The ubiquitin ligase Nedd4-1 participates in denervation-induced skeletal muscle atrophy in mice.
Skeletal muscle atrophy is a consequence of muscle inactivity resulting from denervation, unloading and immobility. It accompanies many chronic disease states and also occurs as a pathophysiologic consequence of normal aging. In all these conditions, ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis is a key regulato...
