Muscle wasting and adipose tissue browning in infantile nephropathic cystinosis [PDF]
Muscle wasting is a common complication in patients with infantile nephropathic cystinosis, but its mechanism and association with energy metabolism is not known. We define the metabolic phenotype in Ctns(-/-) mice, an established murine model of infantile nephropathic cystinosis, with focus on muscle wasting and energy homeostasis.Male Ctns(-/-) mice ...
