Expression of heat‐shock/stress proteins in duchenne muscular dystrophy
1 Jan 1995
Abstract excerpt
Heat-shock/stress proteins (HSPs) are induced in response to stressful conditions and are essential for survival during and after cellular stress. We investigated whether dystrophin deficiency in muscle from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients induces HSPs. Immunohistochemical studies were performed on cryosections from normal muscle, heat-shocked muscle, and muscle from patients with DMD, dermatomyositis,...
