May underlie contractile dysfunction in Duchenne dystrophy; leaves open its specificity versus other myopathies.
Observational
Troponin activity of natural actomyosin is significantly decreased in Duchenne muscular dystrophy, which may directly relate to muscle dysfunction, while remaining normal in several other myopathies.
Tetsuo Furukawa (1972) conducted an observational in Muscle diseases. Muscular dystrophy vs. Other myopathies was evaluated on Troponin activity of natural actomyosin. Muscular dystrophy, especially the Duchenne type, was associated with greatly decreased troponin activity of natural actomyosin compared to other myopathies.
