ABSTRACT
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a serious and progressive hereditary muscle disease. The DMD gene mutation on the X chromosome causes the loss of dystrophin, causing progressive muscle weakness and muscular atrophy. Most patients die for heart and lung failure. Current gene therapy methods are mainly aimed at restoring the expression of dystrophin, including read-through therapy, exon skipping therapy, vector-mediated gene replacement therapy and gene editing therapy. This article reviews the mechanisms of these different treatments and important advances in clinical research, and analyzes the challenges and application prospects of these treatments.
