Overview of Gene Research
Mamstr, also known as MASTR, is a protein belonging to the myocardin family. It binds to the transcription factor serum response factor (SRF) and acts as a co-activator. It is involved in regulating genes relevant to myogenic differentiation, motile function, and also plays roles in lipid and glucose metabolism [3]. It has been associated with multiple biological processes including transcriptional regulation, metabolic pathways, and cell development and differentiation [1].
In the dy2J/dy2J mouse model of Lama2-CMD, downregulation of Mamstr was detected compared to wild-type mice. Along with Pax7 and Pax3, the downregulation of Mamstr may explain the progressive dystrophic process in this model, as opposed to the massive regeneration seen in the mdx mouse model [2].
In summary, Mamstr is important for myogenic-related processes and metabolism. Its downregulation in the dy2J/dy2J mouse model of Lama2-CMD reveals its potential role in muscle regeneration and disease progression, highlighting its significance in understanding the pathophysiology of Lama2-CMD and potentially guiding the development of new therapies [2].
