Understanding muscle stem cell defects to better treat myopathies.
Myopathies are diseases known to alter the function and/or structure of muscle fibers. Recently, a new class of myopathies has been identified as specifically affecting the function of muscle stem cells, the cells responsible for muscle growth and regeneration. Our laboratory is seeking to better understand the molecular signature of these stem cells in different myopathic contexts, in order to develop targeted therapeutic approaches aimed at restoring their regenerative capacity.
