Biomarkers in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Current Heart Failure Reports, 2022This review highlights the key studies investigating various types of biomarkers in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).Several proteomic and metabolomic studies have been undertaken in both human DMD patients and animal models of DMD that have identified potential biomarkers in DMD.

Casimersen for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Drugs of Today, 2021Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic disorder affecting 1 in 5,000 males which causes progressive muscle deterioration, loss of mobility and eventual death, with an average lifespan of around 25 years. While no cure currently exists for DMD, a novel treatment known as antisense-mediated exon skipping therapy has shown great promise.

Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy are X-linked muscle-wasting disorders that arise from mutations in the gene coding for dystrophin. The incidence of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is approximately 1 in 3500 live male births, one-third of which are sporadic with no previous family history. In the absence of dystrophin, patients with DMD exhibit

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1991
Progress in understanding the role of dystrophin raises promising hopes for a treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. In addition, great improvements have been made in the ability to diagnose this disease using simple molecular methods.

What is Duchenne muscular dystrophy? Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a muscle-wasting condition caused by the lack of a protein called dystrophin. It usually affects only boys. About 100 boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy are born in the UK each year and there are about 2,500 boys and young men known to be living with the condition in the UK at any ...

Muscular fatigue in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Neurology, 1995We used a 4-minute sustained maximum voluntary contraction to investigate fatigability of the anterior tibial muscle in eight healthy boys and 11 boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) (ages 5 to 10 years). Before exercise, the force generation of dystrophic muscle and the compound muscle action potential amplitude were lower and half-relaxation ...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked disease of muscle caused by an absence of the protein dystrophin. Affected boys begin manifesting signs of disease early in life, cease walking at the beginning of the second decade, and usually die by age 20 years. Until treatment of the basic genetic defect is available, medical, surgical, and rehabilitative

Human Genetics, 1977
By a general survey in the hopitals of northeast Italy, Duchenne cases have been located and identified over a 20-year period. In a more restricted area screening for Duchenne carriers has been carried out in affected families. This procedure made possible an exact estimate of the incidence rate, prevalence rate, and mutation rate in a large sample of ...

Neuroblastoma in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Pediatrics, 1986To the Editor.— In reporting two patients with neuroblastoma and cystic fibrosis, Moss et al1 noted that "reports of cystic fibrosis and other genetic abnormalities in individual patients are usually regarded as chance associations." We encountered an analogous situation in caring for a boy in whom stage III neuroblastoma ...

Echocardiography in duchenne muscular dystrophy
Muscle & Nerve, 1980AbstractThe cardiac function of 36 males with Duchenne muscular dystrophy was evaluated by echocardiography, and the results were compared with the results of other tests of cardiac involvement, including serum creatine kinase isoenzyme evaluation, electrocardiography, chest x‐ray, and physical examination of the heart and lungs.
