Abstract
The dystrophin-glycoprotein complex was examined in dystrophin-deficient dogs with golden retriever muscular dystrophy (GRMD) using immunoblot and immunofluorescence analysis. The dystrophin-associated proteins were substantially reduced in muscle from dogs with GRMD. Interestingly, regression analysis revealed a strong correlation between the amount of alpha-dystroglycan and serum creatine kinase levels and the contraction tension measured for a given peroneus longus muscle.Entities:
