Muscular dystrophy is actually a group of disorders, all of which are caused by genetic mutations.

肌营养不良是一系列由于基因突变的功能紊乱。

He has duchenne muscular dystrophy which is ultimately a fatal disease.

他患有杜氏肌营养不良症，这最终是一种致命的疾病。

The genetic defects can cause muscular dystrophy, epilepsy, heart problems and intellectual disabilities.

基因缺陷可能会导致肌肉萎缩、癫痫、心脏问题和智力障碍。

This house is decorated in honor of my Michael eighteen who has muscular dystrophy.

这座房子是为了纪念我患有肌肉营养不良的18岁的迈克尔而装修的。

Unfortunately, there are no great treatments for Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy.

DMD或BMD暂时没有好的治疗方法。

These other muscular dystrophies, therefore end up causing a lot of the same symptoms as the dystrophinopathies.

这些肌营养不良症都是营养不良疾病，因此有许多相同的症状。

This distinguishes muscular dystrophy from other problems that cause muscle weakness as a result of nerve damage, like neuropathies.

这让肌营养不良区别于其它因神经损伤造成肌无力的因素，如神经损伤疾病。

Since this is linked to the X chromosome, both Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy are called X-linked recessive.

由于发病与X染色体有关联，DMD和BMD被称为X连锁隐性遗传。

Within that group, dystrophinopathies are the most common, which includes Duchenne muscular dystrophy, or DMD, and Becker muscular dystrophy, both of which result from mutations in the dystrophin gene.

这些功能紊乱中，营养不良疾病是最常见的，包括Duchenne型肌营养不良（DMD）和Becker型肌营养不良（BMD）；这二者都是由抗肌萎缩蛋白基因突变导致的。

He says this house belongs to a neighbor who has helped him raise over 2 million dollars for muscular dystrophy research.

他说，这所房子属于一位邻居，这位邻居帮助他筹集了200多万美元用于肌肉营养不良症的研究。

Editing the unhealthy cells of those suffering from genetic diseases such as Duchenne's muscular dystrophy and cystic fibrosis will alleviate their suffering.

编辑那些患有杜氏肌营养不良和囊性纤维化等遗传疾病的人的不健康细胞将减轻患者痛苦。

This means genetic diseases such as haemophilia, muscular dystrophy and cancers, in principle, might be " corrected" by editing the DNA of human embryos.

这意味着血友病、肌肉萎缩症和癌症等遗传疾病原则上可以通过编辑人类胚胎的 DNA 得到“纠正”。

Now, the fact that both Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy result from mutations in the same dystrophin gene means that they are " allelic disorders, "

DMD和BMD都是由于同一抗肌萎缩蛋白基因突变引起的，意味着二者是“等位基因疾病”。

Or maybe teased your buddy by saying he has muscular dystrophy?

或者通过说他患有肌肉萎缩症来取笑您的好友？

And then you would be one of hundreds of millions of people with a genetic disease, such as sickle cell anemia or progeria or muscular dystrophy or Tay-Sachs disease.

然后你将成为数亿遗传性疾病患者中的一员，比如镰状细胞性贫血、祖细胞性贫血、肌肉萎缩或泰—萨克斯病。

My middle child, Oliver, was born with a rare form of muscular dystrophy, or MD.

我的老二奥利弗生来就患有一种罕见的肌肉萎缩症，简称 MD。

In addition to those two, genetic mutations in other genes are responsible for several dozen other muscular dystrophies, some of which code for proteins that form a protein complex with dystrophin protein.

除了这两种疾病，其它基因的突变导致了其它几十种肌营养不良，其中一些基因编码形成抗肌萎缩蛋白相关蛋白复合体的蛋白质。

So in the future, we will likely have treatments for many terrible diseases, including cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy and sickle cell anemia.

所以在未来，我们可能会找到治疗许多可怕疾病的方法，包括囊性纤维化、肌肉萎缩症和镰状细胞性贫血。

On the other hand, mutations that allow for a misshapen protein to form, like missense mutations, lead to Becker muscular dystrophy which is basically a milder form of Duchenne muscular dystrophy that presents later on, usually between age 10 to 20.

另一方面，突变（如错义突变）会导致畸形蛋白形成，引发BMD，病情比DMD较轻，发病年龄较晚，一般在10到20岁。

These benefits include but are not limited to, obviously improved exercise performance, improve injury prevention and rehabilitation, improved post-exercise recovery, improved anti-aging, and even improved protection to diseases like Parkinson's and muscular dystrophy.

这些好处包括但不限于运动成绩的明显提高，预防伤害和提升康复能力，有助于运动后的恢复，还有抗衰老能力，甚至能预防帕金森症和肌肉萎缩症。
