Early detection of left ventricular involvement in patients with Duchenne’s and Becker’s muscular dystrophy

open access: yesAl-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal, 2019
Background Patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker’s muscular dystrophy (BMD) may have asymptomatic cardiac involvement for years before the development of dilated cardiomyopathy and even showed normal conventional echocardiographic ...

Revertant fibres and dystrophin traces in Duchenne muscular dystrophy: Implication for clinical trials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterised by the absence of dystrophin in muscle biopsies, although residual dystrophin can be present, either as dystrophin-positive (revertant) fibres or traces.

Escherichia coli and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
This review examines the association of strains of Escherichia coli with Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and the possible role of these bacteria play in this enigmatic condition. The review addresses evidence for E.

Functional rescue of dystrophin deficiency in mice caused by frameshift mutations using Campylobacter jejuni Cas9 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal, X-linked muscle wasting disease caused by mutations in the DMD gene. In 51% of DMD cases, a reading frame is disrupted because of deletion of several exons.

Diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy in a Presymptomatic Infant Using Next-Generation Sequencing and Chromosomal Microarray Analysis: A Case Report

open access: yesChildren, 2021
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a progressive and lethal X-linked recessive neuromuscular disease caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. It has a high rate of diagnostic delay; early diagnosis and treatment are often not possible due to delayed ...

The quality of life in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We conducted a study to evaluate the quality of life in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy aged 8–18 years, compared with that in matched healthy controls. A total of 85 boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy aged 8–18 years and 136 age, sex and living

The lack of the Celf2a splicing factor converts a Duchenne genotype into a Becker phenotype [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Substitutions, deletions and duplications in the dystrophin gene lead to either the severe Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) or mild Becker muscular dystrophy depending on whether out-of-frame or in-frame transcripts are produced.

Synthesis, Biological Activity, and Molecular Dynamics Simulations of LNA‐Charge Neutral Linkages for Enhanced Splice‐Switching Antisense Oligonucleotides

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Splice‐switching oligonucleotides are used to treat severe genetic conditions including Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, but new chemistries are urgently required to improve their efficacy. In this work locked nucleic acid (LNA) is coupled to different charge neutral DNA backbones which are studied by structural, thermodynamic, and biological methods.
