Mutations in the dysferlin gene are responsible for three main dystrophic phenotypes: limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMIMB; MIM# 253601), Miyoshi myopathy (MM; MIM# 254130) and distal myopathy with anterior tibialis onset (DMAT; MIM# 606768).

In principle, dystrophic phenotypes in muscle can arise from enhanced degeneration, defective regeneration, or both.
Collectively, these results imply utrophin does not need to interact with γcyto-actin to attenuate dystrophic phenotypes in mdx skeletal muscle.
These results indicate utrophin can partially abrogate dystrophic phenotypes in mdx skeletal muscle in the absence of a direct link to γcyto-actin filaments.
It should be noted, however, that the FRG1 transgenic mouse model that resulted in dystrophic phenotypes had FRG1 skeletal muscle protein levels considerably higher than that observed in FSHD patients.
Increased HDAC2 in dystrophic muscles contributes to some dystrophic phenotypes, because reduction of HDAC2 partially ameliorates DMD phenotypes (Minetti et al., 2006; Consalvi et al., 2013).
