ABSTRACT
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a lethal X-linked recessive genetic disease, is characterized by progressive muscle wasting which will lead to premature death by cardiorespiratory complications in their late twenties. And 2.5-19% DMD carriers that also suffer from skeletal muscle damage or dilated cardiomyopathy when diagnosed as soon as possible is meaningful for prenatal diagnosis and advance warning for self-health. The current DMD carrier screening mainly relies on detecting serum creatine kinase activity, covering only 50-70% DMD carriers which will cause many false negatives and require the discovery of highly effective biomarker and simple detection procedure for DMD carriers. In this article, we have compiled a comprehensive summary of all documented biomarkers associated with DMD and categorized them based on their expression patterns. We specifically pinpointed novel DMD biomarkers, previously unreported in DMD carriers, and conducted further investigations to explore their potential. Compared to creatine kinase activity alone in DMD carriers, creatine kinase-MM can improve the specificity from 73 to 81%. And our investigation revealed another promising protein proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase receptor (RET). When combined with creatine kinase-MM (creatine kinase-MM/RET ratio), it significantly enhances the specificity (from 81 to 83%) and sensitivity (from 71.4 to 93%) of detecting DMD carriers in serum. Moreover, we successfully devised an efficient method for extracting RET from dried blood spots. This breakthrough allowed us to detect both creatine kinase-MM and RET using dried blood spots without compromising the detection rate.
