Hereditary muscular dystrophies [PDF]
Precise diagnostic of hereditary muscular diseases begins to change during recent years due to genetic achievements. Genetic defects discoveries typical for different clinical variants of muscular dystrophies give opportunity for creation of specific ...

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

Muscular dystrophy is a group of genetically determined muscular disorders marked by progressive wasting and weakness of the skeletal muscle, but which often affect cardiac and smooth muscles or other tissues. The patterns of inheritance are either dominant or recessive although the gene may be defective because of a new mutation.

Proteomic profiling of Duchenne muscular dystrophy : protein patterns and candidate markers of disease [PDF]
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene is a severe chronic muscle-wasting disease leading to early loss of ambulation in patients and to death by the third decade.

Skeletal muscle in health and disease
Skeletal muscle fibres are multinucleated cells that contain postmitotic nuclei (i.e. they are no longer able to divide) and perform muscle contraction.

Psychosis in a Patient with Muscular Dystrophy : Case Report and Literature Review
Introduction Knowledge about muscular dystrophies and in particular X-linked inherited disorders such as Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophy has been gradually acquired as more research studies have been conducted to better understand the ...

Exploiting the full power of temporal gene expression profiling through a new statistical test: Application to the analysis of muscular dystrophy data [PDF]
Background: The identification of biologically interesting genes in a temporal expression profiling dataset is challenging and complicated by high levels of experimental noise.

Dystrophin glycoprotein complex dysfunction:a regulatory link between muscular dystrophy and cancer cachexia [PDF]
Cachexia contributes to nearly a third of all cancer deaths, yet the mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle wasting in this syndrome remain poorly defined.
