Schwann cell-specific Dp116 is expressed in glioblastoma cells, revealing two novel DMD gene splicing patterns

Background: The DMD gene is one of the largest human genes, being composed of 79 exons. Dystrophin Dp116 expressed from the promoter in intron 55 is a Schwann cell-specific isoform. The pathophysiological roles of Dp116 are largely unknown, because of its limited expression. This study assessed the...
