摘要:
This invention relates to the field of muscular dystrophy and methods for its treatment in humans. This invention also concerns art-recognized animal models of Duchenne muscular dystrophy in dogs (GRMD) and mice mdx Another aspect concerns chimeric mutational vector7 capable of inducing reversion of generic mutations (i.e., gene repair) causing genetic disease by direct injection into affected tissue. Thus, more generally, the invention envisions direct injection of chimeric mutational vectors into affected tissues to effect gene repair therein.
