Ctcf deficiency in myofibers induces pathological genome reprogramming toward the spontaneous development of myopathy
How perennial, postmitotic multinucleated tissues, such as skeletal myofibers, maintain their identity and transcriptional adaptation to homeostatic perturbations through adult life is an outstanding question. To address this issue, we investigated the consequences of loss of 3D-genome architecture in skeletal muscles by generating myofiber-specific Ctcf-deficient (CtcfmKO) mice. CtcfmKO mice did…
