Alternative utrophin mRNAs contribute to phenotypic differences between dystrophin‐deficient mice and Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal disorder caused by absence of functional dystrophin protein. Compensation in dystrophin‐deficient (mdx) mice may be achieved by overexpression of its fetal paralogue, utrophin. Strategies to increase utrophin levels by stimulating promoter activity using...
