ABSTRACT Background Quantitative muscle MRI commonly evaluates disease activity and muscle wasting in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Disturbances in ion homeostasis contribute to DMD pathophysiology, but their relationships with disease progression is unclear. 23Na MRI may provide insights into the disease course and treatment response.

Genetic counselors' awareness and attitudes regarding gene therapies
Abstract There are 10 gene therapies (GTs) for hereditary conditions that are currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). While prior research demonstrates that the majority of healthcare providers lack knowledge regarding GTs, this has not been explored within the genetic counseling profession.

The Peptide PROTAC Modality: A New Strategy for Drug Discovery
Peptide PROTAC is a bifunctional molecule generally composed of a target protein binding peptide (TBP), a linker peptide (LP), an E3 ligase binding peptide (EBP), and a delivery‐enhancing peptide (DEP), which can bind to the target protein (P) and E3 ligase (E3), inducing P to be labeled with ubiquitin (Ub) and subsequently recognized and degraded by ...

Incidence of Radiologically Confirmed Fractures in Adults With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims An increased risk of low trauma fractures is well documented in children and adolescents with duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). There is limited evidence regarding the fracture incidence of adults with DMD. The aim of this study was to examine radiologically confirmed fractures in adults with DMD and review bone health ...

The apparent tissue potassium concentration (aTPC) measured by 39K MRI in fat‐replaced muscles of patients with neuromuscular disorders is impacted by the low concentration of potassium in fat. To assess the aTPC in remaining muscle tissue, we correct this impact using the intramuscular fat fraction (FF) measured by 1H MRI.
