It is caused by mutations in the DMD gene, leading to a complete absence of the dystrophin protein. Dystrophin is an important protein for stabilization of muscle cells. This books gives an overview of several strategies aiming to (partly) correct the underlying genetic defect and restoring dystrophin synthesis. Especially attention is given to antisense oligonucleotide mediated exon skipping. Furthermore various therapeutical strategies trying to alleviate the secondary symptoms are discussed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 140\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.33 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 15, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42105619611783,"sku":"9783659286834","price":96.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/b141def3956fa36bbc32032aca2e220e.webp?v=1732435862","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/therapeutic-approaches-for-duchenne-muscular-dystrophy-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
