Rinsho Shinkeigaku, 2013 No effective treatment was available for myotonic dystrophy, even in animal model. We have established a new antisense oligonucleotide delivery to skeletal muscle of mice with bubble liposomes, and led to increased expression of chloride channel (CLCN1) protein and the amelioration of myotonia.

Antenatal Indomethacin Treatment for Congenital Myotonic Dystrophy
Case Reports in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2019 Myotonic dystrophy is an autosomal-dominant disorder. Its congenital type is the most severe form, with respiratory failure that can be a life-threatening event after birth. There are no antenatal treatments that can improve neonatal outcomes of myotonic
