title: Phosphodiesterase activity in muscles of control and dystrophic mice.
abstract: Cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity was determined in the heart and in nine skeletal muscles of control and dystrophic Re 129/J male and female mice. Phosphodiesterase activity in the presence of 0.5 mM cyclic AMP of cyclic GMP was increased in all the muscle but the heart of dystrophic mice.
