Beyond Membrane Remodeling: Organelle Crosstalk and Convergent Pathology in Centronuclear Myopathy.

Centronuclear myopathy (CNM) is a genetically heterogenous congenital myopathy traditionally classified as a membrane remodeling disorder. Emerging evidence reveals that centronuclear myopathy mutations converge upon common cellular dysfunction extending beyond membrane trafficking. This review proposes a unified model positioning CNM as a disorder of impaired organelle communication and structural crosstalk. We focus on how mutations in Myotubularin1 (MTM1) and gain-of-function mutations in Dynamin 2 (DNM2) disrupt the triad architecture, leading to aberrant calcium handling, mitochondrial dysfunction, imbalanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and defective autophagy. These dysfunctions are not isolated but form a pathological feedback loop that compromises muscle integrity and regeneration. By identifying shared mechanisms across CNM types, this review positions the disorder as the convergence of organelle stress and cytoskeletal network failure. This perspective reveals novel therapeutic strategies based on the principle that targeting a central pathological node may alleviate systemic dysfunction. However, given the complexity of the organelle feedback loop, a comprehensive, multi-target approach may ultimately be required to achieve full phenotypic rescue across all affected tissues.
