Abstract

The pathogenesis of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) and type 2 (DM2) has been related to the aberrant splicing of several genes, including those encoding for ryanodine receptor 1 (RYR1), sarcoplasmatic/endoplasmatic Ca(2+) -ATPase (SERCA) and α1S subunit of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels (Cav 1.1). The aim of this study is to determine whether alterations of these genes are associated with changes in the regulation of intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis and signaling.
