Myasthenic syndrome, congenital, 8: A form of congenital myasthenic syndrome, a group of disorders characterized by failure of neuromuscular transmission, including pre- synaptic, synaptic, and post-synaptic disorders that are not of autoimmune origin. Clinical features are easy fatigability and muscle weakness. CMS8 is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by prominent defects of both the pre- and postsynaptic regions. Affected individuals have onset of muscle weakness in early childhood; the severity of the weakness and muscles affected is variable.
MalaCards based summary : Myasthenic Syndrome, Congenital, 8, is also known as myasthenic syndrome, congenital, 8, with pre- and postsynaptic defects, and has symptoms including facial paresis An important gene associated with Myasthenic Syndrome, Congenital, 8 is AGRN (Agrin), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Degradation of the extracellular matrix and Antiarrhythmic Pathway, Pharmacodynamics. Related phenotypes are high palate and respiratory insufficiency Disease Ontology : 12 A congenital myasthenic syndrome characterized by autosomal recessive inheritance of prominent defects of both the pre- and postsynaptic regions and muscle weakness that has material basis in homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the AGRN gene on chromosome 1p. OMIM : 56 Congenital myasthenic syndromes are genetic disorders of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) that are classified by the site of the transmission defect: presynaptic, synaptic, and postsynaptic. CMS8 is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by prominent defects of both the pre- and postsynaptic regions. Affected individuals have onset of muscle weakness in early childhood; the severity of the weakness and muscles affected is variable (summary by Maselli et al., 2012).
