Modifiers of heart and muscle function: where genetics meets physiology.

Experimental physiology - 1 Apr 2014

Swaggart Kayleigh A, McNally Elizabeth M

Abstract excerpt

New Findings What is the topic of this review? Genetic modifiers act on many different physiological aspects of muscle disease. Understanding and identifying such modifiers is important because their discovery may help to predict the course of muscle disease and also indicate pathways to be exploited in designing new therapeutics. What advances does it highlight? Genetic modifiers have been identified that act...
