NIH Rare Diseases: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a rapidly progressive form of muscular dystrophy that occurs primarily in boys. It is caused by a mutation in a gene, called the DMD gene, which encodes the muscle protein dystrophin. Boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy do not make the dystrophin protein in their muscles. Duchenne mucular dystrophy is inherited in an X-linked recessive fashion; however, it may also occur in people from families without a known family history of the condition. Individuals who have DMD have progressive loss of muscle function and weakness, which begins in the lower limbs. In addition to the skeletal muscles used for movement, DMD may also affect the muscles of the heart. There is no known cure for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Treatment is aimed at control of symptoms to maximize the quality of life.30
MalaCards: Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, also known as muscular dystrophy, duchenne, is related to muscular dystrophy and ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy. An important gene associated with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is RAB40AL (RAB40A, member RAS oncogene family-like), and among its related pathways are nNOS Signaling in Skeletal Muscle and Arginine and proline metabolism. The compounds urea and phosphocreatine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, retina and spinal cord, and related mouse phenotypes are respiratory system and limbs/digits/tail.
