Defects in macroautophagy/autophagy are implicated in the pathogenesis of neuromuscular and heart diseases. To precisely define the roles of autophagy-related genes in skeletal and cardiac muscles, we generated muscle-specificrb1cc1-andatg14-conditional knockout (cKO) mice by usingCkm/Ckmm2-Creand compared their phenotypes to those ofulk1 ulk2-conditional double-knockout (cDKO) mice.atg14-cKO mice developed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, which was associated with abnormal accumulation of autophagic cargoes in the heart and early mortality. Skeletal muscles of bothatg14-cKO andrb1cc1-cKO mice showed features of autophagic vacuolar myopathy with ubiquitin+SQSTM1+deposits, but only those ofrb1cc1-cKO mice showed TARDBP/TDP-43+pathology and other features of the inclusion body myopathy–like disease we previously described inulk1 ulk2-cDKO mice. Herein, we highlight tissue-specific differences between skeletal and cardiac muscles in their reliance on core autophagy proteins and unique roles for ULK1-ULK2 and RB1CC1 among these proteins in the development of TARDBP+pathology.ABBREVIATIONS:AVM: autophagic vacuolar myopathy; cDKO: conditional double knockout; cKO: conditional knockout; H&E: hematoxylin and eosin; IBM: inclusion body myopathy; mtDNA: mitochondrial DNA; PFA: paraformaldehyde; RNP: ribonucleoprotein; TBST: Tris-buffered saline with 0.2% Triton X-100
