Gene editing restores dystrophin expression in a canine model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2018
Mutations in the gene encoding dystrophin, a protein that maintains muscle integrity and function, cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The deltaE50-MD dog model of DMD harbors a mutation corresponding to a mutational “hotspot” in the human DMD gene.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2021
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a severe, progressive, muscle-wasting disease that leads to difficulties with movement and, eventually, to the need for assisted ventilation and premature death. The disease is caused by mutations in DMD (encoding dystrophin) that abolish the production of dystrophin in muscle.

Clinical and genetic characterisation of dystrophin-deficient muscular dystrophy in a family of Miniature Poodle dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Four full-sibling intact male Miniature Poodles were evaluated at 4–19 months of age. One was clinically normal and three were affected. All affected dogs were reluctant to exercise and had generalised muscle atrophy, a stiff gait and a markedly elevated

Duchenne expert physician perspectives on Duchenne newborn screening and early Duchenne care

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, 2022
AbstractDuchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disorder typically diagnosed between 4 and 5 years of age. DMD currently has five FDA approved therapies, which has led to increased interest in newborn screening (NBS) for DMD.
