“…CARM1 is also emerging as an important regulator of skeletal muscle biology, a dynamic tissue accounting for 30–40% of body mass that is essential for metabolism, respiration, and mobility [ 12 ]. Indeed, we [ [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] ] and others [ [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] ] have shown that CARM1 expression and activity are altered during conditions of muscle plasticity and that the methyltransferase is required for myogenesis, glucose metabolism, and the maintenance and remodelling of muscle mass. In particular, recent work has highlighted CARM1-mediated autophagic and atrophic signalling in skeletal muscle [ 15 , 19 , [24] , [25] , [26] ], revealing a mechanism by which CARM1 influences AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and its downstream network to affect muscle mass.…”
