a. Levels of dystrophin B transcript expression (2-ΔΔCT values) in the skeletal muscle of two 5'XLDC patients (LT and SA), as compared to a control muscle (calibrator), using actin as reference gene. B upregulation resulted in 25- and 9-fold transcript levels in LT and SA, respectively. b Levels of dystrophin B transcript (2-ΔΔCT values) in the skeletal muscle of the same 5'XLDC patients, as compared to the level of dystrophin M transcript in a skeletal muscle control using actin as reference gene. The ratio was 0.67 and 0.28 in patients LT and SA, respectively.
