Periostin exon 17 skipping enhances the efficacy of local AAV-microdystrophin administration in a fibrotic model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy
2025-01-22
Abstract excerpt
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe, progressive genetic disorder primarily affecting boys, characterized by muscle degeneration due to mutations in the DMD gene encoding dystrophin, a crucial protein for muscle fiber integrity. The disease leads to significant muscle weakness and eventually to loss of ambulation. AAV-microdystrophin gene therapy shows promise in preclinical and clinical settings. Howeve...
