Signaling pathways upregulated in DMD samples were involved in several processes such as cell migration and remodeling of extracellular matrix (FGF, Collagen, Laminin), nerve growth and reinnervation (NCAM, NGF, and NPR2), and inflammation (MHC-I, CXCL, THBS). This evidence concerns the gene NCAM1 and Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
