Impaired autophagic flux in skeletal muscle of plectin-related epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy
2025-02-26
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Plectin, a multi-functional cytolinker and intermediate filament (IF) stabilizing protein, is essential for muscle fiber integrity and function. Mutations in the human plectin gene ( PLEC ) cause autosomal recessive epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy (EBS-MD). The disorganization and aggregation of desmin IFs in conjunction with degenerative changes of the myofibrillar appa...
