Muscular Dystrophy(MD)
Muscular dystrophy is a progressive genetic disease that occurs in skeletal muscle, it is a disease of the muscle itself. Due to abnormal genes and their protein products, which result in a series of lesions, patients present with muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, muscle rigidity, muscular pseudohypertrophy, etc., with muscle weakness or, at some times, muscle rigidity as the main symptom. It can be divided into multiple clinical types based on the skeletal muscles and genes involved. According to different clinical manifestations or gene defects, clinical classifications are Congenital muscular dystrophy; Duchenne muscular dystrophy(DMD), Becker's muscular dystrophy(BMD), Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy(LGMD),Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy(FSHD) and so on. In the past, there has been lack of effective treatment to stop the disease from progressing for middle-late stage patients. It eventually leads to paralysis and deformity (deformities of the spine, limb joints, thoracic cage, etc.), which brings a huge burden to the family and society.
Now Wu Medical Center(WMC) has come up with a new treatment for muscular dystrophy, which can stop the development of the disease and restore muscle functions, so that patients maintain the ability to take care of themselves for a considerable period of time. If patient sticks to the treatment as required, his or her conditions can be maintained stable for a longer period of time. With muscle repair, muscle fiber regeneration and reconstruction, WMC can help correct complement proteins dystrophin, laminin α2, tenascin, etc., accompanied by comprehensive CAST therapy, which can effectively treat muscular dystrophy and improve patient’s movement, so that he/she can have the disease blocked, and maintain a complete and normal life, which can be very beneficial to the patient.
