Annexins and Membrane Repair Dysfunctions in Muscular Dystrophies
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Muscular dystrophies constitute a group of genetic disorders that cause weakness and progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass. Among them, Miyoshi muscular dystrophy 1 (MMD1), limb girdle muscular dystrophy type R2 (LGMDR2/2B), and LGMDR12 (2L) are ...
