Early Developmental Changes of Muscle Acetylcholine Receptors Are Little Influenced by Dystrophin Absence in <i>mdx</i> Mouse

Dystrophin is a cytoskeletal protein contributing to the organization of the neuromuscular junction. In Duchenne muscular dystrophy, due to dystrophin absence, the distribution of endplate acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) becomes disorganized. It is still debated whether this is due to the absence of...
