Document Summary
Individuals with dmd do not express dystrophin protein in their muscle fibers. Duchenne md and becker md: a) healthy, b) becker md, c) duchenne md, d) female carrier of duchenne. Destructive myopathies: familial: mdx mouse is a model of dmd because it lacks dystrophin, many of the other dystrophies are a result of defects in other components of. In these mice, the regeneration (repair) outweighs the destruction the dystrophin complex: limb girdle md sarcoglycans, congenital md laminin, these dystrophies are also by affecting different muscle groups different onsets characterized and having. Destructive myopathies: familial: (a) duchenne md and becker md, (b) emery-dreifuss md, (c) limb girdle md, (d) facioscapulohumeral md, (e) distal md, (f) oculopharyngeal md. Destructive myopathies: idiopathic (inflammatory: muscle fiber necrosis (apoptosis??, prior to 1972 there was no knowledge of apoptosis, muscle research is now starting to better define this type of cell death.
