## Abstract The __mdx__ mouse is the most commonly used animal model for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a disease caused by the absence of dystrophin. Although much has been done to elucidate the structure and function of dystrophin and the dystrophinβassociated glycoprotein complex (DGC), litt
The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of prednisone treatment for 8 weeks on the level of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta1), hydroxyproline (HYP) concentrations, and level of the mature, nonreducible collagen cross-link hydroxylysylpyridinoline (HP) in diaphragm muscle from
