Journal ArticleDOI

Candidate screening of the TRPC3 gene in cerebellar ataxia.

TL;DR: It is suggested that mutations in TRPC3 do not significantly contribute to the cause of late-onset and episodic human cerebellar ataxias.
Journal ArticleDOI

Embryonic myosin is a regeneration marker to monitor utrophin-based therapies for DMD.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that MyHC-emb is a robust marker of regeneration at different ages and in different skeletal muscles and provides translational support for the use of developmental myosin as a disease biomarker in DMD clinical trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Challenges to oligonucleotides-based therapeutics for Duchenne muscular dystrophy

TL;DR: In this review, the recent developments and clinical trials using antisense oligonucleotides for Duchenne muscular dystrophy are discussed, with emphasis on the challenges ahead for this type of therapy, especially with regards to delivery and regulatory issues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical Proteomics and Phenotypic Profiling Identifies the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor as a Molecular Target of the Utrophin Modulator Ezutromid

TL;DR: It is shown that the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a target of ezutromid and other reported AhR antagonists also upregulate utrophin, showing that this pathway, which is currently being explored in other clinical applications including oncology and rheumatoid arthritis, could also be exploited in future DMD therapies.
