Identification of a first in-class integrin enhancing small molecule for the treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
(2015)Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a catastrophic X-linked neuromuscular disease that affects 1 in every 5000 males. DMD is caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene which results in the loss of dystrophin protein, an ... -
