Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies (DMD/BMD) are X-linked recessive neuromuscular disorders characterized by progressive irreversible muscle weakness and atrophy that affect both skeletal and cardiac muscles

<h3>What is Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy ?</h3>

Both Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy are caused by mutations in a protein called dystrophin

  • In Duchenne muscular dystrophy, functioning dystrophin is completely absent in muscle, while in Becker muscular dystrophy, there is some dystrophin present, although not enough for completely normal muscle function.

  • it usually affects boys in early childhood; people with the condition will usually only live into their 20s or 30s.
