Molecular pathways involved in the control of contractile and metabolic properties of skeletal muscle fibers as potential therapeutic targets for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in the gene encoding dystrophin, a subsarcolemmal protein whose absence results in increased susceptibility of the muscle fiber membrane to contraction-induced injury. This results in increased calcium influx, oxidative stress, and mitochondri...
