" /> Rippling muscle disease 2 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Rippling muscle disease 2;

Symbol : RMD2;

CISMeF acronym : RMD; RMD2; LGMD1C;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Rippling muscle disease; RMD; LGMD1C; Muscular dystrophy, limb-girdle, type 1c;

Description : Hereditary rippling muscle disease is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by mechanically triggered contractions of skeletal muscle. In rippling muscle disease, mechanical stimulation leads to electrically silent muscle contractions that spread to neighboring fibers that cause visible ripples to move over the muscle. RMD is usually inherited as an autosomal dominant trait, but autosomal recessive inheritance has also been reported (Kubisch et al., 2005).;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutations in the caveolin 3 gene (CAV3, 601253.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Increased serum creatine kinase;

Prefixed ID : #606072;
