Sulfur amino acid supplementation displays therapeutic potential in a C. elegans model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy
https://t.co/vOd1LMhtnQ
A C. elegans model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy reveals a potential role for disrupted sulfur metabolism in the disease and thus the therapeutic potential of sulfur amino acid supplementation.

For now, we will be opening up all 24 space-flown experimental cassettes so that we can put all 72 worm-containing bags in the freezer. Our next step will be preparing for analysis #staytuned#wormsinspace#MME2
We have now opened our first experimental cassette! Here you can see three space-flown bags, which contain the worms in their liquid food π π¦ #wormsinspace#MME2
EXCITING NEWS! The MME2 worms have made it back to Earth and are now in the Ohio labs. Here is a picture of one of the experimental cassettes we have removed from the freezer ready for opening. Stay tuned for more updates. #wormsinspace#MME2@ohiou@spacegovuk@UNAD_Research
