Podocyte specific exon skipping after disease onset improves kidney pathology and function in a mouse model of Alport syndrome [PDF]
Alport syndrome (AS) is a hereditary kidney disorder caused by mutations in COL4A3, COL4A4, and COL4A5, which often lead to progressive renal failure.

Effective exon skipping and dystrophin restoration by 2'-o-methoxyethyl antisense oligonucleotide in dystrophin-deficient mice. [PDF]
Antisense oligonucleotide (AO)-mediated exon-skipping therapy is one of the most promising therapeutic strategies for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and several AO chemistries have been rigorously investigated. In this report, we focused on the effect

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe, progressive muscle-wasting disorder, while Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is milder muscle disease [1]. Both are caused by mutations in dystrophin, a protein, which stabilizes muscle fibers during contraction by linking muscle actin to the extracellular matrix.

Networking to Optimize Dmd exon 53 Skipping in the Brain of mdx52 Mouse Model
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in the DMD gene that disrupt the open reading frame and thus prevent production of functional dystrophin proteins. Recent advances in DMD treatment, notably exon skipping and AAV gene therapy, have

Exon-Skipping in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a devastating, rare disease. While clinically described in the 19th century, the genetic foundation of DMD was not discovered until more than 100 years later. This genetic understanding opened the door to the development of genetic treatments for DMD.

Advances in Dystrophinopathy Diagnosis and Therapy
Dystrophinopathies are x-linked muscular disorders which emerge from mutations in the Dystrophin gene, including Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy, and dilated cardiomyopathy.
