Statins Induce Locomotion and Muscular Phenotypes in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> That Are Reminiscent of Human Myopathy: Evidence for the Role of the Chloride Channel Inhibition in the Muscular Phenotypes

The underlying mechanisms for statin-induced myopathy (SIM) are still equivocal. In this study, we employ <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> to dissect possible underlying mechanisms for SIM. We observe that chronic fluvastatin treatment causes reduced general locomotion activity and climbin...
