This study suggested that the CAV3 c.136G > A (p.Ala46Thr) mutation can cause MD as well as different phenotypes in different individuals, suggesting that additional unknown loci must affect the disease phenotypes.
Here we report on a 4-year-old girl presenting with myalgia and muscle cramps due to a caveolin-3 deficiency in her dystrophic skeletal muscle as a result of a heterozygous 136G-->A substitution in the caveolin-3 gene.
