NINDS Small Business Funding Leads to New Therapy for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

https://www.niams.nih.gov/ninds-small-business-funding-leads-new-therapy-duchenne-muscular-dystrophy

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a rare form of muscular dystrophy primarily affecting young boys. ReveraGen BioPharma, a company supported by a small business grant from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), has developed a new drug for DMD, a genetic muscle-wasting disease.

Data Analysis: Transcriptional signature primes human oral mucosa for rapid wound healing

https://www.niams.nih.gov/labs/morasso-lab/data/transcriptional-signature

This study examines gene expression in human oral and skin at baseline (unwounded; day 1) and at days 3 and 6 of healing. Given that there are 6 groups, there are a number of interesting comparisons that are possible. As an example, we provide detailed instructions to determine differences between unwounded oral vs. skin (oral day 1 vs. skin day 1).
