Myelination is delayed during postnatal brain development in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2017
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.

Exosomal CCT6A Secreted by Cancer‐Associated Fibroblasts Interacts with β‐Catenin to Enhance Chemoresistance and Tumorigenesis in Gastric Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 38, October 13, 2025.
Here, it is revealed that CAF‐secreted exosomal CCT6A enhances stemness, chemoresistance, and glycolysis in GC via the β‐catenin/c‐Myc/DDIT4‐TXNIP axis. Furthermore, CCT6P1, a pseudogene of CCT6A, is identified as upregulating CCT6A by competitively binding miR‐922, while c‐Myc transcriptionally activates both CCT6P1 and CCT6A.

Pharmacological inhibition of PKCθ counteracts muscle disease in a mouse model of duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Inflammation plays a considerable role in the progression of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), a severe muscle disease caused by a mutation in the dystrophin gene. We previously showed that genetic ablation of Protein Kinase C θ (PKCθ) in mdx, the mouse

Components of the NGF signaling complex are altered in mdx mouse superior cervical ganglion and its target organs

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2008
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.

Genetic diagnosis as a tool for personalized treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Accurate definition of genetic mutations causing Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) has always been relevant in order to provide genetic counseling to patients and families, and helps to establish the prognosis in the case where the distinction between ...

Sarcospan Regulates Cardiac Isoproterenol Response and Prevents Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy-Associated Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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 ...

Muscular dystrophy in the mdx mouse is a severe myopathy compounded by hypotrophy, hypertrophy and hyperplasia

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle, 2015
Preclinical testing of potential therapies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is conducted predominantly of the mdx mouse. But lack of a detailed quantitative description of the pathology of this animal limits our ability to evaluate the effectiveness

Biglycan : a multivalent proteoglycan providing structure and signals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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.

Novel long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in Myogenesis: A miR-31 overlapping lncRNA transcript controls myoblast differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Transcriptome analysis allowed the identification of new long noncoding RNAs differentially expressed during murine myoblast differentiation. These transcripts were classified on the basis of their expression under proliferating versus differentiated ...
