Mutation in the gene coding for dystrophin is the main cause of BMD. Most cases of this disease succumb to respiratory and cardiac failure in 3rd to 4th decades. The slow progression of BMD and recent achievement of gene therapies make it as an appropriate c...

Distinction between Duchenne and other muscular dystrophies by ribosomal protein synthesis.

Ribosome concentration, ribosome distribution on sucrose density gradients, and in-vitro ribosomal amino-acid incorporation (noncollagen and collagen synthesis) were studied in muscle biopsy samples obtained from 30 patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, seven patients with Becker muscular dystrophy, and 10 with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. Ribosome concentration was normal in Du...

mdxCv3 mouse is a model for electroretinography of Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy.

PURPOSE To identify an animal model for the abnormal scotopic electroretinogram found in a majority of Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy patients. METHODS Ganzfeld electroretinograms were recorded in dark-adapted normal C57BL/6 mice, and two strains of mice with different X-linked muscular dystrophy mutations (mdx and mdxCv3). Responses for the right eye were averaged and the amplitudes ...
