Description
Expression data from 22 human myotubes (7 healthy controls, 4 Dysferlinopathy (DYSF), 4 Caveolinopathy 3 (CAV3), 4 Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy(FSHD) and 3 Four and a half LIM 1 protein deficiency FHL1).cDNA microarray data showed that cyclin A1 levels are specifically elevated in FSHD vs. other muscular disorders such as CAV3, DYSF, FHL1 and healthy control. Data could be confirmed with RT-PCR and Western blot analysis showing up-regulated levels of cyclin A1 also on the protein level.
