Low human dystrophin levels prevent cardiac electrophysiological and structural remodelling in a Duchenne mouse model
Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive neuromuscular disorder caused by loss of dystrophin. This lack also affects cardiac structure and function, and cardiovascular complications are a major cause of death in DMD. Newly developed therapies partially restore dystrophin expressio...
