The muscle regeneration marker FOXP3 is associated with muscle injury in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

In Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the immune system cells (ISC) synthesize molecules to regulate inflammation, a process needed to regenerate muscle. The relationship between those molecules and the muscle injury is unknown. Monocytes belonging to ISC are regulated by omega-3 fatty acids ( ω-3 LCPUFAs) in DMD, but whether those fatty acids influence other ISC like T-cells is unknown.
