Low Intensity Training Provokes Adaptations on Muscle Fibrosis of a Muscular Dystrophy Model

SUMMARY Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic neuromuscular disorder with progressive clinical signs until death, around the second decade of life. Mdx is the most used animal model to pre-clinical studies of DMD. Parameters of exercise on this muscular disease are still unknown. This resea...
