Abstract:SummaryDuchenne Muscular Dystrophy is a genetic muscle disease characterized by chronic inflammation and fibrosis, which is mediated by a pro-fibrotic macrophage population expressing pro-inflammatory markers. The aim of this study was to characterize cellular events leading to the alteration of macrophage properties, and to modulate macrophage inflammatory status using the gaseous mediator H2S. We first analyzed the relationship between myofibers and macrophages in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne Muscular Dys… Show more
