• Check out our manuscript describing the cardiac phenotype of the obscurin/Obsl1 double knockout mouse is published in Circulation Heart Failure. Double knockouts develop diastolic dysfunction heart failure, marked by deregulated calcium handling, altered mitochondrial structure and metabolism, and deregulated autophagy/mitophagy.

About the Lab

We investigate muscle development, signaling and maintenance, by studying the biological role of sarcomeric and muscle associated proteins. We are particularly interested to decipher molecular mechanisms that play a role in the development of cardiac and skeletal muscle myopathies.

The lab is active at the Department of Biomedicine at Aarhus University and Steno Diabetes Center in Denmark, and the School of Medicine at UC San Diego in the US.
