Thus, the human orthologs of some of the differentially expressed genes have been linked to several neuromuscular disorders, including ALS and muscular dystrophy, such as CLCN2, ELOVL4, ELOVL5, PEA15, LBH, PAMR1, and MSTO1 (references in Table 1). The gene discussed is LBH; the disease is muscular dystrophy.
