The main goal of this project is to advance for an efficient therapy for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) based on a novel therapeutic approach. DMD is the most common and severe muscular dystrophy, affecting 1 in 3.500 to 5000 newborn male children. DMD is caused by the absence of dystrophin, an intracellular membrane-associated protein responsible for damping the mechanical stress from…
This proposal investigates the potential protectiveness of Notch signaling modulation in muscle satellite cells (MuSC) of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) patients. Hypothesis: Modulation of the Notch pathway signaling may delay motor function impairment of DMD patients by conserving the MuSC pool. Previous studies: Our group showed that the enhanced expression of the Notch ligand, Jagge…
