Nemaline myopathy-7 is an autosomal recessive congenital myopathy characterized by very early onset of hypotonia and delayed motor development. Affected individuals have difficulty walking and running due to proximal muscle weakness. The disorder is slowly progressive, and patients may lose independent ambulation. Muscle biopsy shows nemaline rods and may later show minicores, abnormal protein aggregates, and dystrophic changes (summary by Ockeloen et al., 2012).

MalaCards based summary : Nemaline Myopathy 7, is also known as nemaline myopathy 7, autosomal recessive. An important gene associated with Nemaline Myopathy 7 is CFL2 (Cofilin 2). Affiliated tissues include skeletal muscle, and related phenotypes are respiratory insufficiency due to muscle weakness and high palate Disease Ontology : 12 A nemaline myopathy characterized by very early onset of hypotonia and delayed motor development that has material basis in homozygous mutation in the CFL2 gene on chromosome 14q13. UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : 74 Nemaline myopathy 7: A form of nemaline myopathy. Nemaline myopathies are muscular disorders characterized by muscle weakness of varying severity and onset, and abnormal thread-like or rod-shaped structures in muscle fibers on histologic examination. Nemaline myopathy type 7 presents at birth with hypotonia and generalized weakness. Major motor milestones are delayed, but independent ambulation is achieved. |
