In order to examine the effect of fluvastatin on muscle development and regeneration, we measured the expression of Mhc (Myosin heavy chain and Drosophila homolog of MHC), Mef2 (myocyte enhancer factor-2 and Drosophila homolog of MEF2) and zfh1 (Zn finger homeodomain 1 and Drosophila homologue of ZEB2) due to their importance in muscle development, differentiation, and regeneration and since their disruption gives rise to muscle problems in flies, including myopathy [80,94,95,96,97,98,99,100,101]. This evidence concerns the gene HLA-C and myopathy.
