The paper identifies CACNA2D4 variants associated with exertional heat stroke susceptibility and shows their impact on calcium signaling in skeletal muscle.

This study uses a zebrafish model of Bethlem myopathy to show that collagen VI deficiency disrupts CaV1.1 function, leading to increased sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ leak and muscle dysfunction.

The paper develops an ex vivo model of nerve-induced skeletal muscle contraction to study its endocrine and paracrine responses and effects on cell types.

This study shows that col22a1 gene ablation in zebrafish leads to variable phenotypes in muscle function and movement, highlighting its role in force transmission and postural control.
