Moderate-term dimethyl fumarate treatment reduces pathology of dystrophic skeletal and cardiac muscle in a mouse model

This study shows that moderate-term dimethyl fumarate treatment reduces dystrophic muscle pathology in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, with anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, and anti-lipogenic effects.

Loss of endogenous estrogen alters mitochondrial metabolism and muscle clock-related protein Rbm20 in female mdx mice

This study shows that estrogen loss in female mdx mice reduces exercise capacity and mitochondrial metabolism, but estrogen replacement therapy can reverse these effects and upregulate Rbm20.

Near-chromosome level genome assembly of the fruit pest Drosophila suzukii using long-read sequencing

This paper improves the genome assembly of Drosophila suzukii using long-read sequencing, resulting in a higher quality and more contiguous genome compared to previous short-read assemblies.
