A scalable, clinically severe pig model for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
2021-09-03
Abstract excerpt
Large animal models for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) are crucial for preclinical evaluation of novel diagnostic procedures and treatment strategies. Pigs cloned from male cells lacking DMD exon 52 ( DMD Δ52) resemble molecular, clinical and pathological hallmarks of DMD, but cannot be propagated by breeding due to death before sexual maturity. Therefore, female DMD +/- carriers were generated. A single fou...
