Evidence for ACTN3 as a genetic modifier of Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by muscle degeneration and progressive weakness. There is considerable inter-patient variability in disease onset and progression, which can confound the results of clinical trials.

Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe life‐limiting X‐linked neuromuscular disorder characterised by progressive skeletal muscle degeneration and respiratory failure. The mdx mouse, lacking dystrophin, is the most widely used preclinical model of DMD, yet the trajectory of respiratory dysfunction in this model remains incompletely ...

Prmt5 is a regulator of muscle stem cell expansion in adult mice. [PDF]
Skeletal muscle stem cells (MuSC), also called satellite cells, are indispensable for maintenance and regeneration of adult skeletal muscles. Yet, a comprehensive picture of the regulatory events controlling the fate of MuSC is missing.

In vivo RNA editing of point mutations via RNA-guided adenosine deaminases. [PDF]
We present in vivo sequence-specific RNA base editing via adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes with associated ADAR guide RNAs (adRNAs). To achieve this, we systematically engineered adRNAs to harness ADARs, and comprehensively evaluated the

Abstract figure legend Low‐dose lithium supplementation in ovariectomized mice enhances skeletal muscle contractility (isometric force and fatigue resistance), SERCA function and promotes favourable transcriptional reprogramming, while increasing bone density and modestly improving insulin sensitivity.

Temporal Bayesian classifiers for modelling muscular dystrophy expression data [PDF]
The analysis of microarray data from time-series experiments requires specialised algorithms, which take the temporal ordering of the data into account. In this paper we explore a new architecture of Bayesian classifier that can be used to understand how

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.

Review: Dystroglycan in the Nervous System [PDF]
Dystroglycan is part of a large complex of proteins, the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex, which has been implicated in the pathogenesis of muscular dystrophies for a long time.

Sarcospan Regulates Cardiac Isoproterenol Response and Prevents Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy-Associated Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
BackgroundDuchenne muscular dystrophy is a fatal cardiac and skeletal muscle disease resulting from mutations in the dystrophin gene. We have previously demonstrated that a dystrophin-associated protein, sarcospan (SSPN), ameliorated Duchenne muscular ...
