Muscle atrophy in L imb G irdle M uscular D ystrophy 2 A : a morphometric and molecular study
19 Feb 2013

AIMS: The peculiar clinical features and the pathogenic mechanism related to calpain-3 deficiency (impaired sarcomere remodelling) suggest that the ubiquitin-proteasome degradation pathway may have a crucial role in Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy 2A (LGMD2A). We therefore investigated muscle atrophy and the role of the ubiquitin-proteasome and lysosomal-autophagic degradation pathways. METHODS: We selected 25...
