Gene Delivery for Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy Type 2D by Isolated Limb Infusion - July 2019
Sustained alpha-sarcoglycan gene expression after gene transfer in limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, type 2D - November 2010
Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2D gene therapy restores alpha-sarcoglycan and associated proteins - September 2009
Early adenovirus-mediated gene transfer effectively prevents muscular dystrophy in alpha-sarcoglycan-deficient mice - August 2000
Several mouse models of sarcoglycan deficiency have been reported; two are cryopreserved at Jackson Laboratories.
B6.129S6-Sgcatm2Kcam/J (stock #008275)
Alpha-sarcoglycan deficiency verified by western blot, RT-PCR analysis and immunofluorescence staining of skeletal muscle. Mice develop progressive muscular dystrophy as early as 6 weeks of age.
B6.Cg-Sgcatm1KamTg(Ckm-SGCE)1Kcam/J (stock #009651)
Homozygous for both α- and ε-sarcoglycan deficiency. These mice have no overt phenotype but have an exaggerated response to mild exercise.
