DMD would be treatable if dystrophin was injected into the bloodstream. This would circulate throughout the body and slow down the rate of decay of the muscles.
Another way would be to create a pill that would supply a large amount of dystrophin throughout the body. It would also have the same effect.
Why Biotechnology is Important
Biotechnology is important because DMD cannot be cured by surgery or other ways.
Important Processes of Treating DMD Cellular Reproduction
Cells that are affected by the lack of dystrophin allow molecules that are not supposed to enter skeletal muscle, which leads to an explosion of the cells. The cells are not able to reproduce effectively without the consumption of dystrophine.
Protein Synthesis
Protein synthesis is important because DMD prevents the production of dystrophin.
