Antisense-induced exon skipping and synthesis of dystrophin in the mdx mouse

2000-12-19

Abstract excerpt

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe muscle wasting\n disease arising from defects in the dystrophin gene, typically nonsense\n or frameshift mutations, that preclude the synthesis of a functional\n protein. A milder, allelic version of the disease, Becker muscular\n dystrophy, generally arises from in-frame deletions that allow\n synthesis of a shorter but still semifunctional protein. Therapies to\n int...
