New Approach for Antisense Oligonucleotide-Mediated Exon Skipping in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a lethalmuscle disorder characterized by mutations in the DMD gene. These mutations primarily disrupt the reading frame, resulting in the absence of functional dystrophin protein. Exon skipping, which involves the use of antisense oligonucleotides is a promising...
