Muscular Dystrophy, Limb-Girdle, Autosomal Recessive 23 (LGMDR23)

Muscular Dystrophy, Limb-Girdle, Autosomal Recessive 23, also known as lgmdr23, is related to muscular dystrophy, limb-girdle, autosomal recessive 2 and muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy. An important gene associated with Muscular Dystrophy, Limb-Girdle, Autosomal Recessive 23 is LAMA2 (Laminin Subunit Alpha 2). Affiliated tissues include brain and skeletal muscle, and related phenotypes are kyphosis and decreased nerve conduction velocity
