“…8 Different potential causes of the muscle weakness have been proposed for XLMTM, as triad structural defects, [9][10][11] unbalanced autophagy and protein homeostasis, [12][13][14] satellite cells alterations 15 or anomalies of the neuromuscular junction. 16,17 However, monitoring cellular pathological hallmarks in living mammalian models of XLMTM was not achieved to date, and the knowledge of the cellular pathology of XLMTM mainly relies on in vitro or ex vivo observations in mammalian models, 9,13,[18][19][20][21] or on data from more evolutionary-distant models as zebrafish, 10,17 drosophila, 22 C. elegans 23 or yeast. 18,24,25 Monitoring the structure of muscles in place is thus of importance to follow disease progression and potential amelioration upon treatments.…”
