Novel Translational Biomarkers of Skeletal Muscle Injury

NOVEL TRANSLATIONAL BIOMARKERS OF SKELETAL MUSCLE INJURY 

2 OVERVIEW OF DRUG-INDUCED SKELETAL MUSCLE INJURY 

Skeletal muscle is susceptible to injury by a broad range of pharmaceuticals. A number of recent reviews have provided examples of drugs that cause skeletal muscle injury and the known or suspected mechanism (Bannwarth, 2(X)7 Kuncl, 2009 Mastaglia and Needham, 2012 Jones etal., 2014). Broadly classified, the underlying mechanisms
