Novel FHL1 mutation in a family with reducing body myopathy

Reducing body myopathy is a rare X-linked myopathy. It is characterized by intracytoplasmic inclusions that stain with menadione-nitroblue tetrazolium. It is caused by mutations in the FHL1 gene, which encodes the four-and-a-half LIM domain 1 protein (FHL1).
