Content
Cours magistraux Embryo and Foetal development of the musculoskeletal system (4h30) The developmental origin of muscles and skeleton elements Genetic Network controlling myogenesis Formation of the myotube : migration/fusion/differentiation Myofibrillogenesis: assembly, growth, and dynamics of myofibrils Setting up the muscle types: glycolytic fast fibres versus oxidative slow fibres. Adult myogenesis and regeneration (1h30) Origin of satellite cells (myogenic and non-myogenic contribution) Satellite cells niche (basal lamina) Activation and proliferation of satellite cells during muscle growth and regeneration Tissue cross talk governing musculoskeletal system development : (3h) The Neuromuscular Junction : Mechanisms Regulating development and maintenance of the NMJ / impact of neuromuscular activity on fibre types and muscle metabolism. Integrative morphogenesis and cross-tissue communication: MTJ formation, endocrine coupling of muscle and connected tissues (myokine concept) Osteoarticular system (1h30) Organization of motor skills (3h) Organization of movement, nervous regulation and involvement of the cardiovascular system (1h30) Fiber types and mechanisms of contraction (1h30)
Skeletal muscle metabolism (4h30) Energy homeostasis and ATP Production (1h30) Protein metabolism and synthesis (1h30) Proteolytic systems (1h30)
Genetic muscle disorders (3h) Etiology of genetic diseases affecting muscle development or function (in line with actors already described to be implicated in normal muscle development) (1h) Strategies for dissecting physiopathological mechanisms (1h) Presentation of different therapeutic approches tested in clinical trials (gene therapy, stem cell therapy, exon skipping) (1h)
