[Various central nervous system involvements in dystrophinopathy: clinical and genetic considerations].

Abstract excerpt

Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies, generically called dystrophinopathy, are caused by mutations of the dystrophin gene. It is not surprising that mutations of the dystrophin gene cause various neurological symptoms, since dystrophin protein is found in the brain tissue as well as in the muscle fiber cell membrane. However, few studies have reported on the frequency of central nervous complications other...
