POSSIBLE ROLE OF FIBRONECTIN IN THE PATHOGENESIS OF DUCHENNE'S MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY.
Fibronectin (FN) is a critical component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) of fibroblasts and muscle cells and contributes to the maintenance of cell cytoskeleton, shape, migration, growth and differentiation. Extensive accumulation of both collagen and FN occurs in skeletal muscle of patients with...
