Persistent COUP-TFII expression underlies the myopathy and impaired muscle regeneration observed in resistance to thyroid hormone-alpha

Abstract Thyroid hormone signaling plays an essential role in muscle development and function, in the maintenance of muscle mass, and in regeneration after injury, via activation of thyroid nuclear receptor alpha (THRA). A mouse model of resistance to thyroid hormone carrying a frame-shift mutation...
