Myodystrophy, a new myopathy on chromosome 8 of the mouse.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Lane P W, Beamer T C, Myers D D

Abstract excerpt

A new recessive mutation, myd, causing a diffuse and progressive myopathy in the mouse is described. Histopathological comparisons with normal littermates showed widely distributed focal lesions in all skeletal muscles of myd/myd. Body and organ weights of affected mice were considerably less than those of normal littermates and the mean lifespan of myodystrophic mice that survived weaning was 17 weeks with a...
