Several murine models for EDMD have been generated; however, emerin-null (Emd) mice do not show obvious skeletal and cardiac muscle phenotypes, and Lmna H222P/H222P mutant (H222P) mice show only a mild phenotype in skeletal muscle when they already have severe cardiomyopathy.

Recent clinical research has confirmed that EDMD is one of several overlapping skeletal muscle phenotypes that can result from mutations in EMD and LMNA with dilated cardiomyopathy as a common feature.

These "muscle-specific" isoforms are thought to form a complex with emerin and lamin A/C at the inner nuclear membrane and mutations in all three proteins cause Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy and/or inherited dilated cardiomyopathy, disorders in which only skeletal muscle and/or heart are affected.

The more common X-linked recessive form of EDMD is caused by mutations in either EMD (encoding emerin) or FHL1 (encoding four and a half LIM domains 1), while mutations in LMNA (encoding lamin A/C), SYNE1 (encoding nesprin-1) and SYNE2 (encoding nesprin-2) lead to autosomal dominant forms of the condition.
