⚗️Dr. Alastair Khodabukus and colleagues, describe the first 3D tissue-engineered hiPSC-derived #SkeletalMuscle model of LGMD2B.
The model exhibits compromised contractile function, calcium handling, membrane repair 🩹 among other features. @BursacLab

How is muscle replaced with fat in patients with limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2B? Our most recent work uses 3D engineered skeletal muscle to explore the molecular mechanisms at play in this untreatable disease.

We had amazing weather for Yifan's going away lunch today! We will miss you Yifan, but we know you will make us proud in your MD-PhD program!
'Exciting' news about our work to develop a voltage-gated sodium channel platform for cardiac gene therapy!
