Induction of a local muscular dystrophy using electroporation in vivo: an easy tool for screening therapeutics
Abstract Intramuscular injection and electroporation of naked plasmid DNA (IMEP) has emerged as a potential alternative to viral vector injection for transgene expression into skeletal muscles. In this study, IMEP was used to express the DUX4 gene into mouse tibialis anterior muscle. DUX4 is normall...
