin) patients among nonsarcoglycanopathies; 3) comparison between LGMD2A (CAPN3) and LGMD2B (dysferlin) showed that the first have on average a more severe course and have calf hypertrophy more frequently (86% versus 13%); and 4) inability to walk on toes was observed in approximately 70% of LGMD2B patients."
02/19/1999 - "Eight genes are mapped for the AR-LGMDs; they are: LGMD2A (CAPN3) at 15q, LGMD2B (dysferlin) at 2p, LGMD2C (gamma-SG) at 13q, LGMD2D (alpha-SG) at 17q, LGMD2E (beta-SG) at 4q, LGMD2F (6-SG) at 5q, LGMD2G at 17q, and more recently LGMD2H at 9q. "
11/01/2006 - "While the quantity of beta-sarcoglycan was nearly normal in the LGMD2E carrier, the levels of dysferlin protein were reduced to 50% of controls in the carriers of LGMD2B. "
02/01/2008 - "LGMD relative frequency was as follows: LGMD1C (caveolin-3) 1.3%; LGMD2A (calpain-3) 28.4%; LGMD2B (dysferlin) 18.7%; LGMD2C (gamma-sarcoglycan) 4.5%; LGMD2D (alpha-sarcoglycan) 8.4%; LGMD2E (beta-sarcoglycan) 4.5%; LGMD2F (delta-sarcoglycan) 0.7%; LGMD2I (Fukutin-related protein) 6.4%; and undetermined 27.1%. "
09/01/2003 - "They are: calpain-3 (LGMD2A), dysferlin (LGMD2B), alpha-sarcoglycan (LGMD2D), beta-sarcoglycan (LGMD2E), gamma-sarcoglycan (LGMD2C), delta-sarcoglycan (LGMD2F), telethonin (LGMD2G), TRIM32 (LGMD2H), fukutin-related protein (LGMD2I) and titin (LGMD2J). "
