Ribitol restores functionally glycosylated α-dystroglycan and improves muscle function in dystrophic FKRP-mutant mice
Mutations in FKRP impair glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan, leading to muscular dystrophy. Here, the authors show that oral administration of ribitol increases dystropglycan glycosylation and ameliorates symptoms of muscular dystrophy in FKRP-deficient mouse models.
