Exercise exacerbates decline in the musculature of an animal model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy

2018-07-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic disorder caused by loss of the protein dystrophin. In humans, DMD has early onset, causes developmental delays, muscle necrosis, loss of ambulation, and early death. Current animal models have been challenged by their inability to model the early onset and severity of the disease. Thus it remains unresolved if increased sarcoplasmic calcium observed...
