Dystrophinopaties, eg, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy
and X-linked dilated cardiomyopathy are inherited neuromuscular diseases, characterized …

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by X-linked inherited or de novo DMD gene
mutations predominantly affecting males who develop early-onset muscle degeneration …

Establishing synaptic contacts between neurons is paramount for nervous system function.
This process involves transsynaptic interactions between a host of cell adhesion molecules …

The large DMD gene encodes a group of dystrophin proteins in brain and retina, produced
from multiple promoters and alternative splicing events. Dystrophins are core components of …

Multiple isoforms of dystrophin (Dp427, Dp260, Dp140, Dp71) are expressed differentially in
the central nervous system (CNS) including the retinal layers. Disruption of these protein …

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is associated with language disabilities and deficits in
learning and memory, leading to intellectual disability in a patient subpopulation. Recent …

Dystrophin (dys) mutations predispose Duchenne muscular disease (DMD) patients to brain
and retinal complications. Although different dys variants, including long dys products, are …

The severity of brain comorbidities in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) depends on the
mutation position within the DMD gene and differential loss of distinct brain dystrophin …

Understanding retinal vascular development is crucial because many retinal vascular
diseases such as diabetic retinopathy (in adults) or retinopathy of prematurity (in children) …

Purpose.: The study investigated possible asymmetric dysfunction of the ON and OFF visual
mechanisms in DMD (Duchenne muscular dystrophy) patients associated with specific …
