Abstract
Centronuclear myopathies are rare congenital disorders characterized by muscle weakness and mislocalization of organelles. The main genes associated to these muscle diseases are MTM1, DNM2, BIN1 and RYR1. To date, no therapy is available. Nevertheless, tamoxifen, a pharmacological compound already used in clinics for breast cancer, showed beneficial effects on the muscle phenotypes in mouse models for centronuclear myopathies. Here, the effects of tamoxifen on muscle phenotypes will be compared in the various forms of this muscle disease.
期刊介绍:
m/s offers high-quality review articles in French, covering all areas of biomedical and health research, in a monthly magazine format (10 issues / year). m/s is read by the whole French-speaking community, in France but also in Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia etc. m/s is not a primary publication, and thus will not consider unpublished data. Most articles are invited by the Editors, but spontaneous proposals are welcomed. Each issue combines news and views on the most recent scientific publications, as well as broadly accessible and updated review articles on a specific topic, and essays on science and society, history of science, public health, or reactions to published articles. Each year, m/s also publishes one or two thematic issues focused on a research topic of high interest. All review articles and essays are peer-reviewed.
