Helderman‐van den Enden ATJM, van den Bergen JC, Breuning MH, Verschuuren JJGM, Tibben A, Bakker E, Ginjaar HB. Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy in the family: have potential carriers been tested at a molecular level?
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common inherited neuromuscular disease. After identification of the mutation in the index patient, family members can be reliably investigated...
Theoretically, 13% of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy may benefit from antisense-mediated skipping of exon 51 to restore the reading frame, which results in the production of a shortened dystrophin protein. We give a detailed description with longitudinal follow up of three patients with Becker muscular dystrophy with in-frame deletions in the DMD gene encompassing exon 51. Their internally...
