Extracellular RNAs in Urine May Work as Biomarker for Duchenne and Myotonic Dystrophy Patients
Extracellular RNAs found in urine may be able to serve as non-invasive biomarkers of how patients with muscular dystrophy — especially those with an adult-onset and the more common Duchenne MD form — are responding to therapy, a study reports.
Urine-sample tests for these RNAs may also lessen the need for invasive approaches like muscle biopsies in these patients and in others with similar diseases.
