Height, weight, and body mass index trajectories and their correlation with functional outcome assessments in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
The analysis of height, weight, and BMI z‐score trajectories in boys with DMD from the FOR‐DMD study showed that higher baseline height was associated with slower subsequent growth, and older age with greater weight gain after glucocorticoid initiation.

Oxidative stress in Duchenne muscular dystrophy: focus on the NRF2 redox pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), an X-linked genetic disorder caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene and characterized by progressive, lethal muscle degeneration and chronic inflammation.

Nanospan, an alternatively spliced isoform of sarcospan, localizes to the sarcoplasmic reticulum in skeletal muscle and is absent in limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2F

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle, 2017
Background Sarcospan (SSPN) is a transmembrane protein that interacts with the sarcoglycans (SGs) to form a tight subcomplex within the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex that spans the sarcolemma and interacts with laminin in the extracellular matrix ...

The UK myotonic dystrophy patient registry: facilitating and accelerating clinical research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is the most frequent muscular dystrophy worldwide with complex, multi-systemic, and progressively worsening symptoms. There is currently no treatment for this inherited disorder and research can be challenging due to the ...

Therapeutic strategies to address neuronal nitric oxide synthase deficiency and the loss of nitric oxide bioavailability in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2017
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is a rare and fatal neuromuscular disease in which the absence of dystrophin from the muscle membrane induces a secondary loss of neuronal nitric oxide synthase and the muscles capacity for endogenous nitric oxide synthesis ...

Pharmacological intervention: Challenges and promising outcomes for fat loss and preservation of lean body mass in the treatment of overweight and type 2 diabetes

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Treatment with GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) is effective in reducing body weight in individuals with overweight and type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, measurements indicate that a considerable portion of the weight loss derives from fat‐free mass (FFM), including skeletal muscle, which may compromise metabolic health and physical function.
