Mechanical Properties of Maturing Dystrophic Skeletal Muscle

The main goal for my research was to challenge the long held belief that the mechanical properties of maturing dystrophic compared to control skeletal muscle membranes are weaker, leading to onset of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). We built on a previous report from our lab that suggested sarcol...
