Key result
Serum parvalbumin levels were elevated in mice with X-linked dystrophy (mdx) and reduced in myotonic (ADR) mice, indicating its utility as a marker of muscle disease status.

Parvalbumin may reflect distinct muscle pathologies in murine models; leaves open clinical translation to human neuromuscular disease.
Jockusch et al. (1990) studied Muscle disease (murine dystrophy and myotonia). Serum parvalbumin (PV) levels vs. Normal mice was evaluated on Serum PV levels. Serum parvalbumin levels were elevated in mice with X-linked dystrophy (mdx) and reduced in myotonic (ADR) mice, indicating its utility as a marker of muscle disease status.
