works with mouse models of muscular dystrophy at Ohio State university in Columbus. She declined an interview request.
As the United states first genetically engineered (GE) pigs with muscular dystrophy, the creatures could be used to test treatments for the disease.
and now muscular dystrophy. Because pigs mimic these human diseases more closely than mice, they are desirable models for drug testing
Dystrophy drug hope The experimental drug eteplirsen may help patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a clinical trial of 12 boys with the condition reported on 3 october.
including Alzheimer s disease, cancer and muscular dystrophy. This work will be enriched by the discovery, reported in the genome paper,
In addition to tracheobronchomalacia pigs have been biomedical models for muscular dystrophy diabetes and other diseases. The team chose to use two-month-old pigs for this study
