In the article “Eteplirsen treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy: Exon skipping and dystrophin production” by J.S. Charleston et al.,1 the Acknowledgment is incomplete. It should also include “The authors also gratefully acknowledge Dr. Steven A. Moore, the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics Histology Laboratory, and the Iowa Wellstone Muscular Dystrophy Cooperative Research Center (NIH grant U54, NS053672) for providing frozen sections of non-dystrophic control muscle biopsies, Becker muscular dystrophy muscle biopsies, and untreated DMD biopsy samples from the PROMOVI clinical study described in this manuscript. Dr. Moore also assisted in establishing criteria for defining dystrophin positive muscle fibers.” The authors regret the omission.
