Mutations in COMP cause familial carpal tunnel syndrome

Familial carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is common, but causal genes are not characterized. Here the authors report two CTS-related mutations in two large families that impair secretion of COMP in tenocytes, leading to ER stress-induced unfolded protein response, inflammation and fibrosis in patients a...

Sumario:Familial carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is common, but causal genes are not characterized. Here the authors report two CTS-related mutations in two large families that impair secretion of COMP in tenocytes, leading to ER stress-induced unfolded protein response, inflammation and fibrosis in patients and mouse models.
