Cell Lines Or Primary Cells
Animal Model mdx mouse (C57BL/10ScSn-Dmdmdx/J), male, treated from 4 weeks old
Administration Route IV (tail vein), weekly x4
Output Type In vivo exon skipping + dystrophin restoration
Output Value Exon skipping: gastrocnemius ~51%, triceps ~49%, diaphragm ~25%, heart ~12%. Dystrophin restoration: gastrocnemius ~17%, triceps ~17%, diaphragm ~2%, heart ~0.1%.
Output Units
Output Notes CPP-PMO produced significantly higher exon skipping and dystrophin restoration than naked PMO and CP10-PMO in vivo.
Toxicity Notes No significant differences in general liver/kidney function vs naked PMO; muscle damage biomarkers (AST/ALT/CK/LDH) decreased vs naked PMO in some measures.
