Antisense-mediated exon skipping aiming for reading frame restoration is currently a promising therapeutic application for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). This approach is mutation specific, but as the majority of DMD patients have deletions that cluster in hotspot regions, the skipping of a smal

## Abstract ## Background Antisense‐mediated exon skipping is a putative treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Using antisense oligonucleotides (AONs), the disrupted DMD reading frame is restored, allowing generation of partially functional dystrophin and conversion of a severe Duchenne

## Exon skipping to change Duchenne into Becker dystrophy The exon-skipping technique tries to change a Duchenne into a Becker mutation. If a deletion or a point mutation disturbs the reading frame, and thus causes Duchenne dystrophy, the reading frame can be restored by removing one or more exons

## Abstract ## Background Targeted splice modulation of pre‐mRNA transcripts by antisense oligonucleotides (AOs) can correct the function of aberrant disease‐related genes. Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) arises as a result of mutations that interrupt the open‐reading frame in the DMD gene encod
