Potential association of LMNA-associated generalized lipodystrophy with juvenile dermatomyositis
Abstract Background Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is an auto-immune muscle disease which presents with skin manifestations and muscle weakness. At least 10% of the patients with JDM present with acquired lipodystrophy. Laminopathies are caused by mutations in the lamin genes and cover a wide spectr...
