Twenty-one days of low-intensity eccentric training improve morphological characteristics and function of soleus muscles of mdx mice

Abstract Duchene muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by the absence of the protein dystrophin, which leads to muscle weakness, progressive degeneration, and eventually death due to respiratory failure. Low-intensity eccentric training (LIET) has been used as a rehabilitation method in skeletal muscle...
