MUSCULAR DYSTROPHIES: CONTEMPORARY VIEWS ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE DISEASE
Keywords:
Muscular dystrophies, Duchenne, Becker, Myotonic dystrophyAbstract
Muscular dystrophies are hereditary disorders primarily affecting skeletal muscles. Several distinct types of the disease are recognized, the majority of which are caused by mutations in genes encoding structural or regulatory proteins of muscle cells. Today, modern genetic approaches to therapy have demonstrated promising results.
