Impaired regeneration in LGMD2A supported by increased PAX7‐positive satellite cell content and muscle‐specific microrna dysregulation
7 Sept 2012
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Recent in vitro studies suggest that CAPN3 deficiency leads initially to accelerated myofiber formation followed by depletion of satellite cells (SC). In normal muscle, up-regulation of miR-1 and miR-206 facilitates transition from proliferating SCs to differentiating myogenic progenitors. METHODS: We examined the histopathological stages, Pax7 SC content, and muscle-specific microRNA expression in...
