Mutations in CAPN3 cause limb girdle muscular dystrophy R1 (LGMDR1, formerly LGMD2A) and lead to progressive and debilitating muscle wasting. Calpain 3 deficiency is associated with impaired CaMKIIβ signaling and blunted transcriptional programs that encode the slow-oxidative muscle phenotype. We conducted a high-throughput screen on a target of CaMKII (Myl2) to identify compounds to override this signaling defect; 4 were tested in vivo in the Capn3 knockout (C3KO) model of LGMDR1. The leading compound, AMBMP, showed good exposure and was able to reverse the LGMDR1 phenotype in vivo, including improved oxidative properties, increased slow fiber size, and enhanced exercise performance. AMBMP also activated CaMKIIβ signaling, but it did not alter other pathways known to be associated with muscle growth. Thus, AMBMP treatment activates CaMKII and metabolically reprograms skeletal muscle toward a slow muscle phenotype. These proof-of-concept studies lend support for an approach to the development of therapeutics for LGMDR1. Exercise induces calcium calmodulin kinase activation and adaptive gene expression This signaling is blunted in Capn3 deficiency, causing limb girdle muscular dystrophy A small molecule, AMBMP, is an exercise mimetic that induces these pathways AMBMP normalizes the Capn3−/− phenotype Failure to properly induce the signaling pathways that are activated by exercise and which promote the slow-oxidative gene expression program in muscle leads to limb girdle muscular dystrophy. Liu et al. report that a small molecule could activate these pathways and restore both the defective signaling and transcriptional patterns needed to reverse the muscle phenotype.
