Transcriptomic analysis of paired healthy human skeletal muscles to identify modulators of disease severity in DMD

Abstract excerpt

Muscle damage and fibro-fatty replacement of skeletal muscles is a main pathologic feature of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) with more proximal muscles affected earlier and more distal affected later in the disease course, suggesting that different skeletal muscle groups possess distinctive characteristics that influence their susceptibility to disease. To explore transcriptomic factors driving differential...
