The dystrophin protein has well‐characterized roles in force transmission and maintaining membrane integrity during muscle contraction. Studies have reported decreased expression of dystrophin in atrophying muscles during wasting conditions, and that ...

Genetic modifiers of ambulation in the cooperative international Neuromuscular Research Group Duchenne natural history study [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: We studied the effects of LTBP4 and SPP1 polymorphisms on age at loss of ambulation (LoA) in a multiethnic Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) cohort.

Thermodynamic stability, unfolding kinetics, and aggregation of the N-terminal actin-binding domains of utrophin and dystrophin. [PDF]
Muscular dystrophy (MD) is the most common genetic lethal disorder in children. Mutations in dystrophin trigger the most common form of MD, Duchenne, and its allelic variant Becker MD.

The damage caused by myocardial infarction is exacerbated in the absence of collagen XV and leads to pathological remodelling and more severe left ventricle dysfunction (left panel) compared with the wild‐type littermates. These changes are accompanied by a wide‐ranging impact, including phenotypical (middle panel) and molecular (right panel) changes ...

Abstract This study investigated whether performing a translatable murine model of concurrent training after tumour induction affects adaptations in juvenile male and female tumour‐bearing mice. Male and female Balb/c mice were injected bilaterally with colon‐26 adenocarcinoma (C26) cells or PBS at 8 weeks of age.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy treatment with lentiviral vector containing mini‐dystrophin gene in vivo
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an incurable X‐linked recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. Many researchers aim to restore truncated dystrophin via viral vectors.

Biglycan : a multivalent proteoglycan providing structure and signals [PDF]
Research over the past few years has provided fascinating results indicating that biglycan, besides being a ubiquitous structural component of the extracellular matrix (ECM), may act as a signaling molecule.
