Diltiazem improves contractile properties of skeletal muscle in dysferlin‐deficient BLAJ mice, but does not reduce contraction‐induced muscle damage

B6.A‐Dysf (prmd)/GeneJ (BLAJ) mice model human limb‐girdle muscular dystrophy 2B (LGMD2B), which is linked to mutations in the dysferlin (DYSF) gene. We tested the hypothesis that, the calcium ion (Ca(2+)) channel blocker diltiazem (DTZ), reduces contraction‐induced skeletal muscle damage, in BLAJ m...
