MicroRNA–mRNA Networks in Skeletal Muscle of Tailored Pig Models for Dystrophinopathies
ABSTRACT Background Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) are X‐linked dystrophinopathies caused by mutations in the dystrophin (DMD) gene. A common DMD‐causing mutation in humans is exon 52 deletion (DMDΔ52), which disrupts the reading frame and abolishes dystrophin expression.
