Journal of Genetic Counseling, Volume 34, Issue 6, December 2025.Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X‐linked genetic condition characterized by progressive muscle degeneration. Recently, several genotype‐specific treatment options for DMD have become available. Prenatal genetic counselors may encounter at‐risk patients for DMD, through a variety of indications.

Muscular dystrophy associated with the DMD gene in women
Нервно-мышечные болезниDystrophinopathies are a spectrum of X-linked muscular disorders associated with pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in the dystrophin gene (DMD). Typically, the condition develops in males, but cases of symptom manifestation have also been described ...

Skeletal Muscle Metabolism in Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophy—Implications for Therapies
Nutrients, 2018 The interactions between nutrition and metabolism and skeletal muscle have long been known. Muscle is the major metabolic organ—it consumes more calories than other organs—and therefore, there is a clear need to discuss these interactions and provide ...

Exploring Desmin as a Potential Modifier in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy–Associated Cardiomyopathy
Acta Physiologica, Volume 241, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a rare X‐linked genetic disorder, is affecting skeletal and cardiac muscles due to the loss of the dystrophin protein. Modifier proteins, whose expression is altered in DMD patients, may influence disease progression.

Orofacial muscles may be affected in early stages of Becker muscular dystrophy: A preliminary study
Muscle and Nerve, 2019 Dysphagia is reported in patients with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy. Our clinical experience suggests that, compared with Duchenne patients, impaired mastication and swallowing occur early in Becker patients relative to their skeletal muscle ...

Cardiac involvement in the dystrophinopathies
Journal of Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine, 2008 The dystrophinopathies are a group of disorders that are characterized by absence or deficiency of functional dystrophin, a large cytoskeletal protein of striated muscle that is closely associated with transmembrane glycoprotein complexes.

Muscle MRI and functional outcome measures in Becker muscular dystrophy
Scientific Reports, 2017 Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is a neuromuscular disorder allelic to Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), caused by in-frame mutations in the dystrophin gene, and characterized by a clinical progression that is both milder and more heterogeneous than DMD.
