Lifespan analysis of dystrophic <i>mdx</i> fast-twitch muscle morphology and its impact on contractile function
2021-09-08
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Duchenne muscular dystrophy is caused by the absence of the protein dystrophin from skeletal muscle and is characterized by progressive cycles of necrosis/regeneration. Using the dystrophin deficient mdx mouse model we studied the morphological and contractile chronology of dystrophic skeletal muscle pathology in fast twitch EDL muscles from animals 4-22 months of age containing 100% regenerate...
