Cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle have many in common since being a striated muscles. Due to genetic defects expressed in both organs, cardiomyopathy and conduction disturbance are often associated with myopathy. In addition, elucidating functional abnormalities of homologous genes expressed in cardiac muscle contributes to the understanding of the pathology of skeletal muscle diseases. In the era promoting translational research, dialogue and collaboration between muscle and cardiac specialists in clinical problems will become increasingly important. At this symposium, experts of skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle speak at various aspects from basic science to clinical medicine, aiming mutual understanding and collaboration.
