Zusammenfassung:Immunohistochemistry analysis of the muscle specimens from the patients is essential to define the degree of the protein defect, and may direct the genetic study. [...]new diagnostic tools such as SNP genotyping, multiple ligation probe amplification or other systems to determine copy number variation, and analysis of putative genome regulatory elements, might be required. [...]caveolinopathies can be transmitted as autosomal-dominant or autosomal-recessive traits.
