SELENON (SEPN1) protects skeletal muscle from saturated fatty acid-induced ER stress and insulin resistance

Selenoprotein N (SELENON) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein whose loss of function leads to a congenital myopathy associated with insulin resistance (SEPN1-related myopathy). The exact cause of the insulin resistance in patients with SELENON loss of function is not known. Skeletal muscle is t...
