Abstract
Autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (AD-CNM) is a rare congenital myopathy characterized by muscle weakness and centrally located nuclei in muscle fibers in the absence of any regeneration. AD-CNM is due to mutations in the DNM2 gene encoding dynamin 2 (DNM2), a large GTPase involved in intracellular membrane trafficking and a regulator of actin and microtubule cytoskeletons. DNM2 mutations are associated with a broad clinical spectrum ranging from severe neonatal to less severe late-onset forms. The histopathological signature includes nuclear centralization, predominance and atrophy of type 1 myofibers and radiating sarcoplasmic strands. To explain the muscle dysfunction, several pathophysiological mechanisms affecting key mechanisms of muscle homeostasis have been identified. They include defects in excitation-contraction coupling, muscle regeneration, mitochondria or autophagy. Several therapeutic approaches are under development by modulating the expression of DNM2 in a pan-allelic manner or by allele-specific silencing targeting only the mutated allele, which open the era of clinical trials for this pathology.

Abstract
Dynamin 2 (DNM2) is a ubiquitously expressed GTPase regulating membrane trafficking and cytoskeleton dynamics. Heterozygous dominant mutations in DNM2 cause centronuclear myopathy (CNM), associated with muscle weakness and atrophy and histopathological hallmarks as fiber hypotrophy and organelles mis-position. Different severities range from the severe neonatal onset form to the moderate form with childhood onset and to the mild adult onset form. No therapy is approved for CNM. Here we aimed to validate and rescue a mouse model for the moderate form of DNM2-CNM harboring the common DNM2 R369W missense mutation. Dnm2R369W/+ mice presented with increased DNM2 protein level in muscle and moderate CNM-like phenotypes with force deficit, muscle and fiber hypotrophy, impaired mTOR signaling, and progressive mitochondria and nuclei mis-position with age. Molecular analyses revealed a fiber type switch toward oxidative metabolism correlating with decreased force and alteration of mitophagy markers paralleling mitochondria structural defects. Normalization of DNM2 levels through intramuscular injection of AAV-shDnm2 targeting Dnm2 mRNA significantly improved histopathology and muscle and myofiber hypotrophy. These results showed that the Dnm2R369W/+ mouse is a faithful model for the moderate form of DNM2-CNM and revealed that DNM2 normalization after a short 4-week treatment is sufficient to improve the CNM phenotypes.

J Physiol 2023; 601:99-121. [PMID: 36408764 PMCID: PMC10107287 DOI: 10.1113/jp283650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
In mammalian skeletal muscle, the propagation of surface membrane depolarization into the interior of the muscle fibre along the transverse (T) tubular network is essential for the synchronized release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) via ryanodine receptors (RyRs) in response to the conformational change in the voltage-sensor dihydropyridine receptors. Deficiency in 3-phosphoinositide phosphatase myotubularin (MTM1) has been reported to disrupt T-tubules, resulting in impaired SR calcium release. Here confocal calcium transients recorded in muscle fibres of MTM1-deficient mice were compared with the results from a model where propagation of the depolarization along the T-tubules was modelled mathematically with disruptions in the network assumed to modify the access and transmembrane resistance as well as the capacitance. If, in simulations, T-tubules were assumed to be partially or completely inaccessible to the depolarization and RyRs at these points to be prime for calcium-induced calcium release, all the features of measured SR calcium release could be reproduced. We conclude that the inappropriate propagation of the depolarization into the fibre interior is the initial critical cause of severely impaired SR calcium release in MTM1 deficiency, while the Ca2+ -triggered opening of RyRs provides an alleviating support to the diseased process. KEY POINTS: Myotubular myopathy is a fatal disease due to genetic deficiency in the phosphoinositide phosphatase MTM1. Although the causes are known and corresponding gene therapy strategies are being developed, there is no mechanistic understanding of the disease-associated muscle function failure. Resolving this issue is of primary interest not only for a fundamental understanding of how MTM1 is critical for healthy muscle function, but also for establishing the related cellular mechanisms most primarily or stringently affected by the disease, which are thus of potential interest as therapy targets. The mathematical modelling approach used in the present work proves that the disease-associated alteration of the plasma membrane invagination network is sufficient to explain the dysfunctions of excitation-contraction coupling, providing the first integrated quantitative framework that explains the associated contraction failure.

Abstract
Centronuclear myopathy (CNM) is a congenital myopathy characterised by centralised nuclei in skeletal myofibers. T-tubules, sarcolemmal invaginations required for excitation-contraction coupling, are disorganised in the skeletal muscles of CNM patients. Previous studies showed that various endocytic proteins are involved in T-tubule biogenesis and their dysfunction is tightly associated with CNM pathogenesis. DNM2 and BIN1 are two causative genes for CNM that encode essential membrane remodelling proteins in endocytosis, dynamin 2 and BIN1, respectively. In this review, we overview the functions of dynamin 2 and BIN1 in T-tubule biogenesis and discuss how their dysfunction in membrane remodelling leads to CNM pathogenesis.

Abstract
Mutations in the BIN1 (Bridging Interactor 1) gene, encoding the membrane remodeling protein amphiphysin 2, cause centronuclear myopathy (CNM) associated with severe muscle weakness and myofiber disorganization and hypotrophy. There is no available therapy, and the validation of therapeutic proof of concept is impaired by the lack of a faithful and easy-to-handle mammalian model. Here, we generated and characterized the Bin1mck-/- mouse through Bin1 knockout in skeletal muscle. Bin1mck-/- mice were viable, unlike the constitutive Bin1 knockout, and displayed decreased muscle force and most histological hallmarks of CNM, including myofiber hypotrophy and intracellular disorganization. Notably, Bin1mck-/- myofibers presented strong defects in mitochondria and T-tubule networks associated with deficient calcium homeostasis and excitation-contraction coupling at the triads, potentially representing the main pathomechanisms. Systemic injection of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) targeting Dnm2 (Dynamin 2), which codes for dynamin 2, a BIN1 binding partner regulating membrane fission and mutated in other forms of CNM, improved muscle force and normalized the histological Bin1mck-/- phenotypes within 5 weeks. Overall, we generated a faithful mammalian model for CNM linked to BIN1 defects and validated Dnm2 ASOs as a first translatable approach to efficiently treat BIN1-CNM.

Abstract
Centronuclear myopathies (CNM) are rare congenital disorders characterized by muscle weakness and structural defects including fiber hypotrophy and organelle mispositioning. The main CNM forms are caused by mutations in: the MTM1 gene encoding the phosphoinositide phosphatase myotubularin (myotubular myopathy), the DNM2 gene encoding the mechanoenzyme dynamin 2, the BIN1 gene encoding the membrane curvature sensing amphiphysin 2, and the RYR1 gene encoding the skeletal muscle calcium release channel/ryanodine receptor. MTM1, BIN1, and DNM2 proteins are involved in membrane remodeling and trafficking, while RyR1 directly regulates excitation-contraction coupling (ECC). Several CNM animal models have been generated or identified, which confirm shared pathological anomalies in T-tubule remodeling, ECC, organelle mispositioning, protein homeostasis, neuromuscular junction, and muscle regeneration. Dynamin 2 plays a crucial role in CNM physiopathology and has been validated as a common therapeutic target for three CNM forms. Indeed, the promising results in preclinical models set up the basis for ongoing clinical trials. Another two clinical trials to treat myotubular myopathy by MTM1 gene therapy or tamoxifen repurposing are also ongoing. Here, we review the contribution of the different CNM models to understanding physiopathology and therapy development with a focus on the commonly dysregulated pathways and current therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Skeletal muscles are composed of hundreds of multinucleated muscle fibers (myofibers) whose myonuclei are regularly positioned all along the myofiber's periphery except the few ones clustered underneath the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) at the synaptic zone. This precise myonuclei organization is altered in different types of muscle disease, including centronuclear myopathies (CNMs). However, the molecular machinery regulating myonuclei position and organization in mature myofibers remains largely unknown. Conversely, it is also unclear how peripheral myonuclei positioning is lost in the related muscle diseases. Here, we describe the microtubule-associated protein, MACF1, as an essential and evolutionary conserved regulator of myonuclei positioning and maintenance, in cultured mammalian myotubes, in Drosophila muscle, and in adult mammalian muscle using a conditional muscle-specific knockout mouse model. In vitro, we show that MACF1 controls microtubules dynamics and contributes to microtubule stabilization during myofiber's maturation. In addition, we demonstrate that MACF1 regulates the microtubules density specifically around myonuclei, and, as a consequence, governs myonuclei motion. Our in vivo studies show that MACF1 deficiency is associated with alteration of extra-synaptic myonuclei positioning and microtubules network organization, both preceding NMJ fragmentation. Accordingly, MACF1 deficiency results in reduced muscle excitability and disorganized triads, leaving voltage-activated sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release and maximal muscle force unchanged. Finally, adult MACF1-KO mice present an improved resistance to fatigue correlated with a strong increase in mitochondria biogenesis.

Abstract
Dynamin 2 (DNM2) is a ubiquitously expressed protein involved in many functions related to trafficking and remodeling of membranes and cytoskeleton dynamics. Mutations in the DNM2 gene cause the autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (AD-CNM), characterized mainly by muscle weakness and central nuclei. Several defects have been identified in the KI-Dnm2R465W/+ mouse model of the disease to explain the muscle phenotype, including reduction of the satellite cell pool in muscle, but the functional consequences of this depletion have not been characterized until now. Satellite cells (SC) are the main source for muscle growth and regeneration of mature tissue. Here, we investigated muscle regeneration in the KI-Dnm2R465W/+ mouse model for AD-CNM. We found a reduced number of Pax7-positive SCs, which were also less activated after induced muscle injury. The muscles of the KI-Dnm2R465W/+ mouse regenerated more slowly and less efficiently than wild-type ones, formed fewer new myofibers, and did not recover its normal mass 15 days after injury. Altogether, our data provide evidence that the muscle regeneration is impaired in the KI-Dnm2R465W/+ mouse and contribute with one more layer to the comprehension of the disease, by identifying a new pathomechanism linked to DNM2 mutations which may be involved in the muscle-specific impact occurring in AD-CNM.

Abstract
Muscular dystrophies are a group of more than 160 different human neuromuscular disorders characterized by a progressive deterioration of muscle mass and strength. The causes, symptoms, age of onset, severity, and progression vary depending on the exact time point of diagnosis and the entity. Congenital myopathies are rare muscle diseases mostly present at birth that result from genetic defects. There are no known cures for congenital myopathies; however, recent advances in gene therapy are promising tools in providing treatment. This review gives an overview of the mouse models used to investigate the most common muscular dystrophies and congenital myopathies with emphasis on their potentials and limitations in respect to human applications.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle development and regeneration are tightly regulated processes. How the intracellular organization of muscle fibers is achieved during these steps is unclear. Here, we focus on the cellular and physiological roles of amphiphysin 2 (BIN1), a membrane remodeling protein mutated in both congenital and adult centronuclear myopathies (CNM), that is ubiquitously expressed and has skeletal muscle-specific isoforms. We created and characterized constitutive muscle-specific and inducible Bin1 homozygous and heterozygous knockout mice targeting either ubiquitous or muscle-specific isoforms. Constitutive Bin1-deficient mice died at birth from lack of feeding due to a skeletal muscle defect. T-tubules and other organelles were misplaced and altered, supporting a general early role for BIN1 in intracellular organization, in addition to membrane remodeling. Although restricted deletion of Bin1 in unchallenged adult muscles had no impact, the forced switch from the muscle-specific isoforms to the ubiquitous isoforms through deletion of the in-frame muscle-specific exon delayed muscle regeneration. Thus, ubiquitous BIN1 function is necessary for muscle development and function, whereas its muscle-specific isoforms fine tune muscle regeneration in adulthood, supporting that BIN1 CNM with congenital onset are due to developmental defects, whereas later onset may be due to regeneration defects.

Abstract
Mutations in the RYR1 gene, encoding the skeletal muscle calcium channel RyR1, lead to congenital myopathies, through expression of a channel with abnormal permeability and/or in reduced amount, but the direct functional whole organism consequences of exclusive reduction in RyR1 amount have never been studied. We have developed and characterized a mouse model with inducible muscle specific RYR1 deletion. Tamoxifen-induced recombination in the RYR1 gene at adult age resulted in a progressive reduction in the protein amount reaching a stable level of 50% of the initial amount, and was associated with a progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. Measurement of calcium fluxes in isolated muscle fibers demonstrated a reduction in the amplitude of RyR1-related calcium release mirroring the reduction in the protein amount. Alterations in the muscle structure were observed, with fibers atrophy, abnormal mitochondria distribution and membrane remodeling. An increase in the expression level of many proteins was observed, as well as an inhibition of the autophagy process. This model demonstrates that RyR1 reduction is sufficient to recapitulate most features of Central Core Disease, and accordingly similar alterations were observed in muscle biopsies from Dusty Core Disease patients (a subtype of Central Core Disease), pointing to common pathophysiological mechanisms related to RyR1 reduction.

Preserved Ca 2+ handling and excitation-contraction coupling in muscle fibres from diet-induced obese mice. Diabetologia 2020; 63:2471-2481.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Disrupted intracellular Ca2+ handling is known to play a role in diabetic cardiomyopathy but it has also been postulated to contribute to obesity- and type 2 diabetes-associated skeletal muscle dysfunction. Still, there is so far very limited functional insight into whether, and if so to what extent, muscular Ca2+ homeostasis is affected in this situation, so as to potentially determine or contribute to muscle weakness. In differentiated muscle, force production is under the control of the excitation-contraction coupling process: upon plasma membrane electrical activity, the CaV1.1 voltage sensor/Ca2+ channel in the plasma membrane triggers opening of the ryanodine receptor Ca2+ release channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membrane. Opening of the ryanodine receptor triggers the rise in cytosolic Ca2+, which activates contraction while Ca2+ uptake by the SR ATPase Ca2+-pump promotes relaxation. These are the core mechanisms underlying the tight control of muscle force by neuronal electrical activity. This study aimed at characterising their inherent physiological function in a diet-induced mouse model of obesity and type 2 diabetes. METHODS Intact muscle fibres were isolated from mice fed either with a standard chow diet or with a high-fat, high-sucrose diet generating obesity, insulin resistance and glucose intolerance. Properties of muscle fibres were investigated with a combination of whole-cell voltage-clamp electrophysiology and confocal fluorescence imaging. The integrity and density of the plasma membrane network (transverse tubules) that carries the membrane excitation throughout the muscle fibres was assessed with the dye Di-8-ANEPPS. CaV1.1 Ca2+ channel activity was studied by measuring the changes in current across the plasma membrane elicited by voltage-clamp depolarising pulses of increasing amplitude. SR Ca2+ release through ryanodine receptors was simultaneously detected with the Ca2+-sensitive dye Rhod-2 in the cytosol. CaV1.1 voltage-sensing activity was separately characterised from the properties of intra-plasma-membrane charge movement produced by short voltage-clamp depolarising pulses. Spontaneous Ca2+ release at rest was assessed with the Ca2+-sensitive dye Fluo-4. The rate of SR Ca2+ uptake was assessed from the time course of cytosolic Ca2+ recovery after the end of voltage excitation using the Ca2+-sensitive dye Fluo-4FF. The response to a fatigue-stimulation protocol was determined from the time course of decline of the peak Fluo-4FF Ca2+ transients elicited by 30 trains of 5-ms-long depolarising pulses delivered at 100 Hz. RESULTS The transverse tubule network architecture and density were well preserved in the fibres from the obese mice. The CaV1.1 Ca2+ current and voltage-sensing properties were also largely unaffected with mean values for maximum conductance and maximum amount of charge of 234 ± 12 S/F and 30.7 ± 1.6 nC/μF compared with 196 ± 13 S/F and 32.9 ± 2.0 nC/μF in fibres from mice fed with the standard diet, respectively. Voltage-activated SR Ca2+ release through ryanodine receptors also exhibited very similar properties in the two groups with mean values for maximum rate of Ca2+ release of 76.0 ± 6.5 and 78.1 ± 4.4 μmol l-1 ms-1, in fibres from control and obese mice, respectively. The response to a fatigue protocol was also largely unaffected in fibres from the obese mice, and so were the rate of cytosolic Ca2+ removal and the spontaneous Ca2+ release activity at rest. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION The functional properties of the main mechanisms involved in the control of muscle Ca2+ homeostasis are well preserved in muscle fibres from obese mice, at the level of both the plasma membrane and of the SR. We conclude that intracellular Ca2+ handling and excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle fibres are not primary targets of obesity and type 2 diabetes. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Classical dynamins are large GTPases regulating membrane and cytoskeleton dynamics, and they are linked to different pathological conditions ranging from neuromuscular diseases to encephalopathy and cancer. Dominant dynamin 2 (DNM2) mutations lead to either mild adult onset or severe autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (ADCNM). Our objectives were to better understand the pathomechanism of severe ADCNM and test a potential therapy. Here, we created the Dnm2SL/+ mouse line harboring the common S619L mutation found in patients with severe ADCNM and impairing the conformational switch regulating dynamin self-assembly and membrane remodeling. The Dnm2SL/+ mouse faithfully reproduces severe ADCNM hallmarks with early impaired muscle function and force, together with myofiber hypotrophy. It revealed swollen mitochondria lacking cristae as the main ultrastructural defect and potential cause of the disease. Patient analysis confirmed this structural hallmark. In addition, DNM2 reduction with antisense oligonucleotides after disease onset efficiently reverted locomotor and force defects after only 3 weeks of treatment. Most histological defects including mitochondria alteration were partially or fully rescued. Overall, this study highlights an efficient approach to revert the severe form of dynamin-related centronuclear myopathy. These data also reveal that the dynamin conformational switch is key for muscle function and should be targeted for future therapeutic developments. The dynamin 2 S619L mouse model displays defects in skeletal muscle that are rescued by reducing dynamin 2 protein levels with antisense oligonucleotide treatment.

Abstract
Mutations in the myotubularin 1 (MTM1) gene can cause the fatal disease X-linked centronuclear myopathy (XLCNM), but the underlying mechanism is incompletely understood. In this report, using an Mtm1 -/y disease model, we found that expression of the intragenic microRNA miR-199a-1 is up-regulated along with that of its host gene, dynamin 2 (Dnm2), in XLCNM skeletal muscle. To assess the role of miR-199a-1 in XLCNM, we crossed miR-199a-1 -/- with Mtm1 -/y mice and found that the resultant miR-199a-1-Mtm1 double-knockout mice display markers of improved health, as evidenced by lifespans prolonged by 30% and improved muscle strength and histology. Mechanistic analyses showed that miR-199a-1 directly targets nonmuscle myosin IIA (NM IIA) expression and, hence, inhibits muscle postnatal development as well as muscle maturation. Further analysis revealed that increased expression and phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) up-regulates Dnm2/miR-199a-1 expression in XLCNM muscle. Our results suggest that miR-199a-1 has a critical role in XLCNM pathology and imply that this microRNA could be targeted in therapies to manage XLCNM.

Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20133361. [PMID: 31323924 PMCID: PMC6651408 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20133361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2019] [Revised: 07/01/2019] [Accepted: 07/04/2019] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Small Ankyrins (sAnk1) are muscle-specific isoforms generated by the Ank1 gene that participate in the organization of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of striated muscles. Accordingly, the volume of SR tubules localized around the myofibrils is strongly reduced in skeletal muscle fibers of 4- and 10-month-old sAnk1 knockout (KO) mice, while additional structural alterations only develop with aging. To verify whether the lack of sAnk1 also alters intracellular Ca2+ handling, cytosolic Ca2+ levels were analyzed in stimulated skeletal muscle fibers from 4- and 10-month-old sAnk1 KO mice. The SR Ca2+ content was reduced in sAnk1 KO mice regardless of age. The amplitude of the Ca2+ transients induced by depolarizing pulses was decreased in myofibers of sAnk1 KO with respect to wild type (WT) fibers, while their voltage dependence was not affected. Furthermore, analysis of spontaneous Ca2+ release events (sparks) on saponin-permeabilized muscle fibers indicated that the frequency of sparks was significantly lower in fibers from 4-month-old KO mice compared to WT. Furthermore, both the amplitude and spatial spread of sparks were significantly smaller in muscle fibers from both 4- and 10-month-old KO mice compared to WT. These data suggest that the absence of sAnk1 results in an impairment of SR Ca2+ release, likely as a consequence of a decreased Ca2+ store due to the reduction of the SR volume in sAnk1 KO muscle fibers.

Ca 2+-induced sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ release in myotubularin-deficient muscle fibers. Cell Calcium 2019; 80:91-100. [PMID: 30999217 DOI: 10.1016/j.ceca.2019.04.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2019] [Revised: 03/27/2019] [Accepted: 04/08/2019] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Skeletal muscle deficiency in the 3-phosphoinositide (PtdInsP) phosphatase myotubularin (MTM1) causes myotubular myopathy which is associated with severe depression of voltage-activated sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release through ryanodine receptors. In the present study we aimed at further understanding how Ca2+ release is altered in MTM1-deficient muscle fibers, at rest and during activation. While in wild-type muscle fibers, SR Ca2+ release exhibits fast stereotyped kinetics of activation and decay throughout the voltage range of activation, Ca2+ release in MTM1-deficient muscle fibers exhibits slow and unconventional kinetics at intermediate voltages, suggestive of partial loss of the normal control of ryanodine receptor Ca2+ channel activity. In addition, the diseased muscle fibers at rest exhibit spontaneous elementary Ca2+ release events at a frequency 30 times greater than that of control fibers. Eighty percent of the events have spatiotemporal properties of archetypal Ca2+ sparks while the rest take either the form of lower amplitude, longer duration Ca2+ release events or of a combination thereof. The events occur at preferred locations in the fibers, indicating spatially uneven distribution of the parameters determining spontaneous ryanodine receptor 1 opening. Spatially large Ca2+ release sources were obviously involved in some of these events, suggesting that opening of ryanodine receptors in one cluster can activate opening of ryanodine receptors in a neighboring one. Overall results demonstrate that opening of Ca2+-activated ryanodine receptors is promoted both at rest and during excitation-contraction coupling in MTM1-deficient muscle fibers. Because access to this activation mode is denied to ryanodine receptors in healthy skeletal muscle, this may play an important role in the associated disease situation.

Abstract
Dynamin 2 (DNM2) is a key protein of the endocytosis and intracellular membrane trafficking machinery. Mutations in the DNM2 gene cause autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (CNM) and a knock-in mouse model expressing the most frequent human DNM2 mutation in CNM (Knock In-Dnm2R465W/+) develops a myopathy sharing similarities with human disease. Using isolated muscle fibres from Knock In-Dnm2R465W/+ mice, we investigated number, spatial distribution and morphology of myonuclei. We showed a reduction of nuclear number from 20 weeks of age in Tibialis anterior muscle from heterozygous mice. This reduction is associated with a decrease in the satellite cell content in heterozygous muscles. The concomitant reduction of myonuclei number and cross-section area in the heterozygous fibres contributes to largely maintain myonuclear density and volume of myonuclear domain. Moreover, we identified signs of impaired spatial nuclear distribution including alteration of distance from myonuclei to their nearest neighbours and change in orientation of the nuclei. This study highlights reduction of number of myonuclei, a key regulator of the myofiber size, as a new pathomechanism underlying muscle atrophy in the dominant centronuclear myopathy. In addition, this study opens a new line of investigation which could prove particularly important on satellite cells in dominant centronuclear myopathy.

Abstract
Centronuclear myopathies are a group of congenital myopathies characterized by severe muscle weakness, genetic heterogeneity, and defects in the structural organization of muscle fibers. Their names are derived from the central position of nuclei on biopsies, while they are at the fiber periphery under normal conditions. No specific therapy exists yet for these debilitating diseases. Mutations in the myotubularin phosphoinositides phosphatase, the GTPase dynamin 2, or amphiphysin 2 have been identified to cause respectively X-linked centronuclear myopathies (also called myotubular myopathy) or autosomal dominant and recessive forms. Mutations in additional genes, as RYR1, TTN, SPEG or CACNA1S, were linked to phenotypes that can overlap with centronuclear myopathies. Numerous animal models of centronuclear myopathies have been studied over the last 15 years, ranging from invertebrate to large mammalian models. Their characterization led to a partial understanding of the pathomechanisms of these diseases and allowed the recent validation of therapeutic proof-of-concepts. Here, we review the different therapeutic strategies that have been tested so far for centronuclear myopathies, some of which may be translated to patients.
