Overview
Duchenne muscular dystrophy was first discovered by Guillaume Benjamin Amand Duchenne, a French neurologist, in 1860s. The association between genetic mutations and Duchenne muscular dystrophy was made in 1986. In 1987, dystrophin gene on X chromosome were first implicated in the pathogenesis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
