Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy in a 71-year-old woman with an R27Q mutation in the CAV3 gene
Dominique Figarella-Branger,Jean Pouget,Rafaëlle Bernard,Martin Krahn,C Fernandez,Nicolas Lévy,Jean-François Pellissier +6 more
TL;DR: This case emphasizes that an R27Q missense mutation in the CAV3 gene can lead to various clinical phenotypes including hyperCKemia, rippling muscle disease, distal myopathy, and LGMD1C.
Journal ArticleDOI
CD44H is expressed by cells of the oligodendrocyte lineage and by oligodendrogliomas in humans.
Corinne Bouvier-Labit,Agnès Liprandi,Gilberte Monti,Jean Francçois Pellissier,Dominique Figarella-Branger +4 more
TL;DR: Investigation by immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis showed that CD44H is expressed by cells of the oligodendrocyte lineage in vitro and by oligod endodendrogliomas in vivo especially in sites of dissemination such as subpial spaces, which suggests thatCD44H could play a role in migration of tumor cells in oligodendedrocytic tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histomolecular classification of adult diffuse gliomas: the diagnostic value of immunohistochemical markers.
Dominique Figarella-Branger,A. Maues de Paula,Carole Colin,Carole Colin,Carole Colin,Corinne Bouvier +5 more
TL;DR: Three immunohistochemical markers are contribute greatly to the classification of gliomas and should be tested routinely as diagnostic markers: TP53 mutation, IDH, TP53, and 1p19q status.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mériam Koob,Nadine Girard,Badih Ghattas,Slim Fellah,Sylviane Confort-Gouny,Dominique Figarella-Branger,Didier Scavarda +6 more
TL;DR: Multiparametric MR imaging can be accurate in determining tumor grades and types in children and types (mainly pilocytic astrocytomas and embryonal tumors) in children.
