for the lack of observed translation. … Inhibition of myostatin as a potential therapeutic for
muscular dystrophy was first studied in the mdx mouse, which has a premature stop codon
in the gene for dystrophin and thus is a model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and
Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) [20] . Mdx mice lacking myostatin had increased myofiber …
