During my PhD I focused on the role of collagen VI in skeletal muscle regeneration and in intestinal homeostasis. Collagen VI is a glycoprotein of the extracellular matrix (ECM) containing three genetically distinct chains and forming an extended microfilamentous network that interacts with the cells and with other ECM components. Mutations of collagen VI genes in humans cause several muscle diseases, including Bethlem myopathy and Ullrich congenital muscle dystrophy. The generation of a collagen VI knockout mouse model was fundamental for clarifying the pathomolecular defects caused by the absence of this protein and provided a valuable tool for developing novel therapeutic opportunities in patients. During the past decade, studies on coll...
