Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy 2, Digenic (FSHD2)

Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy 2, Digenic, also known as facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy 2, is related to muscular dystrophy and facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy 1. An important gene associated with Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy 2, Digenic is SMCHD1 (Structural Maintenance Of Chromosomes Flexible Hinge Domain Containing 1), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Pre-implantation embryo and Pathophysiological roles of DUX4 in FSHD1. The drugs Benzocaine and Creatine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include skeletal muscle and lung, and related phenotypes are scapular winging and foot dorsiflexor weakness
