Currently, the MDA is funding studies involving the therapeutic potential of heat shock protein 72 induction, which may play an important role in muscular dystrophy. Conducted at the University of Melbourne, the study looks to expand upon findings indicating that Hsp72 induction can improve the lifespan of mice with neuromuscular disorders. Another study involves the practice of strength training for children with the prevalent neuromuscular condition Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease. Although progressive resistance training may help individuals with CMT, the study sets out to explore possible harmful effects from such a treatment.
