Restoration of Contractile Protein Expression and Colonic Smooth Muscle Function by Hydrogen Sulfide in DMD Mice
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), characterized by the lack of dystrophin, results from a mutation in the Xp21 gene which encodes for the protein dystrophin that links the extracellular matrix to the actin cytoskeleton in skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle. Slow colonic transit and chronic constip...
