Late-Stage Skeletal Muscle Transcriptome in Duchenne muscular dystrophy shows a BMP4-Induced Molecular Signature

2024-04-25

Abstract excerpt

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal X-linked recessive disease due to loss-of-function mutations in the DYSTROPHIN gene. DMD-related skeletal muscle wasting is typified by an aberrant immune response involving upregulation of TGFβ family of cytokines. We previously demonstrated that bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) is increased in DMD and BMP4 stimulation induces a 20-fold upregulation of Smad8 trans...
