Abstract
⺠Dilated cardiomyopathy is an inevitable complication of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. ⺠Here we review recent studies on identified disease mechanisms on the cellular level. ⺠The disease is associated with cellular oxidative stress and abnormal Ca2 + signaling. ⺠Targeting these alterations may offer new treatment options in the future.
