Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by loss of dystrophin expression and leads to severe ambulatory and cardiac function decline. However, the dystrophin-deficient mdx murine model of DMD only develops a very mild form of the disease.

The Landscape of SPP1 + Macrophages Across Tissues and Diseases: A Comprehensive Review
SPP1+ macrophages represent a conserved, disease‐associated population present across cancerous and non‐cancerous conditions, involved in immunosuppression, fibrosis, lipid metabolism, phagocytosis, and other cellular processes. This review highlights their shared molecular programmes across tissues, their interactions with stromal and immune cells ...

In Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the loss of the dystrophin component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) compromises plasma membrane integrity in skeletal muscle, resulting in extensive muscle degeneration.

Abstract figure legend Fibro/adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) are cells resident in the muscle (skeletal and cardiac) niche. FAPs are active participants in the process of muscle degeneration in cardiovascular and neuromuscular diseases. Here, the accumulation of fatty and fibrous tissue is a hallmark.

Disuse‐induced muscle‐type specific alterations and adiponectin pathway response in male mice
(LeftPanel) HindLimb Unloading combined with Immobilization (HLUI) was used to induce Disuse Muscle Atrophy (DMA) via an optimized device that allow mouse displacements along the cage. As a result of muscle positioning during immobilization, the Soleus muscle was stretched and the Tibialis anterior (TA) muscle was shortened.

Mechanical and energetic properties of dystrophic (mdx) mouse muscle.
The mechanical and energetic properties of extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscles of X chromosome-linked muscular dystrophic mutant (mdx) mice aged 4-6 weeks were studied and compared with those of the muscles of normal mice. Maximum tetanic tension, the speed of contraction of relaxation, and the heat production of mdx soleus muscles were ...

Spontaneous locomotor activity of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) model mice was monitored using a cage system with external sensors. Mice received oral United State Pharmacopeia‐grade N‐acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), prednisolone (Pred)—a current standard of care for DMD—or a combination of both.

We previously reported that in the superior cervical ganglion (SCG) of dystrophic mdx mice, which lack full-length dystrophin, there is a loss of neurons projecting to SCG muscular targets, like the iris.

Introduction: Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a debilitating muscle wasting disorder with no cure. Safer supplements and therapies are needed to improve the severity of symptoms, as severe side effects are associated with the only effective ...

BackgroundThe Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies (DMD, BMD) show significant comorbid diagnosis for autism, and the genomic sequences encoding the proteins responsible for these diseases, the dystrophin and associated proteins, have been proposed ...
