Dysfunctional lamins as mediators of oxidative stress in Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy
Deficit of lamin A/C or emerin causes genetically transmitted Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD). As lamins are considered to be mediators of oxidative stress, the antioxidant/oxidant status was examined.
