The adult muscle has an enormous regenerative capacity when damaged, growing new fibers or fixing the previous ones using progenitor cells with myogenic potential, named satellite cells. However, in neuromuscular disorders, both muscle development and regeneration are not efficient, causing muscle weakness and loss of motor ability.Among the many neuromuscular disorders, the centronuclear…
The muscular dystrophies form a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders, ranging from mild to severe forms. Furthermore, it is observed phenotypic variability in carriers of an identical genetic form, the same mutation, and even between patients from the same family. This raises questions about genes that have roles in different genic networks and that may count to the pathological proc…
Centronuclear myopathies are genetic disorders that cause muscle wasting and weakness. Mutations in different genes have been identified, with different inheritance patterns. One of them is DNM2, which encodes a large GTPase responsible for the release of nascent vesicles during endocytosis, among other functions related to intracellular membrane trafficking. Muscles from CNM patients are…
