Absence of correlation between skewed X inactivation in blood and serum creatine-kinase levels in Duchenne/Becker female carriers
4 Dec 1998
Abstract excerpt
The pattern of X inactivation in lymphocyte DNA was investigated in 107 Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) carriers (102 asymptomatic and 5 manifesting carriers) and 117 normal female controls of different ages, with the aim: a) to analyze the pattern of X inactivation in blood DNA of a large number of DMD/BMD carriers as compared to normal female controls; b) to determine if...
