THE PHYSIOLOGICAL CONSEQUENCES OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF DYSTROPHIN FOLLOWING ANTISENSE BASED EXON-SKIPPING IN THE MDX MOUSE
Journal Article
Muses, S., Godfrey, C., McClorey, G., Wells, K. E., Coursindel, T., Terry, R. L., …Wells, D. J. (in press). THE PHYSIOLOGICAL CONSEQUENCES OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF DYSTROPHIN FOLLOWING ANTISENSE BASED EXON-SKIPPING IN THE MDX MOUSE. Neuromuscular Disorders, 25, S312-S313. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nmd.2015.06.450

We examined the effects on muscle physiology of restoring different levels of dystrophin in mdx mice with established dystrophic pathophysiology (12 weeks and older). Dystrophin expression was induced very efficiently using cell penetrating peptides...

Preventing phosphorylation of dystroglycan ameliorates the dystrophic phenotype in mdx mouse
Journal Article
Miller, G., Moore, C. J., Terry, R. L., La Riviere, T., Mitchell, A., Piggott, R., …Winder, S. J. (in press). Preventing phosphorylation of dystroglycan ameliorates the dystrophic phenotype in mdx mouse. Human Molecular Genetics, 21(20), 4508-4520. https://doi.org/10.1093/hmg/dds293

Loss of dystrophin protein due to mutations in the DMD gene causes Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Dystrophin loss also leads to the loss of the dystrophin glycoprotein complex (DGC) from the sarcolemma which contributes to the dystrophic phenotype. Tyr...
