Summary:
Analysis of biceps and deltoids of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) subjects and their unaffected first-degree relatives. FSHD is progressive neuromuscular disorder affecting biceps more severely than deltoid muscles. Results provide insight into molecular basis of FSHD pathogenesis.
