The above histochemical pathologic findings were suggestive of muscular dystrophy, so immunohistochemical (IHC) study of dystrophin, sarcoglycans, merosin, beta-Spectrin, and dysferlin proteins was performed and sarcolemmal labeling with all the above examined antibodies was observed (Fig. 3). The gene discussed is LAMA2; the disease is muscular dystrophy.
