| histological analysis of T32KO (Trim32 knock-out model) skeletal muscles revealed mild myopathic changes, electron microscopy showed areas with Z-line streaming and a dilated sarcotubular system with vacuoles -- the latter being a prominent feature of sarcotubular myopathy | |
Trim32-null mice showed a decrease in the concentration of neurofilament proteins in the brain and a reduced motoraxon diamete |

Trim32-/- mice produced higher levels of serum inflammatory cytokines and were more sensitive to loss of body weight and inflammatory death upon Salmonella typhimurium infection |
