This study uses R405W desmin knock-in mice to identify mitochondrial dysfunction, protein quality control issues, and myofibrillar structural changes in myofibrillar myopathy.

This study examines how power-training and aging affect endomysium content and fiber cross-sectional area in human soleus muscle, finding no significant changes in endomysium but increased fiber area with training and aging.

This study identifies impaired autophagic flux in skeletal muscle of EBS-MD patients and plectin-deficient models, linking it to protein aggregation pathology.

This paper establishes an immortalised murine desminopathy model and finds reduced mitochondrial proton leak and ADP/ATP translocase levels in desminopathy myotubes.
