Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and Brain Function [PDF]

, 2012
Muscular dystrophies have historically been characterised according to clinical criteria, however in the genomic age the muscular dystrophies are now subdivided into groups according to the primary gene defect.

Proteomic profiling of Duchenne muscular dystrophy : protein patterns and candidate markers of disease [PDF]

, 2011
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.

PGC-1alpha regulates the neuromuscular junction program and ameliorates Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]

, 2007
The coactivator PGC-1alpha mediates key responses of skeletal muscle to motor nerve activity. We show here that neuregulin-stimulated phosphorylation of PGC-1alpha and GA-binding protein (GABP) allows recruitment of PGC-1alpha to the GABP complex and ...

Dystrophin glycoprotein complex dysfunction:a regulatory link between muscular dystrophy and cancer cachexia [PDF]

, 2005
Cachexia contributes to nearly a third of all cancer deaths, yet the mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle wasting in this syndrome remain poorly defined.

Sarcospan Regulates Cardiac Isoproterenol Response and Prevents Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy–Associated Cardiomyopathy

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2015
Background Duchenne 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 ...
