In vivo effects of protease inhibitors on chickens with hereditary muscular dystrophy.
Beginning on day 4 ex ovo, and every 3 d thereafter, genetically dystrophic Line 413 chickens were given intraperitoneal injections (4 mg/kg body wt) of a protease inhibitor, leupeptin, pepstatin, or antipain. Experimental chickens received protease inhibitors dissolved in a water:ethanol:dimethyl sulfoxide solution (50:40:10, vol:vol:vol). Control untreated animals received diluent injections....
متن کاملEnzymological studies on hereditary avian muscular dystrophy.
White and red muscles of normal and genetically dystrophic chickens were compared with regards to activity levels of three soluble enzymes, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, creatine phosphokinase, and acetyl phosphatase. In dystrophic white muscle (pectoral), activity of the two sulfhydryl enzymes, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and creatine phosphokinase, was preferentially ...
متن کاملStudies of Myosin in Hereditary Muscular Dystrophy in Mice.
In the light of current genetic knowledge, investigation of the primary abnormality of a hereditary disease is logically directed toward a genetically abnormal protein. Biochemical studies of hereditary human and animal progressive muscular dystrophy have revealed a variety of abnormalities such as elevated serum enzymes and lowered muscle enzyme activity, increased creatine excretion, and lowe...
متن کاملBrain function in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the second most commonly occurring genetically inherited disease in humans. It is an X-linked condition that affects approximately one in 3300 live male births. It is caused by the absence or disruption of the protein dystrophin, which is found in a variety of tissues, most notably skeletal muscle and neurones in particular regions of the CNS. Clinically DMD...
متن کاملUpper limb function in adults with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
OBJECTIVE To determine upper limb function and associated factors in adults with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SUBJECTS A sample of 70 men with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (age range 20-43 years). METHODS General motor function and, in particular, upper limb distal motor function, were assessed with the Motor Function Measure. Muscle strength and range of moti...
